The Power of Creativity
Jul 15, 2023

Today I will share the power of creativity AKA my Podcast journey. I feel creativity is  a physical and emotional need  to create something that aligns with our value, vision and aesthetic. So far, I have gone through three major phases of my creative trajectory.   I started my podcast ‘ life designer’ at the early stage of pandemic due to my strong desire for human connection . Over the last two and half years,  my relentless approach on a globe scale led to 26 episodes with 22 talents across the world.  I am, forever grateful and thankful for each guest featuring on my podcast. 

A year later of running my podcast, I  began to contemplate making a website for my podcast. The choice of making a website also fulfills  my growing creative needs in pursing aesthetic and style.  During this period,  I experienced transition from creating content to make my content look pretty ( of course content is always key, but looking pretty becomes my mantra lol). My creativity reached a small  peak last year when doing my home project.  This home project brough me back to the interior design and I am sitting in an interior decoration class now!

To this point,  creativity power already works as a ripple effect in all areas of  my life.   It direct me to explore more profound culture experience associated with experiential  hotels, museums , galleries. It grounds me to execute even small  ideal across my mind with more conviction. It disciplines my  practice through translating into physical strength to keep me on the top of every hustling  day.  It reframes my mindset through  translating into inner strength to enable me to reimage my highest level of  truth.  Entering 2023, I am going through another transition that seems to manifest in a form of creativity block at first.  I may have that inherited empathy for a heart-to- heart conversation,  but I haven’t  put my greatest length to equip myself  for this podcast hosting role . Spending  hours and hours working on a single word’s pronunciation  embodies quite significant meaning for me , skill wise and personality wise . This groundedness-building  also got me rise above my creativity block.  I  tune in this downtime to do all preparation work . I become center. I consider it as a  milestone I achieved  for my creativity dimension and  my personal growth.

During  this  transition I also sense subtle shift where I consciously re-examine my relationship with material objects and physical world around. Now I can articulate what I experience is the sense of awe and its power.  When I was in polar museum,  time and space became dignified . Sublime and blessing feeling for brief moment soothed my body and soul.  That is the power of awe which I personally feel worthy of chasing. 
 When creativity becomes the second nature,  It will  blossom and flourish  in a variety of form. Eventually, I completed this transformation,  which not only  connected  me to another creative outlet of writing  but also got me  fall in that creativity flow again : I launched my solo podcast Jing lens  this May ,and you are hearing it now.   

Years ago, I was at this  point of rebuilding my life from the scratch. At this moment I feel it’s like a full-circle for me where my body and mind function at record good. I also got extra capacity of  forwarding my energy back to the world. This creative journey sustains me on the right track, and I believe it will eventually take me to  a thriving place.  If anyone feel uplifted and inspired by this episode , I feel my mission completed.
