Many Things with Steph Libby
by Stephanie Libby
A podcast for the multipassionate, the curious, and the chronically figuring-it-out crowd. Hosted by Steph Libby — fiction writer, HR professional, and self-proclaimed doer of many things — this show explores what it actually looks like to build a life you love. I talk about career pivots, creative living, romanticizing the everyday, and showing up fully for yourself even when you're still figuring out what that means. Let's talk about the messy, beautiful work of becoming who you actually want to be. New episodes every other Thursday.

Imposter
This week’s word is imposter, and I’m digging into the vague, ever-present feeling that I’m about to be found out, and why no amount of praise or proof seems to quiet it. I talk about being a “chronic beginner” as a multi-passionate person and how I’m starting to make peace with feeling a little...
-
Restore
I thought I’d beaten burnout last fall, but it turns out I’d just gotten really good at hiding it, so this week I’m working through my word of the week: restore. I talk about the guilt of taking time off, the self-doubt that follows me to work, and the steps I’m finally taking to feel more like...
-
Consistency (Yes, I See the Irony)
After some time away from the podcast, I'm back and getting back to basics, starting with a word of the week I clearly need: consistency. I talk about why follow-through has always been hard for me, how a habit tracker I ignored for weeks finally started working, and the small steps that are...

Turning Passions into Real Career Pathways
After months of career counseling, I'm sharing the assessments, exercises, and hard money math that helped me let go of a decades-old "dream job" fantasy and find real clarity as a multi-passionate person. It's an honest look at what it actually costs — financially and emotionally — to figure out...
-
Breaking the Summer Guilt Cycle
I'm taking a step back at the six-month mark of 2026 to reflect on my resolutions, my relationship with consistency, and how I'm finally breaking my old summer guilt cycle. I'm getting real about what financial freedom, multi-passionate living, and "building my dream life" actually mean to me....
-
It’s not a motivation problem
I'm holding myself back. What I've long thought was a motivation or discipline problem is actually a systems issue. In today's episode I talk about this revelation and why it's so hard to just do the things you know, need, and want to do to change your life for the better.
-
I Just Want to Soak Up the Sun
After a morning in the garden, I'm getting real about what it actually means to have my best summer ever — and it has nothing to do with productivity or a glow-up. This year I'm chasing campfires, river floats, and reading in the backyard, and honestly? That sounds pretty perfect to me.

I've Been Wrong About Myself for Over a Decade
What happens when you stumble across a piece of your past that completely rewrites the story you've been telling yourself? Have you ever been so convinced you failed at something that you never stopped to check if that was actually true? That's exactly where I found myself this week. I dug up my...

Dealing with career journey disappointments
What do you do when you feel like you're fumbling your way through your career? We all experience disappointment in work, but it hits harder when you're taking initiative, planning a pivot, or just trying to grow, especially if you feel like you're getting mixed signals from those above you. If...

How’s my life audit going so far?
I called 2026 my Year of Curiosity. I did a life audit to figure out my priorities. So....where has it gotten me? Pretty far, actually. In this episode I review the first quarter of my life audit - where I succeeded, where I didn't, and where I go from here. And I talk about some exciting career...

Many Things and New Beginnings - Being Multipassionate
It's a new day! Formerly Solitary Creature, this podcast is getting a facelift. I'm shedding the skin that no longer fits me and embracing a new name, Many Things, and finally accepting that I'm a multipassionate person who will always be curious in new things instead of trying to work against my...
-
Time for Kindness and Love?
When the world feels chaotic, overwhelming, dark, and adversarial, where does the practice of meeting people with love and kindness factor in? It's easy to extend grace and empathy to people in inner circle, but how and why do we continue that practice when faced with the people we think deserve…

It’s OK to Quit
Quitting is a part of life and I think it should be embraced more. This episode I explore a "good" quit vs. a "bad" quit (hint: it involves fear) and how I'm learning to trust myself more when it comes to quitting...because quitting doesn't have to equal failure.
-
Cultivating Creativity
I'm hyper-focused on creativity lately so this week I'm gabbing about how I unlock creativity, shut down my inner critic, stay inspired, and how my relationship with my creativity has changed throughout the years. And recommendation corner returns!

New Year, New Outlook on Old Resolutions
It's a wrap on 2025, a year filled with unprecedented highs and lows. Sure, New Year's resolutions are a bit cringey, but we still love them, right? I look back on my 2025, the start of this podcast, and the start of this journey. What have I already learned? What am I looking forward to…

Life Audit: Designing an Intentional Life
I can't stop talking about my life audit. I went from emotionally burnt to a crisp to reinvigorated, positive, and ready to realign and reprioritize my focus and live more intentionally and mindfully. So...what is a life audit? What was my approach? And why is it feeling like a life raft right now?

Burnt out and dead tired, but still showing up
This week I'm gabbing about burnout. At 28, my career feels like a cage. I feel anchored to a job and a lifestyle that doesn't fuel me or fill my soul, yet I feel equally aimless and unsure what my next move could be. But I'm also too tired to push myself in a new direction. Welcome to my burnt…

It could be worse (and why that's not helping)
Certain phrases spark unbridled anger. For me, that's "it could be worse." Instead of staying upset about it, I'm taking a deeper look at why this phrase gets under my skin and why I think it's time we take this phrase out of our vocabulary.

Body Image, Emotional Eating & Weight Loss
This week I'm gabbing about my long history with emotional eating, my relationship with food, struggles with eating disorders. How I'm making sense of all of that alongside my body image and weight loss journey and where acceptance, self-love, body positivity, and rejecting peer pressure fits in…

Me, My Codependency, & I

Gratitude, Perspective, & Love for the Little Things
