Keep Sailing

Hello, fellow sailors, wanderers, and waymakers. Welcome to the Keep Sailing podcast. I’m your host, Marq Mervin, and thank you for allowing me to accompany you on our journey of life.In this episode, I share some words on being a multi-gifted person (also known as a Renaissance person or Polymath). I grew up being told to "specialize", "find a niche", and "pick one thing". But every time I tried, it always backfired. That's when I realized I'm a multi-gifted person. For a long time, I struggled with it. But over the past few years, I've fully embraced it because I'm meant to be this way...and you are too. I hope these words encourage you to embrace who you naturally are and who you're designed to be: a multi-gifted person.A Little About Me:Hey there, I’m Marq Mervin (he/him), the Renaissance Man, the Creative Waymaker, and founder of 23Thirty. I work with multi-gifted creatives and founders to create the way to their next chapter. I specialize in guiding Creative Pros and Founders through The Gray, rediscovering who they are, and creating the pathway towards a life and legacy of fulfillment. Welcome to 23Thirty.LinkedIn | Marq Mervin | 23Thirty

Hello, fellow sailors, wanderers, and waymakers. Welcome to the Keep Sailing podcast. I’m your host, Marq Mervin, and thank you for allowing me to accompany you on our journey of life.In this episode, I share some words on epiphanies, revelations, and new understandings during my hiatus from the podcast. A remarkable conversation with my students left me pondering, "What if I talk about creative living instead of creative industry?" From education to entrepreneurship, I'm expanding my perspective about "creating" and exploring what it means to live creatively. I hope these words encourage you to (re)define what "create" means for you and your life.A Little About Me:Hey there, I’m Marq Mervin (he/him), the Renaissance Man, the Creative Waymaker, and founder of 23Thirty.

Hello, fellow sailors, wanderers, and waymakers. Welcome to the Keep Sailing podcast. I’m your host, Marq Mervin, and thank you for allowing me to accompany you on our journey of life.In this episode, I share some words on finding hope in dreaming again. One of my dreams was to be a professor. I accomplished it and lived the dream...until I found myself in "The Gray", a place of confusion, uncertainty, and unfulfilled. Only to realize, I was being challenged to dream again. I hope these words encourage you to also dream again...and to turn them into your reality.(Originally aired in 2024)A Little About Me:Hey there, I’m Marq Mervin (he/him), the Renaissance Man, the Creative Waymaker, and founder of 23Thirty.

Hello, fellow sailors, wanderers, and waymakers. Welcome to the Keep Sailing podcast. I’m your host, Marq Mervin, and thank you for allowing me to accompany you on our journey of life.In this episode, I share some words on the practice of patience, kindness, gentleness, and forgiveness. I'm not much of a pet person. But after some life transitions, I learned so much from being a bonus dog dad that brought a welcome change of perspective to my life.
