Creativity and Magic for Everyone with Jo Dorrington-Neville

Creativity and Magic for Everyone with Jo Dorrington-Neville

Author: Charlotte Ashley-Roberts February 16, 2026 Duration: 45:33

In this episode of Your Time To Grow, Charlie is joined by Jo Dorrington-Neville, creative entrepreneur, performer, and maker, for an inspiring conversation about creativity, magic, and how we can all reconnect with our personal spark.

Jo shares how creativity isn’t just for artists; it’s in everyday choices, from doodling to fashion, and how embracing it can nurture mental health, identity, and joy. Together, Charlie and Jo explore:

✨ How mental blocks and misconceptions often stop us from expressing ourselves creatively, and why small, low-pressure practices can reignite the spark.
✨ The balance between extroverted creative expression (like performing or presenting) and quiet, introspective creativity (like drawing or journaling).
✨ How engaging creatively can become a daily practice that supports self-connection, presence, and wellbeing.
✨ Ways to rediscover magic in life through experimentation, play, and curiosity, without pressure or expectation.
✨ How community and shared creative experiences can enhance joy while maintaining personal boundaries and energy.

Jo also shares practical tips for anyone looking to bring more creativity into their life, highlighting that magic and creative expression are accessible to all, and that even small acts can inspire growth and a sense of wonder.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your creative side or wanted to bring more play, joy, and personal magic into your everyday life, this episode is full of encouragement, insight, and practical ways to get started.
