    Useful and Motivating
    I listen to these podcasts before I go to competition, as they are extremely calming or motivating. As someone who has read a ton on mindfulness, all of these podcasts are great complements to books and articles.

    Inspiring Spiritual Perspectives
    Listening to the Creative Process helps individuals with the tools for mindfulness and other techniques. This gives listeners the opportunity to learn and to observe their thoughts and emotions without becoming entangled in them, leading to a greater sense of calm and emotional stability, beautiful podcast!

    Incredible storytelling
    The storytelling in these episodes are visceral and sensory, making you feel as if you are there. The Creative Process consistently introduces interesting guests, each of whom have unique experiences and stories to tell. The podcast manages to be specific, with the hosts asking the guests compelling questions, but it also covers broadly accessible and important themes regarding climate change.

    Diversity of Spiritual Life
    This branch of the Creative Process has an interesting blend of environmental scientists and artists, which I think is a lovely way to look at spirituality as it encompasses all aspects of life, not just the interior but the exterior as well. My only criticism is it would be nice to see some more interviews with religious or spiritual leaders, just to see how community and institution factors in our spiritual lives. Especially since religious leaders need a lot of creativity in their jobs!

    Diverse Perspectives, Creative Minds
    A broad view of spirituality within the context of the creative mind. At large, The Creative Process podcast is unusual in its scope - interviews from a diverse set of the top creative minds in arts, technology, media, environmentalism, philosophy, and spirituality among other fields of interest. Yet, what the Creative Process does really well is tie together these creative minds within a global project to educate, inform and protect the world for future generations. The production quality and music create an immersive experience, with consistent output of episodes. Each episode has a HIGHLIGHTS mini-summary if you’re on a rush and just want to digest the main points. I highly recommend the Creative Process to anyone that wants to learn from some of the greatest minds in the world.

    Convivial and moving!
    This is such a wonderful series! I love how diverse and rich these conversations are, and the breadth of insight and wisdom which they offer. The Creative Process doesn’t limit its scope to the canon of philosophers or spiritual leaders but instead opens the discussion up to so many brilliant minds, whether they’re bestselling poets or professors of ecology. Such an enjoyable listen and a wonderful addition to my routine!

    Inspiring
    I love how these interviews not only inspire me, but motivate me to do the things I love as well with less fear! For instance, Alain Robert’s interview made how I see trusting myself and decision making skills in a totally different light.

  • Andrew blue man
    An Appreciated Nuance
    The podcast takes on both fresh and veteran interviews with thought provoking discussion. The podcast market is saturated with a over abundance of a similar “type” of interview or meaningless discussion. This is where The Creative Process distinguishes itself regarding arts, culture, the environment, politics, and science.
  • Lyn G. G.
    Amazing and important work!
    So inspiring, I learn so much every time I listen! I highly recommend this podcast to everyone. You are doing great work here for the world and I think everyone deserves to know about it. The same goes for all of your podcasts!
  • Hiya126
    thought provoking
    I really enjoyed the Peter Singer epi -- covered a range of topics surrounding bioethics and the relationship between animals and humans. Conversation made me question how it could be applied to my own life.
  • artsactivist
