Have you ever felt like being a “Jack of all trades” was somehow a bad thing? Trust me, I’ve been there. For years, I thought my multi-passionate nature was a flaw—jumping from one interest to another, blending creativity with technology, art with logic. But then, plants showed me something profound: nature thrives in diversity, and so can we. In this episode, I dive deep into embracing your multi-passionate self, mastering the whole instead of focusing on one thing, and thriving in your own ecosystem of talents.
Topics Covered about embracing multipotentiality
➡️ How the phrase “Jack of all trades, master of none” misleads us.
➡️ Why multiplicity and adaptability are your superpowers.
➡️ Lessons from nature: embracing diversity within and around you.
➡️ Practical steps to harmonize your unique talents into a cohesive life.

TRANSCRIPT OF EP.92 STOP SEARCHING FOR YOUR ‘ONE THING’
1
00:00:03.930 –> 00:00:11.510
Hello, Hello, everyone! Welcome back to another episode of reconnect with plant wisdom. It’s me Tigrilla Gardenia.
2
00:00:14.440 –> 00:00:38.240
I you know I have this thing with recording. I always I always kind of struggle at the very, very beginning, and at the very, very, very end, from the perspective of I never know how much chit chatty stuff you want? What do you want to hear about? Do you want to go straight into the episode? Some people are really great about going straight into the episode. I tend to chit chat about what I’m doing when I do the live consciousness commentary on Fridays which is on Youtube.
3
00:00:38.240 –> 00:00:51.029
Oh, my goodness, I sometimes I realize now that I chit chat a lot at the very beginning before we actually get into the paper. But that’s okay. It’s, you know, it’s the way that it is, and if you like the chit Chatty, let me know
4
00:00:51.530 –> 00:01:18.149
especially because I’m totally pumped. Yesterday I had an all day retreat. I got called in, and you know I you know I live in Dom and her one of the largest spiritual communities in the world. We have a lot of different mechanisms, let’s say so. One of the bodies of Dom and her called me and a group of people in for an all day sort of retreat, brainstorming session that, I think, went completely opposite from what they were expecting and yet
5
00:01:18.310 –> 00:01:28.989
amazing. But because of the people, you know, you kind of come into a meeting sometimes where you don’t know who’s there, and you look around, and you’re like, how the hell did they choose this group. And why?
6
00:01:30.830 –> 00:01:37.669
Well, about halfway through the morning I realized why, and it was brilliant thinking on their
7
00:01:40.100 –> 00:02:03.150
super amazing. I love when I have the chance to be in a room with which just happens often thankfully, with all the events that we do in the naturally conscious community, to have a grouping of brilliant people in there. Anyway. I’m not going to get into all of that. If you want to hear more about Damanhur, about the things we do in Dom and her about my life in Damanhur. Leave me a comment, and I will figure out a way to do it. Maybe I’ll just do a whole episode where I talk about my life in Damanhur.
8
00:02:03.150 –> 00:02:10.960
or bring a few Damanhurians around so that you can check it out. You let me know in the comments, and or come into the naturally conscious community and let me know there, all right.
9
00:02:11.090 –> 00:02:16.730
But what are we going to talk about today for for so many years. I’m I felt like
10
00:02:17.720 –> 00:02:31.859
my interests, all of the things I was interested in, all the things I really want to worked on were actually believe it or not, a flaw. The idea that I had all these different thought processes and all these different areas of my life
11
00:02:31.960 –> 00:03:01.750
that I wanted to explore, especially when I was growing up. Felt like, you know, you were doing something wrong. I was told, you know, like many of us, I’m sure to specialize, and so to pick one path and to stick to it. But the truth of the matter is that every time I tried to do that, whether it was when I was dancing or when I was doing something else, it really felt like I was denying parts of myself. It wasn’t until I discovered the whole wisdom of ecosystems, the ecosystem, thinking the thinking like an ecosystem.
12
00:03:01.990 –> 00:03:21.290
Thankfully, thanks to the plants in the sacred woods temple of Damanhur that I realized something profound, which is that in nature thriving isn’t about focusing on one thing. It’s kind of almost why we struggle to identify certain types of plants because they have so many different characteristics
13
00:03:21.290 –> 00:03:37.390
that we, you know that if you’re in one context, you might recognize that plant, for one thing, and if you’re in another context, you might recognize that plant. For another thing, it’s really about weaving together everything into this harmonious whole. And so today I want to share how I went
14
00:03:37.480 –> 00:03:50.380
and how I work through this phrase that haunted me, haunted, haunted, haunted me when I was a kid which was actually not a kid all the way through my twenties, even into the beginning of my thirties.
