Being Multi-Passionate Isn’t Flaky—Here’s How I Make It Work

I only recently learned the term multi-passionate, and it was a game-changer for me. For years, I felt ashamed of my many interests, worrying that it made me seem flaky. But now, I see it for what it is—an essential part of who I am and how I navigate life.

In this episode, I break down the practical and logistical ways I manage my multi-passionate career, hoping to offer insights that help you tackle your own passion projects. This is just what works for me, but I’d love to hear from you! Drop a comment and share your own strategies—your perspective might spark new ideas for someone else in this amazing community.

I hope this episode resonates with you and reminds you to honor the passions within you. They exist for a reason.

From my heart to yours,

Greta

About the Podcast

Thought Experiment Called Life

A podcast for multi-passionate creatives forging nontraditional life paths.

This is a podcast for multi-passionate creatives forging nontraditional life paths.
I’ve never neatly fit into any niche, neither do many people, and neither does this podcast. This is a space for the multi-passionate person—the individual who looks at the world with glittering eyes despite the challenges of a multifaceted life. It’s for those seeking inspiration from positive, unconventional lives and hoping to glean lessons to guide their own path. It’s for those who trust that the right message will find them at the right time, no matter how unrelated it may seem.
This is a space for the existential mind and the open heart—those who understand the power of sharing stories to remind others they’re not alone.

I’ve lived many lives in my time here on Earth, and this podcast dives into a plethora of topics, including (but not limited to):
- Living and thriving with Lyme disease (and autoimmune disease).
- Pursuing your purpose in a world that celebrates conformity.
- Staying mentally healthy as a neurodivergent person in an insane world.
- The power and beauty of plant medicine and nourishing nutrition.
- Why learning self-defense is the ultimate self-care (especially for women)
- The magic of jiu-jitsu: a roadmap to growth and success in every area of life.
- Building healthy relationships—romantic and platonic.
- And perhaps most exciting of all, hearing real stories from multi-passionate individuals living fulfilling, unconventional lives.

This space exists to bring you inspiration, tools, resources, and proof that the call in your heart is there for a reason. I’m excited to walk this path with you.

The wild heart in me bows to the wild heart in you.
