Sustaining Creativity for Life and Work | Mari Reisberg, LPC

What if creativity isn’t a talent reserved for a select few—but something every one of us is meant to experience?In this episode, I’m joined by Mari Reisberg, LPC—therapist, performer, creativity cultivator, and host of the Sustaining Creativity Podcast—to explore how creativity can transform the way we live, work, and navigate life’s biggest transitions.Mari brings a unique blend of experience, holding a BFA in Acting from the University of Hartford’s Hartt School and an MA in Somatic Counseling Psychology with a specialization in Dance/Movement Therapy from Naropa University.Today, she divides her time between her therapy practice, Courage to Create Counseling, where she supports clients through life’s transitions, and Sustaining Creativity, where she helps performers and non-performers alike spark, grow, sustain, share, and transform creativity in their everyday lives.Her message is simple—and powerful:We’re all creative.
