Series 3 Episode 9 - Frankie Tortora

I ask my guests “what does the word creativity mean to you?”. We talk about creative expression and creative thinking, and how those show up in business.In this episode I talk to Frankie Tortora, who is a graphic designer and the founder of Doing It For The Kids, a membership community for freelancers who are also parents.We talked about creativity as problem solving, having loads of ideas and the power of community. Also mentioned are (in no particular order) gardening, music, Lego and the creative brain power involved in cooking.About meI’m Nina Lenton, and I’m an “untangler” and coach, working with founders and freelancers who have a lot of ideas but aren’t making progress on the ones that matter to them.For more about me and my services and to sign up to my email newsletter, visit my website: http://ninalenton.co.uk/If you enjoy my podcast and my posts, please consider buying me a ‘virtual cuppa’ to say thank you, minimum donation £3 - you can do that here: https://payhip.com/b/ip9ywAbout my guestTo read more about Frankie and the Doing It For The Kids community, go to https://www.doingitforthekids.net/ where you will find a link to Frankie’s graphic design website and to the DIFTK podcast.Other useful informationDuring the episode we also mention Being Freelance, which is a membership group for freelancers run by Steve Folland.
