The Creative Solutions Podcast

Izolda Trakhtenberg

How can we use creativity to come up with the critical solutions we need in the world? Whether you’re trying to start your first novel, draw a picture, or solve the climate crisis, you need to approach the problem creatively. You have to think outside the norm, come up with ideas, and then act on them to solve the big problems we’re facing. Are you depressed, burned-out, or just going through the motions? We’ve got the solution for you, and it’s a creative one. Hear Interviews with Grammy and Tony winners and nominees, bestselling authors, actors, and creative leaders on how they stay motivated, inspired, and productive. Together, we explore their internal, uncharted waters about what inspires them to grow, achieve, and succeed. Get their up to the minute insights as we tease out answers to questions they’ve never pondered before. Remember, you can use creativity and mindfulness to build the life and career you’ll love. You’ll also learn how to supercharge your own creative drive, mindfulness, and communication skills. Guests have included bestselling authors, artists, marketing and pr pros, leadership experts, tech CEOs, technology futurists, professional speakers, communication coaches, public speakers, award-winning Broadway producers, musicians, lyricists, standup comedians, actors, performers, singers, writers, conservationists, non-profit executive directors, and many others.
