"Put in the reps" makes sense, but what are reps in creative work? || Unthinkable #148
"Put in the reps!" we hear. Amen, we think.
"Do a lot of reps," they tell us. I mean, yeah... we acknowledge.
"Ship the work. If it doesn't ship, it doesn't count." Reps. I heard you. Reps. I'm with you.
But...
Um...
In creative work, what the heck is a rep?
How do we find ours? And use them? And what do they DO for us, really?
In a new episode of Unthinkable, we hear stories from visual artist Matthew Zaremba, who uses a tiny repeatable practice to have a profound impact on the lives of others (and his own life). Plus, we meet a guide into this whole idea of “reps,” who helps us define how to extract our own reps from our existing creative processes. He’s a Grammy nominated music educator, jazz trumpet player, and CrossFit coach Kevin Mazzarella.
One of my favorite pairs of guests we've ever had on the show.
