We tend to think of logic and intuition as opposites. One belongs to the head, the other to the heart.
Artist Esther Loopstra and mathematician Allison Henrich, Phd, explore the power of what happens when we bring the two together, especially when we're navigating change, creating something new, or stepping into a version of ourselves we can't fully see yet.
In their new book, Think Like an Artist, Create Like a Mathematician: Harness Logic and Intuition to Find Your Flow and Step Into Who You're Becoming, Esther and Allison explore how to move through change by bringing together logic and intuition, and why neither strategy alone will get you where you want to go. Drawing on personal stories, scientific research, and spiritual wisdom, they show us how to clarify where we want to go while staying open to what unfolds.
We also discuss the dance between trust and control, manifestation and co-creation, and how the initial spark of an idea can grow into something we're willing to devote ourselves to.
In this episode:
- Why creativity requires both logic and intuition
- The Space of Becoming and navigating the unknown
- Learning to listen to your intuition while still taking action
- The role of trust, manifestation, and co-creation
- The shift from play into discipline and devotion
- How our own growth and creative work contribute to something larger than ourselves
