What happens when your childhood refuge disappears, and creativity becomes your way home?

In this reflective Morning Cup of Brand Spark conversation, Patrick Williams joins Gina Dunn to talk about loss, memory, and the moment creativity becomes remembrance.

When artist and educator Patrick Williams was ten, bulldozers destroyed the woods behind his childhood home, his sanctuary of imagination and solitude.

That loss became the start of his lifelong creative journey.

In this Morning Cup of Brand Spark conversation, Patrick shares the story behind his TEDx talk “The Loss of My Woods” and explores how creativity, nature, and memory shape the human spirit.
Together, he and Gina discuss how creativity isn’t something we master - it’s something we remember.
