In this episode, I reflect on the kinds of creativity that don’t come from tutorials, frameworks, or feedback loops. The ones you feel in your hands. The ideas you can’t explain—not even to yourself.
From a memory of my cousin’s advice about “the concept no one can replace,” to Zhuangzi’s wheelwright who can’t pass on his craft in words, I explore the strange, silent nature of what it means to know something… without being able to teach it.
I also talk about bees, mint leaves, and the part of the process we rarely notice.
💬 Listen if you’ve ever wondered:
Can creativity really be taught?
What makes an idea “yours”?
Why do some things feel so obvious when you feel them—but impossible to explain?
If you prefer to read, you can find it here:
Did you just make that up?
Start here if you’d like to ease in through sound—before the words begin.
