The Christmas Replay: The Transformative Power of Play with Tim J. Myers
This week's podcast
For this year’s Christmas replay, I’m bringing back not just one of my favorite interviews of the year, but one of my favorites of all time. It’s such a deep, fascinating look at what makes us human, what makes creativity tick (and what we mistake for what makes it tick), and why it’s important, and every time I revisit it, I get something new out of it. I know you will, too.
On the podcast this week, writer, teacher, artist, and songwriter Tim J. Myers joins me to talk about what he calls the “sacred mystery” of creativity, and in particular, the importance of play.
If you’ve been listening for a while, you know that I’m a big fan of play, and I’m also particularly fascinated by the spiritual side of creativity. It probably also won’t surprise you that the chance to dig deep into both topics means this conversation is longer than most. We looked at a lot of good stuff, from the way our relationship to creativity changes as adults to how awe and wonder fuel us, and everything in between.
