Creativity through the lens of the best selling author of the Role of Love and a Love Language Linguist

"Creativity; you're just trying to solve a problem." 

Paul Zolman is the international bestselling author of the Role of Love, but the true author of love is God. In His wisdom, He placed us in a variety of circumstances that require us to find our way back to His pure love. So, what qualifies me to speak about love? My childhood experience of the opposite of love. From that austere beginning, and the distaste it formed inside me, I searched for and eventually created a method that transformed my life from anger to loving everyone. Growing up in a family of abuse, physical touch became my preferred love style, only because of the regularity. I could almost count on it. It was consistent. I came to think that was the way to express love. But deep inside, I knew that was a twisted belief. I wanted a better life for myself, which is why I created a paradigm shift that works. In this book, you?ll find what helped me move from a childhood boot camp of abuse to being a person who loves everyone and can find good about anyone in any circumstance. This is truly the role of love. I hope you join me.

Creativity through the lens of Sally Gimon helping people save taxes with the Spend Thrift Trust

"I'm Tenacious" 

Sally was motivated to become a real estate investor when her mom became sick in
October 2018.  Sally was 53 and needed to make a change in her life quickly.  She has
been an insurance agent for 20 years and has used her experience to make positive
changes.  Now she shares her information weekly in her real estate group and Win, Win
Women TV.
In July 2020 she bought a Bank Owned Property for $20,000 that would go to auction for $50,000 when Covid restrictions lifted.  She knew her Capital Gains would be $7,140 and researched how the rich paid so little in taxes.  This led her to find the Business and
Beneficial Spendthrift Trusts.
Currently Capital Gains are 23.8% on any profit.  There is passed legislation to raise this to 40% for some tax levels.  The IRS is hiring 87,000 new agents.  The Spendthrift Trust defers Capital Gains into infinity and beyond, keeps people judgment proof, and their
information private.

Creativity through the lens of a coach and author

"We breathe creativity, that's all life is about. We are in a constant state of creation."

Success isn't always what it seems from the outside. I speak from experience; I found success at a very young age. I was living in one of the most beautiful places on earth and from the outside everything looks perfect, but something was always missing. Surrounded by material success, with everything in place by normal standards, I found myself dissatisfied and nothing seemed to fill the emptiness inside.

No matter how much money I made or how successful I was I never felt whole. Over the course of time, this feeling got worse, never better, no matter what I did.

I remember, it was almost 30 years ago that I was so miserable I walked out the door to change my life and I never looked back.

Prior to starting on my spiritual transformation path, my life was literally out of control! Dysfunction completely controlled my life and I was making decisions based on who I wasn?t. I was literally walking through life blindfolded!

I'm not blindfolded any longer! I have cracked the code! With nearly 30 years of research, investigation and experimentation I found the answers that allow anyone to live life with passion, purpose and prosperity.

The information that I have discovered it's so powerful that it creates a fool proof blueprint to follow that guarantee success.

Creativity through the lens of a photographer and author

"I'm always looking for interesting things, people or places to photograph. Any picture you can create emotion from is priceless."

In the 1960s Peter Dazeley, known as Dazeley, started his working life as a photographer at a studio in Fleet Street, London. He was educated at Holland Park School, now known as the Socialist?s Eton, which had amazing facilities including studios and darkrooms. Being wildly dyslexic he left school at 15 without any formal qualifications. Dazeley states that ?Dyslexia should be seen as a superpower; it gives
me the ability to see the world differently.? Dazeley?s career has spanned over 60 years, in 1976 he started working out of his own studio in Chelsea, London. He is a meticulous
planner and imaginative problem solver. "Making the ordinary look
extraordinary is Dazeley's gift" says Sarah Ryder Richardson, who
represents Dazeley. Working with 31 Studios, the foremost specialist for Platinum
printing in the UK, Dazeley produced his first book: 21 st Century
Platinum (2003), which he likened to taking photography back to its
origins. As a born and bred Londoner, he has also fulfilled his passion to
record the history of London, in four highly successful books: Unseen
London (2014), London Uncovered (2016), London Theatres (2017)
and London Explored (2021). In 2013 Dazeley was honoured to be awarded a Fellowship from The Royal Photographic Society, which is the highest distinction of the

Creativity through the lens of an aircraft mechanic and Capoeira instructor,

"Creativity is about the imagination you have whether it's a problem you're solving or creating something extraordinary."

