If you've ever been told "go get a real job," you’ll be familiar with how creatives are often devalued in the workforce and society at large. But it is still possible to be creative, have some fun, and have a career, and our guest this week, David Mould, is living proof of that.
David has been living in Thailand for the last 20 years and his work has seen him work in many countries around the world. His superpower is taking ideas from one industry and using them in another, while building allies and collaborators along the way. He also finds the joy, novelty, and inspiration in the creative tension of friction - from the design of products and services to the world around us at large.
In this thoughtful conversation, David shares his thoughts on creativity, navigating the corporate world as a creative, how generative AI will shape the future, and how to be a specialist as a generalist.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
