The hidden cost of being multipassionate.

Описание: Growing a small YouTube channel as a creator is a grind. You have to come up with ideas, write scripts, plan shots, set up camera gear, lighting, sound—and then edit. Every day, I feel like a beginner.

But here’s the thing—I felt this way in every part of my life, until four years ago.

That's when I discovered the concept of multipotentiality from the book How to Be Everything by Emilie Wapnick. It changed everything. Instead of seeing myself as someone who never sticks with things, I realised I was instead wired for variety, learning, and reinvention.

In this video, I break down:

✅ Why you keep feeling like a beginner (and why that’s not a bad thing)
✅ The superpowers that come with this mindset
✅ Practical strategies to build a life that makes the most of them and works for you
