Affirming Your Multipotentiality, with Angela Cotelessa PhD - The MultiPod 076
from The MultiPod Hosted by Ted Cragg
In this tremendously affirming interview, Flo talks to Angela Cotelessa, who wrote the first PhD on polymaths. Angela shares her research and data, but also her deep insight into the life and reality of polymaths, or, in our language, Puttypeep. Her study looked at common pain points, successes and struggles, emphasizing modern day, relatable people, not the classic historical figures from one hundred years ago. You'll be inspired by Angela herself, and her list of multiple, simultaneous jobs, "careers" even, and how matter-of-fact she juggles them. And Flo shares his own story, talking about being "promoted" from a dynamic, stimulating job to a management and administration position for more money, and the same repetitive, drab tasks every day. As Angela explains, "Any one job is not going to meet all your needs. But it doesn't have to be your whole life. Have a life outside of work. Let's be who we are: smart, strategic, curious, brave. Let's be human."
