In this week’s episode of the Creative Introvert podcast I talk to Danny Gregory, co-founder of Sketchbook Skool and author of nearly a dozen internationally best-selling books on art and creativity. I personally came across Danny from his podcast Shut Your Monkey, in which he interviewed fascinating artists, psychologists, authors, all kinds of folk who gave […]
I’m back to the somewhat New Agey Year of Fun experiences this week, this time with a Sound Bath. OK for those of you unfamiliar with this sound-bathing thing, like I was until very recently, I’m going to read what’s on the website of the place I visited, The Tree of Life, Hove. “Lay back […]
Part of my fascination with the term ‘introvert’ as I define it is how it describes how I understand where we, as introverts, get our energy from. Now I’m far, far from scientific when it comes to these energy matters. And that’s OK: any scientist who’s worth his salt will admit he or she still […]
This is one that might strike some of you as a bit… odd. I mean, your idea of Fun might be very far from planning the logistics of a holiday and actually indulging in the research involved in making the most out of a short break. Truth be told, I was at a bit of […]
In this week’s episode of the Creative Introvert podcast I talk to someone I’ve actually met in REAL LIFE, which is always a treat, a fellow seaside dweller and creative introvert, Rachel Shorer.

I’ll be honest: I was a bit reluctant to record today, partly because I’m simply not in the mood, and partly because I was feeling some guilt around the actual subject of today’s Year of Fun. I think I’ve gotten into the habit, particularly in recent YOF episodes, to pick things i think will be […]

The simple act of paying attention to something will cause you to make connections you never did before, and you’ll improve the those areas – almost miraculously, without […]
I know I know! ANOTHER workshop. With a spiritual ilk. Is this the Year of Fun, or am I just having an existential crisis? Hopefully I justified my reasoning for these group-based activities a bit more last week, but if not: I’ll elaborate. When you work from home, when you revel in your alone time, and […]

Dana helps driven entrepreneurs make more meaningful use of time by offering simple, easy-to-implement productivity hacks. At Branding Outside the Box, Dana draws from her experience helping hundreds authors launch their unique brands. What we […]
Another group activity today, this time: a Yin yoga workshop. Why all the group activities, you might be wondering? After all, isn’t this an INTROVERT’S Year of Fun? It’s true, as an introvert I do value my alone time. Oh boy do I value it. And if I don’t get enough of it, yes, I […]
