  • “[The workshop] left us thinking differently about the power and importance of creativity, and how to bring it back into our lives. SHE is a fantastic speaker and struck a great balance for our audience of science driven data, personal experience and group participation. She left us hungry and curious to explore our own creative brains more.”

The case for your creative genius

As kids, we're all wildly creative.

It’s like breathing. We’re all born knowing how to do it.

But somewhere along the line, we get trained out of it. Creativity starts to feel silly and out of reach.

Imagine if the same thing happened to breathing — and we started saying things like "oh, no, I'm not a breather". Or "I used to breathe, but not anymore".

That wouldn't be a good state of affairs. And it doesn't have to be the state of affairs for our creativity either.

No matter Your age, stage or industry — we can all clear the air and start feeling more creative.

Our creativity workshops are a great place to start. You’ll come away with:

  • simple frameworks for understanding what creativity is, how it works in the brain, and what can get in the way

  • practical tools to bring more creative thinking into your life and work

  • a fun, hands-on, collective experience of lowering the stakes, embracing discomfort and exploring your creativity.

from someone who’s lived it too

Hi, I’m Kate.

I spent years as a lawyer and leader feeling wholly uncreative — until I picked up a paintbrush aged 30.

Not only did I start making art, but reconnecting with my creativity quickly became the best CPD I was doing in my law practice.

Ever since, I've been fascinated by our creative brains and how we can reeducate ourselves back into creativity.

I work with experienced professionals in industries that aren’t traditionally considered ‘creative’ — but who are absolutely doing creative work.
