🎙️ In this very special episode of Good Morning Marco, we have the pleasure of sitting down with artist and speaker Thomas C. Keller to explore something he calls The NeuroCreative Mind—the powerful link between creativity and neuroplasticity.
After a 35-year creative hiatus, Thomas became a professional artist at 45. Now, he shares how tapping into your creativity can help your brain adapt, grow, and stay sharp—especially as we age.
🧠💡 From memory palaces and imagination exercises to the power of failing forward, this episode is a thought-provoking ride through creativity, brain health, and the idea that everyone—not just artists—is wired to create.
🎨 Topics include:
• What neuroplasticity really is—and how creativity fuels it
• Why disrupting your habits can lead to mental breakthroughs
• Thomas’s memory tricks and his take on writer’s block
• The emotional depth behind real human creativity vs AI
• Music and storytelling as tools for reconnecting identity
• Broadening what counts as creativity in everyday life
• A preview of his free workshop at Marco Island Center for the Arts on July 10
We also find out Thomas’s favorite foods, his dream superpower, and what inspires his work as an artist—and as a human.
