Creative Secrets-Behind the magic

The world loves to tell us that creativity is a divine accident — a lightning bolt you can’t control. But in this episode, Karina Kampe and Maria Wronski-Ellis pull back the curtain to show you how creativity is not an accident at all. With stories of Sting, Picasso, Beyoncé, and Donald Glover, they reveal how reframing, play, and alter egos can unlock new perspectives. You’ll also get two hands-on exercises — Object Writing and The Alter Ego Effect — plus the latest science on how the brain sparks creativity. And of course, we share our own tiny experiments, laughs, and some poetic surprises along the way.

This is a practical, inspiring guide for anyone who wants to stop waiting for inspiration and start building the conditions where creativity thrives.


Topics covered 

  • Sting’s two-year writer’s block and his breakthrough with The Last Ship
  • Picasso’s “child mode” and the art of staying a beginner
  • Beyoncé’s Sasha Fierce and Donald Glover’s Childish Gambino as alter egos
  • Neuroscience of creativity (default mode network, constraints, and risk-taking)
  • Object Writing: a 10-minute creative exercise
  • Building and using your own Alter Ego for fearless creation
  • Tiny Experiments check-in and new challenges
  • How mindfulness and presence fuel creativity
  • Celebrating the small wins and preparing for Season 2
