I recently heard Elizabeth Gilbert speak on the topic of creativity … and since then I've been thinking A LOT about how creativity supports us in feeling healthier and more alive. The universe is constantly creating (think about the plants, stars, asteroids, really the whole universe is constantly shifting, changing, growing, evolving and being creative) so when WE are being in creative, it's like we are aligning with the natural laws of the universe. It's turning out to be an incredible antidote to depression, grief, illness and anxiety, among other ailments. It was so fun to dive into this topic with artist Devon Walz talk about the rich topic of creativity on this week's episode… In this episode we discussed: How Devon stays focused, motivated and continually inspired in the creative process Her story of moving through depression, undergoing a lot of healing and learning how to do art and business in a way that works for her as a result The role of trust and intuition in the creative process + life in general! Staying committed to personal truth while building a business in our masculine, fast-paced society The role that emotional work + self-care continues to play in art and business The main blocks holding back creatives and visionaries from doing their work Why we need artists + visionaries to be doing their work in the world and the role they're playing for all of us How art aids in shifting the consciousness How Devon faces her fears in the realm of creativity + entrepreneurship Stay in Touch with Devon: Instagram @devonwalzart Website: devonwalz.com Devon Walz is a professional artist, muralist, mentor and dreamer.

Solving for Change MOBIA Technology Innovations Solving for Change welcomes business and technology leaders to share stories of bold business transformation within complex organizations. In an era when technology and markets are changing around businesses, the key to staying competitive is to evolve in response to those changes. MOBIA’s Mike Reeves and Marc LeBlanc investigate business transformation, deconstructing the challenges, ambitions, and market disruptions that drive companies to embark on transformation journeys, and exploring their unique approaches to achieving meaningful outcomes. What sparks leaders to pursue business transformation? How do they overcome the challenges along the way? What are the keys to creating enduring change? Through in-depth conversations with business and technology leaders, Mike and Marc answer these questions and explore how businesses evolve by pulling four key transformation levers: people, process, technology, and culture. 2 Old Ladies Walking Rozee 2 Old Ladies Walking features the journeys, insights, and light conversation between Liz and Rosie, two women of a certain age who live in the Hudson Valley of New York. From pelvic floor challenges and life with young adult children to food, bird calls, fear of “mad lamb” disease, and myriad topics in between, we cover it all while walking on the scenic trails of the northeast, or wherever our travels take us. Join us and have a listen! NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in
