Episode 62: Back to School, Back to Creativity

August 16, 2025

Todays Crew

Greg, Alessandra, Devin, Shadows Pub, Hillary, Bobby B


Today we asked the question:

If you could design your own “School of Creativity,” what classes or experiences might you include?


Summary

Today's crew answered a simple question:
If you could design your own School of Creativity, what would you teach and how would people learn?

The crew explored learning styles, program design, safety in learning, mentorship, mixed media delivery, and even angel investing as a creative path.

The theme:
creativity flourishes when people can choose how they learn, feel safe to explore, and have access to both wisdom and practical tools.

Back-to-school season isn’t just for kids. Today the team reframed “school” as a flexible, human-centric space where curiosity leads and structure supports.

  • Devin introduced angel investing as a creative practice and mapped the “spokes on a wheel” approach to interests.
  • Alessandra spotlighted the power of synchronous, live learning for motivation and follow-through.
  • Hillary laid out a tiered, mixed-media curriculum that adapts to different learners, with a vision for “CAD Coven” to mentor AutoCAD pros in the soft skills missing from industry onboarding.
  • Shadows championed self-guided study through books and articles over formal courses.

Creative Work Hour Podcast – Episode 58

Can Getting Lost Lead to a Breakthrough?
Released: July 5, 2025

Crew: Alessandra, Greg, Devin, Shadows Pub, Michael J, Bobby B, Wai Ling, Hillary


Episode Summary

On this post–July 4th episode (or as Greg jokes, “Treason Day”), the Creative Work Hour crew dives into the idea: Can getting lost or veering off track actually lead to unexpected breakthroughs in creative work and life? Each member of the roundtable shares honest stories of confusion, detours, and how embracing the “messy middle” has led to new skills, insights, or even joy.


Highlights & Takeaways

Alessandra

  • Takeaway: Getting lost is part of any creative or ensemble process—especially in music performance. Alessandra describes marking her scores with “I got lost here” not as a failure, but as a reminder to listen to others and let go of control.
  • Quote: “It’s important I loosen my grip a little bit so I can fly into something much bigger. Because creative work isn’t about being right—it’s about what wants to be said and how it wants to be said.”

Greg

  • Takeaway: Sometimes the best discoveries come from wandering off the map. Greg draws a parallel with travel, noting th
