Robin Williams documentary on ABC inspired this episode on creativity. What a sad loss he is a great talent & is greatly missed. Why do some people have creativity in spades while others stay in their comfort zone? What does it take to get someone inspired to develop their skills & talents? On this episode we will look into that & how I have over the years stepped outside of my comfort zone & developed my creativity.
The definition of creativity is having or showing an ability to make new things or think of new ideas, involving the process by which new ideas, stories, etc., are created.
Maya Angelou once said “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have. How are you using your creativity today?
What is a comfort zone? The Merriam Webster Dictionary defines the comfort zone: the temperature range within which one is comfortable. The level at which one functions with ease and familiarity. When I was working in a group home for the physically & mentally challenged in South Surrey BC I thought I don’t want to reach retirement without knowing whether or not I could make it in radio. Here is how i stepped outside of my comfort zone ......

I am not saying to come out of your comfort zone that you need to leave your job & go in a different direction. What I am saying is to become aware of what is your passion in life. Then develop a plan that fits you & take small steps before the big ones come.
Back when I was at BCIT I developed a passion & joy for interviewing. Then i thought it would be so cool to have my own interview show. Amazingly I have done 6 interviews here at VOICE POWER & there are more coming. It is true what Maya Angelou said that creativity grows as you use & develop it.
What is something that gives you a lot of joy & passion for life? Why not take some small steps & see how you can develop it. There are lots of resources in the community....The 1st question to ask yourself is what is your interest & passion that makes life amazing? Finding your higher destiny is a great adventure.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
