ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Welcome to The Creative Switch, the podcast for people who have always followed the safe and sensible path in their careers yet find themselves yearning for something more. If you're someone who feels unfulfilled due to unexpressed creativity, then you've come to the right place.
Ready to unleash your creative potential and join me on this creative adventure? The show is dedicated to exploring how to ignite your creative spark and allow it to flourish in every aspect of your life - whether it's in your career, your hobbies or your daily routine.
I’m Nikki Vallance, your host and a switcher myself. I switched on my creativity after a successful corporate career to become a published novelist and I'm here to inspire you to do the same.
You’ll learn:
• How to overcome the fear of switching on your creativity
• How to find new ways to satisfy your creative needs
• How to share your creations with others and make an impact
• And much more!
You’ll hear:
from amazing guests, some, who are switchers themselves - those who have taken the leap and either switched on their creativity, or have now switched to a life where creativity is in everything they do. Through their inspiring stories, our conversations delve into the mindset, habits, and practices that have allowed them to unlock their creative potential and lead fulfilling lives.
Others are therapists, educators, mentors and experts in the creative space who will provide insight, support and inspiration to fuel your creative fire.
The episodes explore the how, what, why, and who of creativity through engaging and relaxed conversations, which get to the core of what it means to be creative.
So if you’re ready to switch on your creativity and live a more fulfilling life, join me on The Creative Switch.
