In Episode 3, Dr. Bethany Ranes and Dr. Norah Kennedy join host Jena Mahne to unpack the neuroscience of creativity and the aha moment, including why forcing creative thought is basically the worst thing you can do.

Tune in to learn how to actually set yourself up for creative breakthroughs at work (yes, even if you have a packed calendar and a skeptical boss). No hustle culture required, just science.
