S8E163: Episode 163 - Nicoline van Slingelandt: The Gymsical Creative
Description
What if creativity was a muscle you could train just like going to the gym? In this energising episode, writer and creativity advocate Nicoline van Slingelandt shares her fascinating journey from international development to publishing playful, art-inspired books and games for families and lifelong learners.
She introduces her latest project, Gymsical, a creative "gym" designed to help you pause, pay attention, and play your way into deeper self-expression. Nicoline opens up about the mental resistance we all face, how to stay disciplined without killing the joy, and why creativity is less about talent and more about permission.
