Improvising and finding fun

7 Skills For the Future

What do improvising and having fun have to do with getting through challenging times? A whole lot as it turns out. Listen to this week's interview with the talented Linus Karp as he tells his story of suddenly losing all income and all work overnight when the pandemic struck and having to leave the country!

He talks about long weeks and months with no work but he never stopped creating and never stopped looking for ways to have fun - these are key facets for improvisers - working with what is, continuing to boost a positive attitude and keeping going. Yet he also talks candidly about the days when getting up and just getting a meal on the table was the biggest achievement.

Join us for a little inspiration, a little improv and some great tips. If you watch the podcast on YouTube you'll also be treated to some of Linus's live performances! Watch on Unimenta.
