• Why I Started The Creativity Question (And Who It’s For) - Fabiana Guglielmi 01.02.2026 2min

  The Creativity Question is a podcast I created for curious humans who feel a pull toward creativity, whether you’re just starting or already deep in the game. Each episode I sit down with bold thinkers, artists, founders, educators, and makers who open up about how they learn, play, and build things that didn’t exist before. Together we unpack one big question: what does creativity mean in real life—at work, in side projects, and in the messy in‑between moments.My guests are not just “successful”; they’re generous, vulnerable, and wildly inspiring, sharing the stories, experiments, and failures behind their ideas so you can steal tools and courage for your own path. If you’re hungry to think differently, start creating more, and see your life as a work in progress rather than a fixed script, this podcast is for you.
