Hi Youtube!

This week's video is a look at how to feel more creative and be more creative, courtesy of the incredibly popular book by Julia Cameron: "The Artist's Way"!

In this book, Ms. Cameron shares a key tip to nourish your own creative side - going on Artist Dates. What is that, you may ask? Watch the video and find out!

When it comes to creative spots in Toronto though, my artist date led me directly to the Poetry Jazz Cafe, a great hidden gem in the heart of one of Toronto's most popular neighbourhoods: Kensington Market. It might be the best jazz bar in Toronto!

Most people might walk right by, but not you! Now that you know about it, you won't miss out.

Another great spot is the Ossington Strip, close to where Poetry has opened a second location. I'll be covering the strip in another video but it's worth a mention when it comes to nightlife for those in the know!

Hope you enjoy this episode and it inspires you to try something new.
