The Creative You And The Business You

The struggle to blend our creative brain and our business brain is real. We’re taught from an early age to choose between the two or in most cases, it’s been determined for us. We're either creative or book smart. We can’t be both. We’re not even encouraged to try.  Well, that stinks and it’s  simply not true. We can be both! In fact, we are both! We can love to bake as well as cook.  We can love heavy metal and a country ballad.  We can love to paint and create spreadsheets. We can be creative and use our business brain. A business suit really does come off at night!  It’s about connecting them. Giving each equal billing and time on their own to explore and grow roots!  Once the roots are strong, the blending is easy. One won’t want to function without the other. It’s a marriage of the most intimate kind.
