About This Podcast
Creative Journeys is your go-to podcast for all things creativity. Hosted by David Petroski and Melanie Uribe, faculty at Southern Connecticut State University, this podcast is about creativity...what it is in its many forms and how we can become more creative in our everyday lives. We explore the essence of creativity through engaging interviews and thought-provoking discussions. We feature guests who share their unique experiences, challenges, and insights, offering valuable advice and inspiration. Sometimes we'll look into the ways we're creative that aren't so obvious. We don't have all the answers, but we're hoping that our conversations will help unlock all sorts of questions about what it means to be creative. Whether you're an artist, educator, scientist, entrepreneur, or simply a curious mind, our goal is to ignite your creative spark and help you discover new ways to bring your ideas to life. We invite you to embark on this creative journey together!
Creative Journeys is a podcast produced at Southern Connecticut State University by faculty, students, and staff who are interested in exploring our creative potential.
