They Created Happily Ever After
They Created Happily Ever After is a tour in Amsterdam with Peter de Kuster, to define your creative career priorities, discuss hurdles in the stories you tell about yourself and your creative business and think through practical next steps to transform your creative life and business.
It is about capturing those moments that make life worth living. Founder of The Hero’ s Journey Peter de Kuster reveals what leads to these moments—be it the excitement of the artist at the easel or the designer in the lab—so that this knowledge can be used to enrich people’s lives.
Drawing on 700 history of creativity, tens of stories of creative professionals of past and present in Amsterdam like Rembrandt, van Gogh, Remco Koolhaas, Marcel Wanders, Paul Verhoeven as well as his thirty years of research on the subject, Peter uses his famous The Hero’s Journey theory to explore the creative process. He discusses such ideas as why creative individuals are often seen as selfish and arrogant, and why the “tortured genius” is largely a myth. Most important, he explains why creativity needs to be cultivated and is necessary for the future of our country, if not the world.
Join us for a truly transformational vacation for the mind.
