Blythe Harris, Mallory May: Creativity Brings You Joy | The Vault With Dr. Judith Joseph

Mallory May and Blythe Harris are lifelong creativity advocates, design thinkers and mess
makers who have spent their careers helping others connect with their innate creativity. Blythe
was co-founder and chief creative officer of Stella & Dot, and has been featured in Inc., Fast
Company, Vogue France, and Elle, and on the TODAY show. Mallory spent over a decade as a
vice president at Sotheby’s before launching a career as an artist, designer, and creative director.
Her work has been featured in Vogue and exhibited at the Museum of Arts and Design in New
York. In 2020, they teamed up to launch DailyCreative.
DAILY CREATIVE: The 5-Minute Habit To Rewire Your Brain is an interactive book that helps
readers turn creativity into a daily wellness practice. Designed for busy lives and short attention
spans, this beautifully illustrated book helps anyone build a fiveminute creative habit that sparks
joy, strengthens mental agility, and rewires the brain for possibility. Featuring 60 accessible
exercises and bonus content that boosts innovation, unlocks perspective, reduces stress, and
quiets perfectionism. No art skills needed. No talent required. Just curiosity, a pen, and five
minutes.
Creativity is not a personality trait. It’s a trainable neural pathway. Even short bursts of playful
creative activity can activate the brain’s reward system, increase dopamine, strengthen
neuroplasticity, and lower cortisol. Five minutes a day can:
● Boost innovation, focus, and problemsolving
● Reduce stress and anxiety
● Improve mental health and emotional resilience
● Expand imagination and personal expression
WHY NOW?
● Rising burnout and overwhelm make simple, accessible wellness habits
essential.
● Creativity is a top future-of-work skill and a driver of mental well-being.
● Consumers are craving analog tools that offer digital relief and emotional
grounding.
