How Thinking About Our Thinking Helps Our Creativity

Season #1

Episode 3: How Thinking About Our Thinking Helps Our Creativity

In today’s episode of Conscious Curiosity, Franck and Matt dive into a deep topic—thinking about their own thinking. That’s right, things start to get deep! 🧠

Together, they explore the paper "Individuals with High Metacognitive Ability Are Better at Divergent and Convergent Thinking" by Jiang et al (2023). This fascinating study explores the link between metacognition (thinking about thinking) and its impact on creative problem-solving.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

  • What is metacognition?: Understanding how thinking about your own thought processes can enhance creativity.

  • The power of divergent and convergent thinking: Breaking down the concepts and how they apply to both personal and professional growth.

  • Metacognition’s role in creative problem-solving: How awareness of your thinking patterns can improve both innovation and decision-making.

  • Real-life applications: Practical examples of how metacognitive ability can impact creativity in daily life, work, and personal projects.
