In this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, Mel interviews musician Phil Cook about tapping into one's natural-born creativity to live a more purpose-driven life. Phil shares four principles: shedding the weight of expectations, lowering the stakes, bringing yourself to the work, and finding a sanctuary for your creativity. He emphasizes that creativity isn't just for artists; it's a way to connect with your intuition, make decisions, and find aliveness in everyday life. Phil and Mel discuss practical examples of creativity, from making a pizza to wearing fun socks, and stress the importance of self-acceptance and trusting your inner voice. Phil shares personal stories, including how his son with autism has shaped his perspective and how wood carving has become a form of personal expression and connection.
