From the moment someone tells us to colour inside the lines, daring is essential to remain truly creative. In a hyper-speed, hyper-convenient world, daring is a daily task from the moment our feet hit the floor. So, who better to draft in to tell us about it than Daring Forever author Radim Malinic.

For previous episodes with Radim, see episodes 119 and 222 of The Creative Condition podcast.
