In this episode of Real Things Living, Brigitte Cutshall sits down with Pia Leichter—author of "Welcome to the Creative Club" and founder of Kollektiv Studio—to explore how creativity shows up in our daily lives.
Pia shares her journey of breaking through limiting beliefs, writing her book, and embracing collaboration as a powerful form of expression. Together, they discuss why creativity isn’t about perfection—it’s about curiosity, fun, and leaning into what makes us authentically human.
3 Takeaways:
(1) Creativity is for everyone. It’s not limited to artists—curiosity and problem-solving are forms of creativity we practice every day.
(2) Perfection blocks connection. Letting go of the need to “be the best” opens space for play, growth, and authentic expression.
(3) Collaboration multiplies creativity. Working with others—whether in music, writing, or business—sparks unexpected ideas and meaningful impact.
