#94. TED Talkin’: Eat, Pray, Love & PRESENT - a podcast by Mikey Mioduski
from 2023-11-09T18:41:14
Elizabeth Gilbert, author of viral memoir Eat, Pray, Love acknowledges in her 2009 TED Talk that her best work might very well be behind her. As an artist, however, she’s stuck with the challenge of “topping” her last work.
Why are artists and creative people burdened with these crazy-making tropes? In ancient Greece and Rome, “genius” referred to the divine entity that visited artists—not the artist themselves.
Gilbert challenges us to reframe the narrative around creativity—putting less of the burden on the individual and moreso on the energetic creative spirit that exists in all of us.
This is an episode for: Speakers working on a new presentation, Eat, Pray, Love fans, artists and anyone working through a creative block.
