Welcome to Episode 3, Season 2 of the Woman Uncaged podcast! In this episode, Linda speaks with artist and coach Karen Light about Why Creativity Matters (beloved co-host Laura was on vacay while this episode was recorded!).

"Relaxation is the best friend of creativity." - Karen Light

Karen and Linda dive into:

- Creativity and how it often overlaps with being multi passionate

- How Karen defines creativity (hint: it includes, but goes beyond, art)

- Why Karen believes every creative act is a revolutionary act

- What do we receive as individuals and collectively from unleashing our creativity

- How we are enlarged through the PROCESS of creating

- The relationship between creativity and agency, and WHY creativity is crucial as we begin to move out of our Good Girl energy

- Why visuals can help us to dismantle our inner cages

- What if we came into the world naturally wanting to be creative and make art, but it is blocked over time

- Why creativity requires a sense of safety and how do we cultivate that for ourselves and others

- How creativity allows us to meet one another as human beings

- Why creativity isn't always "on" and how to recognize that and step back into a more creative space
