"The truth of the matter is that it's called different things, but everyone has something that they're really good at. And when you're in your full expression of creativity, you're actually at a place where you're self-actualized. The challenge is really understanding—well, it's not a challenge necessarily—but the understanding is: what is that for you? And creativity can look a lot of different ways." – Tracy
