What does it take to stay inspired, avoid burnout, and keep growing creatively? 👀 In this week's episode of The Creative Boom Podcast, host Katy Cowan welcomes Khyati Trehan , a designer and 3D visual artist at Google Creative Lab in New York, to share a glimpse into one of the most innovative spaces in the design world. Known for her unique balance of intense creative work and personal projects, Khyati shares the intricacies of her role at Google, a place synonymous with cutting-edge technology and endless experimentation. While she can't disclose everything, Khyati's stories provide an inspiring look at what it's like to be part of a team where creativity knows no bounds. Khyati is constantly creating, whether through her illustration work, collaborations with her sister—who's a musician—or brainstorming sessions in the kitchen with her partner, who also works at Google. She finds a source of energy in her craft that keeps her invigorated rather than drained, turning what could feel like intense pressure into a motivating force. Her ability to stay inspired and eager to learn is a powerful takeaway for anyone navigating the demands of a creative career. During the conversation, Khyati opens up about how she keeps her creativity flowing without falling into burnout, the role of cultural influences in her design work, and the importance of relationships in both her personal and professional life. As someone deeply attuned to the mental and emotional aspects of creative work, she discusses how she uses personal connections and a strong network to sustain her passion. From her reflections on reality TV as a mental escape to her insights on the future of generative AI, Khyati's perspective reveals the many layers of a dynamic and fulfilling creative life. You will gain valuable insights on balancing work and side projects, maintaining a sense of purpose, and finding inspiration in unexpected places. Whether embracing the complexities of relationships, exploring the limitless possibilities of generative AI, or simply learning to find joy in the process, Khyati offers a refreshing reminder of why creativity is such a rewarding journey. It's a must-listen for anyone looking to find harmony in their own creative path while making space for continual growth and innovation. Listen now: https://lnkd.in/e-wjJN6Q
