What if creativity isn’t about talent and more about permission? Permission to notice, to imagine, to follow a thread without knowing where it leads.
In this episode, I’m joined by Andy Mort, songwriter, creativity coach and founder of The Haven, an online community for highly sensitive people. Together we explore the relationship between sensitivity, creativity and confidence, and what becomes possible when ideas are allowed to unfold in community rather than in isolation.
Andy shares the story behind his collaborative ‘zine’ process inside The Haven, and how playful prompts can open up surprising depth, connection and self-trust.
What we talk about in this episode:
- Andy’s journey with high sensitivity and what helped him move from resistance to integration
- The link between sensitivity and creativity, including the role of imagination and nuance
- How the zine process inside The Haven builds confidence through invitation rather than pressure
- Why low stakes creative experimentation can soften self-doubt
- Sensitivity as a collective voice, not just an individual trait
