Welcome to 'Creativity is...', the podcast by 64 Million Artists that celebrates our unique creativity.

The dictionary definition of creativity is… “the ability to go beyond traditional ideas, rules, and patterns and create new ones”.So, regardless of what you’ve thought before, you don't have to be a professional painter, illustrator, singer or musician; all it takes to be creative is to have a mind that can think new thoughts.

Each episode explores how our guests' life experiences have shaped their imagination, connections and self-expression. This is an open invitation to everyone. This is a reminder that if you have a mind to dream, you possess the power to be creative.

Creativity means different things to all of us, and it can help us understand our feelings, gain perspective and manage stress, or give us five minutes to reconnect with ourselves.

Sign up for our weekly newsletter by visiting 64millionartists.com to get free creative prompts and inspiration in your inbox.

Because creativity is...yours to explore.
