About this episode

Are you just as interested in the people behind the work as the work itself? The Creative Boom Podcast takes a unique approach—it's not just about the finished project; it's about what makes creatives tick.

Join host Katy Cowan for warm, candid conversations with fascinating guests, from well-known names like Paula Scher, Gail Anderson and Stefan Sagmeister to lesser-known but equally inspiring creatives making waves in their own right.

In each Monday episode, we dive into personal breakthroughs, creative frustrations, and the human side of creativity. And now, with The Spark, a new Thursday bonus episode, you'll get a quick pick-me-up with creative news, practical tips, and listener stories to keep you inspired through the week.

So whether you're after deep conversations or a burst of inspiration, The Creative Boom Podcast has you covered. Subscribe now and join the conversation.