15
00:03:50.500 –> 00:03:54.240
Jack of all trades, master of none.
16
00:03:54.620 –> 00:04:24.250
and that how I finally realized that that statement is so wrong became the ultimate gift that the plants gave to me, and I want to show you how embracing your multi-passionate nature can unlock incredible opportunities for personal growth, for evolution and for purpose. So this is such an important topic. I really can’t wait to get into it with you. So with that, let’s get into episode 92.
17
00:04:24.510 –> 00:04:28.490
Stop searching for your one thing.
18
00:04:29.940 –> 00:04:49.440
Welcome to reconnect with plant wisdom. I’m your host, Tigrilla Gardenia. Nature inspired mentor, certified life coach and the founder of the naturally conscious community. For over a decade I’ve been known as a world ambassador for plant advocacy, working closely with plants to share their practical wisdom, to help you consciously embody the elements of life.
19
00:04:49.750 –> 00:04:58.199
Your evolution. In this podcast I delve into ancient and modern knowledge, from biology to spirituality, about the wondrous ways of plants.
20
00:04:58.320 –> 00:05:19.069
Together we’ll explore how ecosystem thinking helps you overcome limiting beliefs, understand the true nature of relationships and live an authentic, impactful life. So here are some of the key things that we’re going to touch on in this episode. First, st the misunderstanding of this whole Jack of all trades, master of none. Phrase
21
00:05:19.210 –> 00:05:46.280
also how you go from multi-passionate to masterful. So what does it really mean to embrace diversity, and look at that as a strength, not just diversity in a group, but diversity in yourself. Spent a lot of time yesterday talking about diversity when it comes to a people, a group, a community. But there is a lot to be said, and probably very little that is being shared with you about the diversity of self, and from there we go into learning from nature. What is it that
22
00:05:46.540 –> 00:06:10.659
nature shows us in this ecosystem thinking, and about the mastery of the whole. And I really want to get into some practical steps. Actually, I’m going to give you an exercise at the very end that can help you sort of step deeper into this and deeper into your impact. My hope, as always by the end of this episode, is, I want you to feel like you can finally live all of those paths
23
00:06:10.660 –> 00:06:18.250
that you have freely, and to see that your ability to bounce back and to move from one to the other
24
00:06:18.250 –> 00:06:42.990
as a strength, not a hindrance. Inspired by this. You know by what nature shows us by what nature awakens inside of us. I really hope that you’re going to see yourself as a whole ecosystem, able to harmonize your diverse talents, and to really move and weave together these different parts of yourself into a meaningful and impactful life. I mean, honestly, we’re already starting to have so many
25
00:06:43.160 –> 00:07:06.340
good conversations about the fact that, like your gut biome and the whole idea that we have biomes in our body. So physiologically speaking, we are getting closer to this concept. It’s in the emotional psychological talent based piece where we still have a little bit of work to do. So before we get into all the details. I want to share with you one of our eco-conscious business partners.
26
00:07:07.520 –> 00:07:22.190
The 1st time I connected with a plant and actually received a response, I got chills. It’s such an invigorating sensation when you make a breakthrough like that, and realize just how connected we are, and that we are. Nature
27
00:07:22.360 –> 00:07:34.080
as a nature inspired mentor myself, I was super excited to stumble upon the shift network and its mission to empower global network of evolutionary change. Agents talk about my kind of movement.
28
00:07:34.200 –> 00:07:47.880
There are so many inspiring thought leaders, healers, empaths, and other visionaries, all under one roof, each one on an individual and collective mission to help you reawaken and co-create a just and prosperous world.

30
00:07:59.880 –> 00:08:29.149
Okay, so let’s get into the 1st point. This massive, in my opinion, massive for some of us misunderstanding of the term Jack of all trades. So and really, how this term has changed or has impacted people like us, all of us, multi-passionate, multi-potential, probably also neurodivergent type of thinking that you you know how you see yourself the image that that phrase brings up
31
00:08:29.680 –> 00:08:45.899
growing up. I have to admit I was completely haunted by this phrase. It seemed to cast this massive shadow over everything that I loved about myself, my curiosity, my vulnerability, my ability to adapt to different interesting groups. To me.
32
00:08:46.270 –> 00:08:50.869
I thought originally it meant that if I enjoyed many things
33
00:08:51.320 –> 00:08:55.809
this phrase was telling me that I couldn’t actually be
34
00:08:56.310 –> 00:09:12.990
good at them. The more I liked things. The more diversity there was in my life, the less effective I could be. That was the message. And this belief followed me in everything. For example, I danced. I danced for
35
00:09:13.480 –> 00:09:14.869
probably about
36
00:09:15.050 –> 00:09:21.940
solidly dancing, you know, taking lessons, going to dance class on a regular basis about 9 years of my life.
