This week, Anna + Katie discuss a listener question from Daniel which is, "How do you encourage and support the people in your life who are using their creativity?" Here's their list: 1. Acknowledge their effort. (Say something nice) 2. Be a good listener (Ask them a question about it!) 3. Express interest with no negativity. 4. Bilndly encourage (them to think/spend more time on it) 5. Use your own creativity 6. Give them room to experiment (& fail) 7. Encourage their interest & the things they are naturally good at. (And tell them they can do it!) 8. Encourage them to work hard (Ask if you can hold them accountable) 9. Tell them you believe in them. 10. Actually believe in them. In this episode, Anna + Katie candidly discuss the reality that while every human is creative, not everyone is living in the vulnerable space of using their creativity daily. A + K believe that you are qualified and you have permission to do whatever you'd like to do with your life and say, "When you're doing scary things.. the tiniest amount of encouragement can go so far." Katie goes on to clarify that it "might be scary to start, it might be scary to talk about, or it might be scary to keep going," but this is the work you must do in your life! They discuss the ways all humans desire to be seen, heard, & known and talk about what it means to give your friends room to fail. Katie works towards debunking the myth of "the best" and together they clarify that you don't have to be good at something the day you start! "People are capable of so much."
