Creativity Conversations explore the nature of our infinite creative potential. The definition of creativity goes far beyond just being artistic. Which means that regardless of where we find ourselves in business or in our personal lives, creativity involves finding new ways to solve problems, find solutions, come up with new ideas and be in "flow." This creative expression appears differently for an artist, a CEO, an entrepreneur, but it's essence is fundamentally the same.
Creativity is a way of living with openness, curiosity, generosity and a sense of adventure. On these calls, we redefine and recognize the variety of forms of expression of the creative spirit through conversations with a diverse group of individuals.
In this episode of Creativity Conversations, Nina Lockwood talks with Bonny Boice about an unexpected journey from brain surgery to watercolor painting—and how creativity became part of discovering a new way of living.
After a career in the corporate world and executive coaching, Bonny faced a life-changing experience when she underwent surgery for a non-cancerous brain tumor. As she navigated physical recovery and the emotional challenge of adjusting to a different life, a watercolor class with her daughter opened a door she hadn't anticipated.
Together, Nina and Bonny discuss:
How brain surgery changed Bonny's relationship with herself and her identity
Why a watercolor class became the beginning of a daily creative practice
The freedom of creating without needing everything to be perfect
How painting helped Bonny become more present and attentive to the world around her
The shift from seeking external validation to finding enjoyment in the experience itself
What creativity has taught her about resilience, gratitude, and new beginnings
Bonny's story is a reminder that creativity doesn't always begin with artistic ambition. Sometimes it enters our lives unexpectedly, helping us discover possibilities we never imagined.
