I'm Not Scattered. I'm a Builder.
from Open Chair Podcast Hosted by Jason
I knew I wanted to be a cop since I was about five years old. I was also the kid selling candy out of my backpack at school and running a little store off my front porch. Two things that the world later told me couldn't both be true. For most of my life I was told I was too scattered. Pick a lane. Narrow it down. Focus. People who loved me said it, and for a long time I believed something was wrong with me because I always had three or four things going at once. So I became the cop, and got almost embarrassed to admit I wanted anything more. This one's a solo sit-down about what happened when I stopped fighting that. I'm a person who builds things. That's not a flaw to fix, it's just how I'm made. So instead of shrinking myself to fit a world someone else built, I started building one that fits how I actually work. We get into being yourself instead of performing an easier version, following your own path when it looks like nobody else's, and why the "expert" isn't always the person you should be listening to. I talk through what this looks like in my own life right now, the businesses I'm building, and why I've stopped forcing consistency and started trusting that the people who need this will find it. Pull up a seat. You're not late. You're right on time.
