My guest this last week on the Huberman Lab podcast is @davidchoe, one of the world’s most successful painters, graffiti artists and all-around creatives.
We discuss the creative drive, trauma, addiction, cycles of joy and pain and novelty chasing, and David offers some very valuable tools and insights that anyone can benefit from.
I say that because he’s really talking about how to navigate the human experience: to express yourself, but also to build a life that is solid with respect to relationships and relationship to self, and that is grounded in real joy, not chasing vapors.
We also talk a lot about workaholism. And he tells some spectacularly funny stories that will blow your mind.
You can find the podcast on all platforms or by going to hubermanlab.com… it’s a long conversation, but it’s time-stamped so you can navigate quickly to the topics most of interest to you.
Although if you have the time, I recommend listening to it start to finish because he starts off with a creative critique of my studio, my clothing and some wild stories right off the bat. Not a dull moment ever with David!
