53. Create With What You Have

What Rules!?: A career podcast for women of color

If someone handed you a brick and asked you to come back in an hour with a product, what would you make of it? How do you innovate with little more than a single block with which to build? How do you put aside all the rules the world gives you about what's possible and just... create?

This week, Alisa, Rosa, and Dr. Merary get deep into the cracks of what it means to be creative and how innovating using only what you already have is an essential part of every great Rulebreaker's toolkit.

"Achievers have an enabling attitude, realism, and a conviction that they themselves were the laboratory of innovation. Their ability to change themselves is central to their success. They have learned to conserve their energy by minimizing the time spent in regret or complaint. Every event is a lesson to them, every person a teacher." — Marilyn Ferguson, author of The Aquarian Conspiracy
