Improv, Acting, and Creative Side Hustles
Manage episode 379501320 series 3519745
In this episode, Jonni and Maria talk about the magic of improv and acting and how creative outlets can enrich your life and work. We share how we both got into them, what we get out of performing, and some horrific audition stories. What have these passons taught us about public speaking, vulnerability, and rejection, and how do we apply it to our everyday lives? How can leaders and business teams benefit from improv training? Why are creative endeavors the best form of self-care, no matter how busy you might be? Creative outlets help you flex your innovation and resilience muscles and Lord knows we needed those these past two years! Plus, the perfect power nap, Valentine’s Day traditions (and pitfalls to avoid) and more tomfoolery.
