In this episode, we dive into the age-old debate of being a generalist versus a specialist, particularly in the context of career fulfillment and life satisfaction. We explore the societal pressures that push us toward specialization and the potential drawbacks of such a narrow focus. Drawing on personal experiences, the episode emphasizes the benefits of a generalist approach, allowing for greater adaptability, variety, and long-term fulfillment.
• Societal Pressures: From a young age, we're often encouraged to specialize in a particular field, but this might not always lead to fulfillment.
• The Generalist Advantage: Being a generalist can provide more opportunities, flexibility, and adaptability in both career and personal life.
• Real-Life Application: The host shares personal career experiences, illustrating how being a generalist has allowed for diverse opportunities, including high earnings and personal growth.
• Holistic Lifestyle: A generalist approach supports not just career development but also personal growth, health, and overall life satisfaction.
• Decision-Making: It's important to start with a broad approach and then decide whether to specialize later based on personal preferences and life goals.
If you're someone who feels boxed into a specific career path or is struggling with the idea of specialization, this episode is for you. Whether you're in the early stages of your career or considering a mid-life career change, the insights shared here will help you make more informed and fulfilling decisions. Don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments, and let us know how you're navigating the generalist vs. specialist dilemma in your own life!

________________Would you have walked your path if you knew about before you walked it? Do you follow the feeling of something greater (and maybe not understand the feeling)? We talk about the "meandering path" with Larisa Noonan.
Larisa Noonan grew up afraid of burning in Hell. Now she spends her days supporting witchy healers, many of whom grew up as she did, in fundamentalist Christian homes. As an Existential Kink shadow work coach, ancestral healer, and ritualist, Larisa is passionate about using her skills in service of helping witchy healers create Spirit-Guided businesses. Larisa’s ancestors were from France, Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands via Ukraine. She lives with her husband and son on the ancestral homelands of the Q’lispe (Kalispel) tribe in Sandpoint, ID. She no longer fears burning in Hell.

In this deeply personal and empowering episode, I share my journey of embracing a non-traditional career path as a self-proclaimed "professional job hopper." Through my story, I explore the identity crisis many face when trying to fit societal expectations, especially in a culture that values stability and conformity. This episode is a must-listen for those who feel trapped by the pressure to "settle down" in a career, a relationship, or life choices dictated by others.
• Embracing Your True Self: The host discusses the struggle of denying a big part of themselves to conform to societal norms, and how embracing job-hopping led to greater self-awareness and fulfillment.
• Challenging Societal Norms: Society often pushes us to stay in one job or follow a set path, but this may not align with who we are. The episode encourages listeners to question these norms and find their unique path.
• Generational Pressures: The host reflects on the added pressure of being a first-generation American, balancing family expectations with personal desires, and how these influences shape career decisions.
• Taking Risks for Fulfillment: Listeners are encouraged to take risks—whether it's changing jobs, pursuing further education, or following their intuition—to create a life that is true to themselves.
• Redefining Success: The episode challenges the traditional definition of success and encourages listeners to define what success means for them, even if it involves unconventional choices like job-hopping.
This episode is for those who feel out of place in the traditional career mold. If you’ve ever felt guilty or confused about changing jobs frequently, or if you’re struggling with the pressure to conform to societal or familial expectations, this episode will resonate deeply. It’s an invitation to honor your intuition, take risks, and carve out a path that truly reflects who you are.

You have to trust yourself, you have to trust your process, your way of growing and blooming in the environment that you need. Planning has become a societal obsession. The more control we try to have over time, tasks, and things, the more power and peace we might have.I disagree.____________________________________

Does society have your best interest in mind? Why do we feel tired, stressed, and struggling in life? Could it be that society wants us to feel that way so that we DON'T make our own decisions, values, and intentions because then we wouldn't be buying/following/doing what's "expected" of us?___________________________________
