What if creativity isn't something we spend, but something that regenerates vitality the more we use it? 

According to creativity researcher James Kaufman — co-editor of the Cambridge Handbook of Creativity — creativity and mental health are more closely linked than most people realize. 

In this conversation, Kaufman unpacks the Four C model of creativity (mini-c, little-c, Pro-C, and Big-C), showing why creativity isn't reserved for geniuses but lives in everyday moments of insight and expertise.
