Dual Nature Creatives

As we wrap up Season 1 of Starling, we look at how our personality and psychological make up influence our creativity. There are many myths around artists and creative people being tourtured souls or egotistical weirdos, but...there is  research that says successful creatives are actually something "different". As we explore 10 traits laid out by Hungarian American psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, we connect it to other things we have discussed this season.
