Alongside being a senior product designer at Behance, Jeannie Huang is a botanical artist and photographer. In her talk, she encouraged her audience to sit with the uncomfortability of being bored, with the intention of encouraging creative growth. A firm believer that boredom is necessary, even crucial for creative work. She gives practical suggestions to improve creativity, such as consciously avoiding multi-tasking, focusing on one thing at a time for a given period. Jeannie encourages scheduling in a time to just be, so that you can find value and empathy in the spaces between doing.
