Using Creativity to Solve Life's Problems

In this podcast episode, illustrator Liana Fink shares how she uses her creativity to approach life's biggest questions and problems. Fink initially focused on light and quirky cartoons, but a personal breakup prompted her to start drawing more autobiographically. Through making these drawings, she gained a better understanding of herself and realized that others could relate to her experiences. This inspired her to use drawing as a problem-solving tool for various challenges, such as scheduling and dating. Fink also discusses her unique interpretation of God in the book of Genesis, where she portrays God as a self-conscious woman facing artistic limitations. This adaptation allowed Fink to deepen her connection to her religion and embrace her own cluelessness.
