The Accidental Creative Is Going Away (After 18 Years!)

In this episode, we bid farewell to "The Accidental Creative" podcast, which has been the home for my insights and teaching over the past 18 years.

The decision to retire the brand was driven by the desire for a name that better encapsulates the show's core message and offerings, as well as a new vision for the podcast's format and content.

"The Accidental Creative" will be transformed into a new show called "Daily Creative," focusing on providing story and teaching-driven content centered around themes relevant to creativity, problem-solving, and effective leadership. The podcast will no longer be ad-supported and will seek to be listener-supported. Additionally, a new Daily Creative app will be introduced, offering subscribers access to bonus materials, insights, courses, and more.

If you've been a fan of "The Accidental Creative," be sure to play the first episode of "Daily Creative" upon its release to ensure proper subscription and visibility. Additionally, access to the back episodes of "The Accidental Creative" will only be available until January 1, 2024.

Finally, the change marks a significant shift for the show after almost two decades, and we are grateful for the listeners who have been part of this journey. We invite you to share your thoughts and feedback as we embark on this new chapter with "Daily Creative."

Key learnings from the episode:

1. The decision to retire "The Accidental Creative" and introduce "Daily Creative" was driven by the need for a brand that more accurately reflects the podcast's core message.

2. "Daily Creative" will feature story and teaching-driven content around timely themes to provide value to the audience.

3. The show will shift from being ad-supported to being listener-supported and will introduce the Daily Creative app, offering subscribers access to additional content and materials.

4. Listeners are encouraged to play the first episode of "Daily Creative" upon release and to access back episodes of "The Accidental Creative" before January 1, 2024.

5. The shift marks a new phase for the podcast, and your feedback and engagement are highly valued as the show continues to evolve.

Snakebite

In this first episode of Daily Creative with Todd Henry, we explore the concept of vision and its role in our work and relationships. We hear from Joshua Gott, a consultant and strategist, and Jonbob Willis, a creative photographer and "mad scientist", who share their experiences of pursuing their passions and visions, despite fear and uncertainty. Through their stories, we discover that discontentment often leads to the birth of a vision, and that having the courage to act in the face of uncertainty and fear can lead to remarkable outcomes. The episode challenges us to consider what we might do if fear had no power over us and failure was an option, encouraging us to embrace brave action and creative courage in our lives and work.

Todd Henry's new book The Brave Habit releases on January 23!

Key Learnings:

1. Discontentment can be the catalyst for developing a vision for the future, as it prompts us to consider what could be better in our lives and work.

2. Acting bravely and pursuing our visions often involves stepping into the unknown, embracing uncertainty, and taking risks.

3. When pursuing a vision, it's important to focus on what we are moving toward, rather than what we are trying to escape.

4. Permission is not needed to pursue our ideas and passion projects. We should not be afraid to try new things and take risks, even if failure is a possibility.

5. Embracing creative courage and acting boldly in the face of fear and uncertainty can lead to unexpected and meaningful outcomes.
