Akimbo: A Podcast from Seth Godin

NOTE

Art Flourishes in Generosity

Creativity and the arts are fundamentally about sharing a personal gift, whether it's an idea or a work of art. Real art emerges when individuals express themselves generously and originally, regardless of its commercial viability. The transformative power of art lies in its ability to impact others, fostering a chain of inspiration and creativity that enhances society and culture.
