SELLEST OSAST
In this episode of Coaching Revealed, hosts Austin Matzelle and Emily Terrani are joined by Dr. Zorana Ivcevic Pringle, researcher at the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and author of The Creativity Choice. Together, they explore creativity as a psychological and emotional process—one that unfolds over time and is deeply shaped by mood, environment, and relationships.
Dr. Pringle shares insights from decades of interdisciplinary creativity research, challenging common myths that creativity is reserved for artists or requires complete freedom. Instead, she reframes creativity as something both original and effective, accessible to everyone, and profoundly influenced by emotional awareness, constraints, and social context.
Throughout the conversation, the hosts and Dr. Pringle examine how thinking and feeling are inseparable in creative work, how different emotional states serve different creative functions, and what coaches and leaders can do to cultivate environments where creativity can reliably emerge.
