Hello, Beautiful Beings!
As a multi-passionate creative, you have super powers. This is part 2 of my multi-passionate artist series.
Are you multi-passionate? Do you get overwhelmed and burned out easily... even when you love what you create? Are you juggling multiple projects at the same time? Do you get burned out easily? Maybe you don't need more discipline, maybe you need more joy, more play and more fun.
I hope this episode of Black Girl Creative Podcast frees you from the need you feel to be easily understood, palatable, rigid and "productive". Let's talk about how companion planting is used in nature to avoid depleting the soil and how we can take that wisdom and apply it to our creative practice. Having hobbies and creative practices that are just for your joy are healing, protecting and nourishing your soul.
Do you feel scatterbrained? Do you feel like you have too many interests and not enough time? Do you find it impossible to niche down or "just pick one thing"? You may be multi-passionate. Your multiple interests serve you well. Your adaptability, curiosity, quick learning, and multiple passions are your creative superpowers.
"A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." - William Shakespeare
There's nothing wrong with you. You are gifted and perfect the way that you are.
You are loved. You are sacred. You are EVERYTHING good.
