How do you satisfy an impulse to build a living around multiple passions and be in constant learning and growth mode, in a work world that keeps pushing you to pick a single passion or skill-set, become an expert and just keep doing that one thing for life? 
Jonathan & Jenny offer:

Closing the communication gap with multiple resumes / portfolios

Pitching your varied skillset as an asset and differentiator not a detractor

Is it about the size of the organization or actually the scope of opportunity for growth / learning?

Finding your thriving style instead of trying to ‘fit or pigeon hole’

How to query all the ‘shoulds’

Find your guiding lights, even if you’re not connected with them directly

SPARKED BRAINTRUST ADVISOR: Jenny Blake | Website
Jenny is a podcaster, career and business strategist, and an award-winning author of three books: Life After College, the groundbreaking Pivot for navigating what’s next, and her recently published Free Time for optimizing what’s now. 
LISTENER: Sarah, Sparketype: Maven/Performer
Today's listener Sarah shares that when she works in less purposeful, single-focused, non-growth-oriented roles she becomes drained and uninspired once the initial novelty has worn off. She wants to reclaim ‘play’ and variety, pursue different passions and she’s fine always learning and not being an established expert in any one domain.
But, Sarah feels like potential employers want to hire people who are committed to one craft and is feeling pressured to pick a path or profession that feels too limiting. And, she’s not alone. So, how do you handle expressing an impulse for many things when the world of work wants you to be one thing?
