Go Be Creative with Heather Eck, Holly Homer & Brenda Knight

On this week’s Goalchat, Debra Eckerling talks about how to "go be creative" with intuitive artist Heather Eck (who has synesthesia – the ability to see color), content creator Holly Homer (founder of Pagewheel and Kids Activities Blog), and author/publisher Brenda Knight (Books that Save Lives aka BTSL).

All three are featured in "52 Secrets for Goal-Setting and Goal-Getting" – a BTSL book, championed by Brenda. They are also champions of creativity, who constantly juggle multiple endeavors.

Heather, Holly, and Brenda share their 52 Secrets secrets, their backstories, and the projects they are currently very excited about. They also discuss the impact of AI – hint, it will not replace people, as well as their favorite strategies for creating, cultivating, and enjoying the world around them.

– Holly: Going outside, also into the storytelling in Kdramas
– Brenda: The shower – it’s the phonebooth to the higher power; also walking and enjoying nature/gardens – they are a sea of color

How to Get Unstuck
