About this listen

FIND YOUR CREATIVE COURAGE: Transform Your Life Using Everyday Creativity is a six-part course in everyday creativity for everyone. It is designed to revolutionise our thoughts around creativity, and who gets to use it. The common story that ‘Creativity is only for special people with special talents’ is both debilitating, and untrue. In this series, Clare proposes a different theory: each of us holds within us the ability to be uniquely creative. First, we need to learn how to count ourselves into the story, and start considering the possibility that the benefits of cultivating ‘Everyday Creativity’ might actually outweigh the risks. This is a unique concoction of humour, story, scientific research, coaching techniques that Clare created forTame you Inner Critic. She does this with her own narration, guests such as Dr Charlotte Keating and numerous vox pops to create a lively mix of expert insight and listener activities.

Find Your Creative Courage offers a safe and enjoyable place for listeners to begin exploring the question ‘What is Creativity?’ and ‘Is there room in there for me?’ The answer is yes! You just need to fill out a few forms and begin! This series shows you how.

About the Creator-Clare Bowditch

About the Creator and Performer

Clare Bowditch is an Australian musician, author, and broadcaster.
As a musician Clare has recorded five albums and toured with the likes of Leonard Cohen, Cat Power, Snow Patrol and Gotye. She has won an ARIA Award for Best Female Artist, been voted Rolling Stone Woman of the Year (Contribution to Culture), and her work as an actor on hit TV show Offspring was nominated for a Logie.
In October 2019, Bowditch released her first book, Your Own Kind of Girl, a partial memoir from her early life, published in Australian by Allen & Unwin, who acquired the rights after an auction between eight publishers. This won the 2020 Australian Book Industry Awards ‘Best New Australian Author’ award, and was named one of Audible’s ‘Top Twenty Australian Audiobooks.” Later that year, this was followed up by the Audible Original podcast series Tame Your Inner Critic. In her spare time, Bowditch does a lot of public speaking and event-running. She uses humour and the collective terror of 'public-singing' as tools to teach skills around courage and self-leadership.
She lives in Melbourne, Australia, with her husband Marty and their three very tall children.

Lots of fun

Listening to this was like listening to a conversation with your favourite people. It’s fun and thoughtful as well as thought provoking. Easy to listen to & think about while early morning walking with the dog. I used the voice memo on my phone to do some of the activities. Well done!

Fresh and unique

Excellent content and presentation and some laugh-out-loud moments as well. A PDF of the acronyms and key points would have been useful for those who listened driving etc. However, a second note taking listen is on the list. Thank you Claire from a real life Rosanna.

Outstanding!

Loved this - was exactly what I needed to hear as I whip out that dust laiden guitar and get those calluses on my fingers - for my own joy and private creativity. Thank you for reminding me of the joy and delight in this world!

Creative is as creative does

I really enjoyed this newest offering by Clare Bowditch. It makes creativity so accessible and practical in its examples and stories from other creatives. I gobbled this up in a few hours.

The sparkly creative pick me up I needed!

Loved Clare’s previous series with big guy and knew I’d love this too. The perfect mix of heart, facts, self- love & humor I highly recommend to everyone even those that think they aren’t creative 💜💜💜💜💜

Very relatable

This was a wonderful reminder of how being creative is simple. We have just forgotten how due to our lives.

Really love the delivery

It could have been a lecture style delivery like most books, but Clare and Jay made it so fun to listen to with their energetic, occasionally dialogue like delivery.
The content not only encourages me to revisit my hobbies, but also how I see my husband’s with fresh eyes.
