Distraction, presence, time, patience, reality vs the online space - this piece encapsulates a lot of the themes that are so close to Creative Minds. And yeah, I hope you love it (like I loved making it). This piece was also the first main feature to include three snippets from the CM Conversations - powered by artists and creatives from the newsletter community. I’m linking all their conversations and direct work below - so do go and enjoy those too if one of them speaks to you. Love to all those in here, peace and good luck in your own projects. ✌️❤️, Will Ben Reeves https://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/p/deep-dive-on-creative-process-with [https://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/p/deep-dive-on-creative-process-with] Publications by Ben Reeveshttps://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Ben-Reeves/241394884 [https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Ben-Reeves/241394884] OhPandahhttps://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/p/ohpandah-sobriety-street-art-leaving [https://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/p/ohpandah-sobriety-street-art-leaving] OhPandah’s YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@ohpandah [https://www.youtube.com/@ohpandah] GOGOhttps://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/p/if-you-stay-present-and-connected [https://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/p/if-you-stay-present-and-connected] GOGO’S radio showhttps://www.dublab.com/shows/the-wavelength [https://www.dublab.com/shows/the-wavelength] Get full access to The Creative Minds Newsletter at insidecreativeminds.substack.com/subscribe [https://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]

OhPandah - Sobriety, Street Art, Leaving Instagram, & Self-Permissioned Creative Practice

First things first - go and drop OhPandah a YT follow, you won’t regret it - https://www.youtube.com/@ohpandah/videos This was another conversation that just over-delivered massively for me. It feels like CM Conversations are bringing so much nourishment and goodness into my orbit, and I just couldn’t be happier with how the series is unfolding. I hope you enjoy this one, and if you’re here, I think you will do. ✌️❤️ Will Get full access to The Creative Minds Newsletter at insidecreativeminds.substack.com/subscribe [https://insidecreativeminds.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4]