37
00:09:21.960 –> 00:09:47.939
but I didn’t stick to one style. I did ballet. I did jazz. I loved Spanish dance. I, you know, really just loved to skip around and to try all these different things. I was also didn’t help that, you know. As you know, I have body dysmorphia. It didn’t help that. I was chubby, and I couldn’t like really jump really high. But that wasn’t the point right. The dancing had a whole other series of expression. It was extremely flexible, and
38
00:09:48.140 –> 00:10:14.400
in my humble opinion. I feel like I’m graceful. Maybe somebody else might not agree with that, but I thought I was graceful, and so I thought I had other things to bring. But the idea of being a dancer, it was again because I loved so many different styles didn’t really fit into it. I also was the same way, academically, my interests ranged from math to social sciences, to music, to theater, to I really just loved it.
39
00:10:14.620 –> 00:10:27.989
exploring all these different kinds of academic topics, and while I was relatively a good student, and I did have a period in my life, especially where I was in a high bracket, like in relation to my studies.
40
00:10:28.560 –> 00:10:51.870
I wasn’t considered in some ways to be, you know, academically successful, because I didn’t have that 1 point, you know, like this is the science person, or this is the math person, and, to be honest, it really filled everything. My social life was just as eclectic. I could have been with the academic nerds in one way. I love nerds, by the way. No, no, you know nothing shady there.
41
00:10:51.870 –> 00:11:06.929
and the next day I was hanging out with the heavy metal crowd. Because I really loved, you know, everything was the eighties, you know, heavy metal rock and roll all of that kind of stuff, glam metal. I could go to the extremes to be in super technically proficient bands to like.
42
00:11:07.120 –> 00:11:09.949
I don’t know super.
43
00:11:10.160 –> 00:11:17.209
I was thinking of bands like Vayne and stuff which were really glammy at the time, and I just loved it. I just couldn’t fit into one little box.
44
00:11:17.210 –> 00:11:42.090
and at the time I, while I would enjoy it from the perspective of what I was doing, when I would sit back and think of my life, or you come home, and you’re trying to think about yourself, and you’re trying to put yourself into these teenage boxes. I would think of all of this as a massive flaw. Even when I excelled receiving awards, or even, you know, opening myself up to new opportunities, I tried to downplay my achievements because they were
45
00:11:42.090 –> 00:11:44.579
spread out across different areas, so I couldn’t.
46
00:11:44.580 –> 00:12:13.300
I didn’t see the value of one for the other. It felt like, really, society didn’t value my breath. It valued focus specialization and clear direction, and this mindset honestly followed me into university. I studied music, engineering, and electrical engineering, but before I got into that I was doing philosophy, sociology and psychology. Yes, all 3 of them together, and my focus was on law. And so it was all about law and such. So
47
00:12:13.580 –> 00:12:35.929
I came in with this kind of breath already. And then I got into this engineering where everybody was focused. You know, I was this type of music. You know, the people were this type of musician and this type of engineer, and I did piano for a while, and then switched instruments, which is not something that’s recommended in a music school in a university level over to voice because the music
48
00:12:36.060 –> 00:12:39.250
performance wasn’t my biggest piece.
49
00:12:39.430 –> 00:13:03.860
And then I did recording studio and live sound. I just couldn’t resist exploring acoustics and band management and equipment repair outside of class. I ended up taking, you know, multiple internships, because I really wanted to feel the practical nature of what we were doing. So I went into. I worked in a radio station. I worked in a recording studio with Rem when they were doing the mass. You know the monster album, and I was a
50
00:13:03.860 –> 00:13:27.820
second engineer to a whole series of really interesting characters, because it was one of the best studios in South Florida at the time, and I even went into like. For example, at night I would go work with different bands. I was doing merch stuff. I mean, I was just trying to explore the industry that I was in, while at the same time I also was exploring all areas of hockey because I was really into hockey.
51
00:13:28.370 –> 00:13:39.210
You’re starting to get the picture. Okay? I kind of from some people’s eyes lacked direction. I thought I had tons of direction. It was just going in multiple place. So
52
00:13:39.380 –> 00:13:42.170
when I thought about a career, I
53
00:13:42.340 –> 00:13:47.190
didn’t know what the heck I was going to do. I had no idea I believed.
