This is a piece I’ve wanted to make for awhile now. You might have caught the script which dropped as an article here last week - and it’s all about creative retreat.
Today then we have the full podcast, or video available on the YT if you fancy that too.
This summer has felt busy (for good and bad) - but I stepped out for a week, and took Creative Minds with me. And I guess if there’s a single goal for this one, it’s to inspire some people out here, to take a creative retreat of their own.
I’m going to put a short reading list/watching list, which supported me in the production and storytelling for this one. And yeah, I really hope you enjoy it.
✌️❤️,
Will

Creative Minds is a small operation, that drives large impact. My work here, and the time I spend on it, is supported by the CM Members, and wouldn’t be able to exist without them.
