Back in November, I produced a house concert to benefit the Jazz Camp West scholarship fund, and as part of the concert, I tried out a 30-minute section that I’ve been developing into a keynote about my Creative Sandbox Manifesto — my foundational concepts for living a full-color creative life (which I talk more about in episode 005).
I thought it would be fun to share it on the podcast, so listen for a music-infused explanation of my ten Creative Sandbox Manifesto precepts, the origin story of my Creative Sandbox metaphor, and lots of imperfect ukulele playing.
Enjoy!
