Patricia Ryan Madson, writer, speaker, Professor Emerita from Stanford University, and founder of the Stanford Improvisors joins me on this episode.
Patricia is the author of Improv Wisdom, a book that shows how to apply the maxims of improvisational theater to real-life challenges—whether it’s dealing with a demanding boss, a tired child, or one of life’s never-ending surprises. Author Steven Pressfield said, "There are very few books on creativity that I would take with me to a desert island. One for sure is Patricia Ryan Madson's Improv Wisdom."
Topics we cover include testing resilience and flexibility, lessons learned from a Zen monastery, common misconceptions of improv, a discussion of key maxims from Improv Wisdom, and more.
