Welcome to the Generally Curious podcast
This is our wall of love, where we keep all of the lovely things people say about us
ICYMI, I was on Milly Tamati & Lindsey Lerner's podcast Generally Curious earlier this month. I've received more feedback on this episode than any pod I've done in the past (normally, it's just my mom texting me).
We talked about:
- Identifying your spiky traits
- Thinking about fit & context rather than strengths & weaknesses
- Creating a personal monopoly
- How to think about generalists vs specialists
Hope you enjoy! Link in comments. Also, check out Generalist World!

Good intentions? Check ✅ But here's the real question: Who's keeping you in check?
Our latest dive into the 🌀Generally Curious world with Kat Gabrielle & Khanyisa Mnyaka, Milly Tamati and I didn’t just chat – we got downright blunt about what it means to really hold each other accountable. It's easy to say you've got good intentions, but when the rubber meets the road, who’s actually checking you?
With DEI efforts getting the axe left and right and the world feeling like a bit of a dumpster fire, it’s more important than ever to be mindful of our impact on each other. Every interaction is a chance to do better, to be better. So, who’s got your back in making sure you’re not just talking the talk, but walking the walk too?
Let's not just aim for good. Let's strive for meaningful impact, with eyes wide open to the responsibilities it entails 💗

Ever been told you're spreading yourself too thin? That you need to 'pick a lane'? Well, this week's episode with the remarkable Kat Gabrielle and the ever-insightful Khanyisa Mnyaka is a bold celebration of why that's complete nonsense! 🎉
Here's a sneak peek:
🎩 The 'Too Many Hats' Myth: Why mastering multiple skills isn't a flaw but a forte.
💔 Breaking Norms: Kat & Khanyi question the bizarre standards society sets for 'specialization.'
👩⚖️ The Greatness Debate: Why should convincing others of your greatness feel like a courtroom battle?
🤣 Laughing at Limits: A hilarious take on societal norms and the underrated joy of being 'too much.'
🌀 Embracing the Generalist Identity: How being multifaceted is not just okay but exceptional.
Join us as we dive into a world where being a generalist isn't just accepted; it's applauded. Prepare for laughter, click moments, and perhaps a moment of, 'Wait, that's me!'

I started listening to 🌀Generally Curious from the moment it hit the air waves and each episode leaves me hungry for more.
I'm only half way through this episode and I have three knock-out quotes I'm taking with me (so far):
❤️ "I have to love the stuff that I think is unlovable too."
▶ ▶ Wow! What a mic drop in the episode! I have spent most of my life trying to focus on the 'good' parts of me and avoid, skip, or override the 'bad'. What I worked on in therapy is to understand that there are no bad parts and to be curious about why those parts of me show up. The parts are telling a story, I just have to listen.
😨 It's cute to say until you f*cking sit with the discomfort.
▶ ▶ It bubbles up in my chest. It burns in my stomach. The tingles crawl up my spine and into my brain. I'm antsy and overwhelmed with sensations and feelings that are hard to describe. Until... I ask myself what the feeling is telling me.
💃 It's your responsibility to show up in your fullness.
▶ ▶ YES! 👏 I am extra - like guacamole 🥑 in your Chipotle burrito. I cost more because I am worth more. I am loud and introspective. I am silly and serious. I can dance on the surface of a networking conversation, or wrap you in my arms with a bear hug when a wave of grief hits unexpectedly.
I'm confident the next half of this podcast is going to be just as full of top tier quotes too!
If you haven't given it a listen, what are you waiting for?

The other week I posted about genuine connection being the primary need for improved mental health throughout society.
🌀 This week, I saw a huge spike in happiness when I had the opportunity to join and meet with an INCREDIBLE group of individuals from Generalist World.
This community of thoughtful, talented, squiggly, and enthusiastic people from around the world is exactly what I needed - and I can't wait to continue to ride this high and build new genuine connections.
