Ep 268: BURNOUT! Emily Heird breaks down what it is, what it's not, and what steps you can take to get better
As awareness of both the shiny clock towers and the most hidden caves of mental health grows, it's become increasingly common to self- or misdiagnose. 'Burnout' can be tossed around too lightly. I've done it myself. I came to understand what I felt was overwhelm. I'm joined by Cognitive Performance Strategist and burnout coach Emily Herird to discuss a condition intertwined with the crazed pace of our 21st century lives. She explains what burnout is, what it's not, and what steps ...

Ep 266: RECLAIM THE THRONE! Why regaining ownership of our minds begins with our arses
Reclaim the Throne is The Creative Condition’s campaign to recognise the need for a downtime revolution. The resistance to the big tech coup of our minds starts with our arses. From there, we will reclaim the bus stop, the park bench, the underground train, the taxi, waiting rooms, receptions, and the good old walk from A to B. These clutches of two, five, and ten-minute windows add up to a valuable, regular chunk of time to spend on something better than the algorithm sludg...

Ep 265: Choosing to be Creative with Zorana Pringle, Yale University Centre for Emotional Intelligence Senior Research Scientist

I'm joined by Zorana Pringle, the Yale University Centre for Emotional Intelligence Senior Research Scientist and author of The Creativity Choice in which she challenges these damaging misunderstandings.

Ep 264: Jessica Hische and Timothy Goodman on the PERSONAL in work live at Paradiso
Personal. Work. Personal work. What does any of it mean, and is there a rule about how personal work needs to be, or whether work and personal are best separate? Of course not! In creativity, there are no rules. I had the delight of chairing a conversation about all this between lettering artist and author Jessica Hische, and artist Timothy Goodman live at the inaugural Paradiso festival in Mérida, Yucatan, Mexico, and you can hear it now. A huge thank you to the co-founders of Paradiso...

Ep 263: Tala Schlossberg on why being nice and making art is an act of counter culture in a turbulent world
Within minutes of meeting artist Tala Schlossberg ahead of our discussion panel with photographer Owen Harvey at the inaugural Paradiso in Mérida, Mexico, we were into the deep stuff.

We covered human connection during the discussion panel, but there was so much more to be said. So, we caught up a few weeks later and got into the ongoing battle to stay mentally balanced, as a sensitive ...
