Dear Creativity...one hundred and just getting started 🎉
|
Dear Creativity, Lately, I have been thinking a lot about the number 100 and how it shows up in our lives. Yesterday, The Hatchery reached 100 members. One hundred people who said yes to building something creative, honest, and brave — together. That feels big. It reminded me of other 100s. Still, 100 has a solid feel to it. So I’ve been wondering — what does it mean to cross 100 in a space like The Hatchery? In a place designed for the hatching of ideas? Maybe it’s not about a finish line at all. Maybe it’s a signal that the incubator is warm, the energy is rising, and it’s time to start asking what’s next, not with pressure, but with possibility and extensive partnership with you, Creativity. Thank you for sticking with me through the slow build. And for showing me that every small step adds up, even if I don’t notice it until I look back and count. So now I am wondering: Innovatively yours, |

When it comes to priorities and task management, I want the structure, and I don’t want the structure. I crave a system… until it boxes me in. That’s when I...
Dear Creativity, It almost feels like you’ve been in two places at once. Here with me in my home office/creative studio, tuning into Speak & Write on my screen… and in San Diego, where Lisa Nichols and her team of speakers have been dropping golden nuggets of wisdom for the past two days. Last year, I was fortunate enough to attend in person. The energy, the buzz in the hallways, the inspiration spilling out around every corner — it was electrifying. This year, hunkered down at my desk, I...
Dear Creativity, Two years ago, I wrote you a letter.It was the day The Innovation Doctor opened its doors. I promised you I would help professionals see that creativity isn’t reserved for tech companies or design firms.I dreamed of inclusive communities, playful innovation, and the joy of watching people discover their creative superpowers.I said yes to sharing my stories, my secrets, and my spark.I asked you to walk with me. And of course — you did. The Innovation Doctor August 17, 2023 ......