Oscar Cuadra has trained Capoeira, a Brazilian martial art, for over 20 years throughout Brazil and currently at United Capoeira Association Colorado in Denver. As a teacher, Oscar challenges students to explore their creativity as they exchange movements in jogos (games exchanging attacks and defenses) of Capoeira. Students have the opportunity to read someone else?s energy, create energy shifts within themselves, as well as, play with transferring energy to another person. He challenges his student to hold curiosity about how this exploration parallels how they participate in the world outside of the Capoeira studio.

Creativity through the lens of a mindset coach for leaders

"To be creative, is to be free of limitations."

Mary focused all of her energy into becoming a leader that brought out the best in others for more than 20 years. As she burnout, her superintendent told her that although she was doing the right things, she wasn?t getting the right results; figure it out or go.
With this nudge, Mary finally accepted the fact that she couldn?t compartmentalize the parts of her that hurt from the part of her that she wanted others to see. In order for her to be the leader she wanted to be, she had to stop relying on knowing and doing, and she had to get real with herself about who she was being.
Now, Mary is a mindset coach helping conscious business leaders be happier, healthier, wiser, and connected to unlimited possibilities.

Creativity through the lens of an Artistpreneur coach

Creativity is "seeing something that exists in front of all of us, but thinking up something that doesn't exist."

As Founder & CEO of Artist Collective, Evan Price has worn countless hats in the music industry. At the age of fourteen, he started a booking agency that promoted more than +100 shows, igniting his passion for the business. He then became involved in artist management with several Chicago acts, licensing, booking, digital marketing, and coaching. As a graduate of Columbia College, he used his Bachelor?s Degree in Arts & Entertainment Media Management in Music Business to build his own vision. His mission is to transform artists into what he calls ?artistpreneurs? and finally get them out of the 9-5s they hate and back to the music. By using the ?M.C.S. Method? or ?monetizable creative skillset? Evan and his team can help creatives build a profitable business around the one thing they are the most passionate about. Who says your hobby can?t be your business? Drawing inspiration from the likes of Steve Jobs, Gary Vaynerchuck, and Donald Miller, he discovered the key to a successful brand: an outrageously compelling story. This drove Evan to teach musicians the art of clever storytelling to unlock their success through authentic vulnerability. He has built a very engaged social media following reminding creatives to be self aware, empathetic to their audience, and unwavering in their pursuit of building their music business. His company Artist Collective was given the nod by Billboard magazine as one of the best resources for musicians during the COVID-19 Pandemic and he?s been featured on such programs as The Jam Tv show, Chance the Rapper?s SocialWorks, KissFM, Medium, and more.

Creativity through the lens of a serial entrepreneur and master salesman

Creativity means "to solve problems that aren't the same way that everyone else does it."

I went to Duquesne University in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and double majored in accounting and finance. The majors were chosen because they give intrinsic skills that are needed by all businesses ? everyone needs to know where there money is and how to get more of it. Finance covered a part of how a company gets more money; however the best way is through sales. Knowing that sales are the key to every business I worked a variety commission only sales position throughout my time at Duquesne.  Following graduation I worked for three years as a personal financial advisor. In the first year, I was the office?s ?rookie of the year?, in the second year I was the ?underclassman of the year?, and the third year I left to create my first real estate business in 2011. Since then, my businesses have created revenue from properties in a vast array of methods. Some of the more common ways we create revenue in the real estate sector by preforming land lording services, selling investment grade properties to other investors, and renovation for sale of properties.  I also run two podcasts ? Father and Joe, and Local Football Flavor, I provide an ever growing amount of keynote addresses and presentations, as well as providing business and personal coaching services. Outside of my professional world I am a married man with a newly born son. In 2017, along with Father Boniface Hicks, we created the podcast Father and Joe. The goal of our podcast is to bring individuals closer to God. I also am an avid axe thrower ? in 2019 I finished 192nd in the International Axe Throwing Federation Championship in Toronto.
