Sparks from SPARKfest (Part 1)

The Spark File with Susan Blackwell and Laura Camien

In this week’s episode, you’ll get an extra special glimpse into SPARKfest 2024, our Spark File community retreat, held last fall at the beautiful Saunders Farm in Ottawa, Canada. This is what we mean when we say that The Spark File is a warm and wonderful clan of creatives! Listen in, and you’ll feel the live-in-front-of-a-crackling-fire ambiance straight from the Saunders Farm cider house!

Our SPARKfest attendees met the challenge of finding a spark to share inspired by something on the farm. From this fearless crew of multi-hyphenates, you’ll hear about:

• what birds can teach us about empty-nesting
• how nature’s patterns reveal the intersection between science and art
• the lessons mushrooms teach about collaboration and competitive advantage
• how pumpkins represent finding the right container for your work
• And, all the things you can catch with open arms.

We’ll share more SPARKfest goodness later in the season. For now get yourself by a warm fire or hook onto to your nearest zipline and join us for this first round of piping hot SPARKfest sparks! Happy listening!
