You can think of the Illuminary as an inner creative hideout that is made up of various rooms designed to support your creative thinking process. The Studio is a space for divergent thinking, brainstorming, improvising, and experimenting. In our episode, we\u2019ll explore why play matters, no matter what age you are, and how play facilitates your creative flow and momentum. What kind of environment would work best for you in your internal Studio? What colors, tools, and supplies invite you into a playful state of mind? Your Studio is a place to experiment, even when you have no idea whether a possibility will lead anywhere productive. In this space, making a mess is not only expected, it\u2019s celebrated. Don\u2019t miss out on next week\u2019s follow-up episode! In this season, we\u2019re alternating between an episode like this one, that provides a tour of one of the Illuminary\u2019s rooms, followed by an episode like next week\u2019s, in which we\u2019ll play through a hands-on activity together to get a feel for what actually being in that room might feel like. I encourage you to set some time aside next week to join me in the Studio and stretch your playful thinking skills.
