In this episode of the Common Creative Podcast, Paul and Chris are joined by Nina Sunday, educator, author, speaker, and host of the global podcast Manage Self, Lead Others. Nina shares her creative journey across education, film, television, and leadership, and offers sharp insights into how ideas live or die inside organisations.
The conversation explores psychological safety, constructive conversations, vision boards, and why practices like free writing and doodling matter more than we think. Drawing on decades of experience through her company Brainpower Training, Nina brings a practical, human lens to leadership, curiosity, and real change at work.
This episode is a thoughtful look at how creativity, communication, and self-leadership shape the way we lead and the cultures we create.
