Multipotentialite. Multi-passionate. Scanner. Renaissance Person. Generalist. Multipod. Whichever term you favor, the meaning behind it is what’s important. According to our guest (and coiner of the term), Emilie Wapnick, a multipotentialite is a person that doesn’t have “one true calling the way that specialists do.” While having the drive to learn new things and master new skills is a fantastic quality and strength to have while job searching, a lot of multi-passionate people struggle with finding a career that “fits” them because they have such a wide range of interests. This makes it hard to narrow down a specific career, since there are so many choices out there that they can thrive in. She stopped by the podcast to share her insight and strategies on how multipotentialites can approach their career search while combining their most-valued passions to create a happy (income-earning) life. Listen to the episode to learn more about how you can take your Jack/Jill-of-All-Trade superpowers to the next level of your career.
