Instead, she reframes creativity as something both original and effective, accessible to everyone, and profoundly influenced by emotional awareness, constraints, and social context.Throughout the conversation, the hosts and Dr. Pringle examine how thinking and feeling are inseparable in creative work, how different emotional states serve different creative functions, and what coaches and leaders can do to cultivate environments where creativity can reliably emerge.Episode LinksYale Center for Emotional Intelligence: YCEIThe Creativity Choice: https://www.zorana-ivcevic-pringle.com/
