Description

We’ve been taught to think that being multi-passionate means we’re not good at any one thing, lack focus, and are easily distracted. BUT THAT’S JUST NOT TRUE. Being multi-passionate means you’re curious, interesting, driven to learn, excited about life & being creative. In this episode we talk about what it means to be multi-passionate, how to celebrate and honor you many creative ideas, how to identify the type of multi-passionate you are, and how to do it all - in the best way that works for you.We discuss 4 models which are written in the book “How to be Everything” by Emilie Wapnie:The Group Hug approach: This is about having one multifaceted job or business that involves wearing many different hats.The Slash approach: This model involves having 2 or more part-time jobs going at the same time or move between on a regular basis.The Einstein approach: Here you have one full-time job or business, but it leaves you time and energy to pursue other passions on the side.The Phoenix approach: You work in a single industry for months or years, then to change career in a new industry.Links Mentioned:The Multi-Passionate Phenomenon via The Business & Financial Times“Big Magic” by Elizabeth Gilbert“How to be Everything” by Emilie WapnieInbox Question:“How do you stop comparing yourself? I love the work I create but I always strive to be better. Sometimes I get imposter syndrome along the way.” — Julianna PorterSpecial thanks to our producer Jon from Wayfare Recording Co.Connect With Us:Our Free Facebook CommunityOur WebsiteOur Resources PagePodcast InstagramSupport us on PatreonOur podcast disclaimer can be found by visiting:www.betterbranddesigner.com/disclaimer

Better: The Brand Designer Podcast was founded on the belief that designers need community. We find that the branding world often feels secretive, competitive, and sometimes just plain old confusing. When we realized that our honest, soul-chat-level convos between designer friends could potentially help other designers, we realized a podcast was only natural!Better: The Brand Designer Podcast was created by Giselle Field of Wander Design Co. and Jen Davis from Hello June Creative, who met in a designer's Facebook group in 2019 and became quick design biz buddies. Grievously, Giselle passed away during a climbing trip in Peru in summer of 2020. We encourage all listeners of our podcast to listen to our two Celebrating Giselle episodes. Giselle's adventurous, kind, funny, and supportive presence is missed every day - each and every episode that we record is dedicated to her legacy and her vision for this podcast.In winter of 2022, we welcomed Esther Knox-Dekoning from Sereth Design as a new co-host. It is our honor to continue recording episodes in Giselle's memory and we know that she is with us every time we sit down to record.