54
00:13:48.270 –> 00:13:51.520
How do I say this? I believed that
55
00:13:51.860 –> 00:13:59.430
I kept trying to convince myself that if I could only pick one thing to be great at then I could be somebody
56
00:13:59.720 –> 00:14:01.319
I didn’t.
57
00:14:01.830 –> 00:14:13.330
I didn’t have a dream of like I’m going to be this person because I couldn’t figure out how all of my different talents were going to connect together, and I believed
58
00:14:13.490 –> 00:14:17.280
this so strongly that I didn’t recognize
59
00:14:17.480 –> 00:14:24.639
the real reason. Opportunities kind of kept coming my way, when things would show up for me to do or
60
00:14:24.660 –> 00:14:29.180
job opportunities, or people would ask me to do things. I thought it was a fluke.
61
00:14:29.190 –> 00:14:56.390
I never. So I didn’t really become super good at networking. I didn’t get so really good at selling myself, because what was there to sell. I was just this big amalgamation of all these different types of things. I couldn’t connect the dots. I used to say this to myself. I remember when I was working in the corporate world, I would say how I didn’t know how to connect the dots like I couldn’t see how things fit together, which is hysterical. Now.
62
00:14:56.390 –> 00:15:05.350
since it’s 1 of my biggest strengths, one of my biggest strengths is to be able to recognize in a wide landscape with lots of dots.
63
00:15:05.350 –> 00:15:11.819
How it is that those dots sort of come together! How do you weave those threads together? So I always find it
64
00:15:11.970 –> 00:15:37.749
hysterical to think that when I was younger. If, when people would ask, I was not a big idea person, I couldn’t see the whole, because I was participating in so many different parts of you know all the small aspects of it. So to me they seemed like unrelated skills and experiences throughout all of that time. Oh, if I only knew then what I know now.
65
00:15:37.880 –> 00:16:06.689
I just really thought it was luck. I totally thought it was luck. I never realized the power of my adaptability like I didn’t realize that I was really good at adapting. I didn’t realize that I was really good at adapting while still maintaining my core essence, because in all of this I never felt fake. In other words, I didn’t go into a group thinking, Oh, I need to adapt to what that group is doing what I did was kind of the opposite, and I’m sure some of you know how to do this, but I’m trying to.
66
00:16:06.690 –> 00:16:25.249
I hope that you will realize that this is actually a skill that you can enhance and bring out, which is, you go into a group, you start to hang out with that group, and you realize that there’s parts of yourself that love what this group is doing and those get enhanced. And then when you’re in that.
67
00:16:25.400 –> 00:16:36.119
you pull little threads from the other stuff, so none of your other things get occulted, which is, I think, the big difference. The people who are faking it.
68
00:16:36.370 –> 00:17:00.310
You’ve probably done this, too, because you felt like you needed. To. Which is, you? Go into a situation, and you hide all these other parts of yourself. I never hid my other parts. I just allowed the part that was most connected to that group to be the front face, and then I would bring in other aspects which I always thought was
69
00:17:00.310 –> 00:17:27.440
so much fun, because I had the opportunity to, in a very comfortable way, and in a very safe way which later on became my skill for creating safe space to introduce new concepts, because the person the people the group knew I was one of them knew I understood them, whether I was hanging out with like I said, academic nerds, or the freaks, or the heavy metal folks they knew I knew them. They knew I was part of them.
70
00:17:28.430 –> 00:17:31.180
probably not to the same level that they were.
71
00:17:31.340 –> 00:17:37.650
which, you know, was the other side of the coin, but still they knew I got it. And so when I would talk about something different.
72
00:17:37.890 –> 00:17:40.279
it was like, Okay.
73
00:17:40.570 –> 00:18:10.509
let me introduce this with words that they would understand words that fit into the frame of reference that they are, and over the years that skill has allowed me to introduce concepts into groups in a way that feels very safe and nurturing, and that’s that adaptability and that curiosity didn’t start to see this strength until I was way older, and that phrase that I had been hunted by, which was
74
00:18:10.970 –> 00:18:23.199
Jack. Of all trades, master of none. The idea that breath is actually a weakness and depth is actually the strength started to lose its grip. It was.
75
00:18:23.470 –> 00:18:33.769
I started to understand, very, very, very slowly. By the way, this is a path that probably took me. I’m going to be really honest with you about 20 years
76
00:18:33.880 –> 00:18:49.750
around the time of you know, it took me, yeah, about 20 years, maybe 15, to actually step into the idea that Jack of all trades didn’t mean I was aimless. It meant I was dynamic.
77
00:18:50.110 –> 00:18:53.099
The turning point really came
78
00:18:53.630 –> 00:19:22.300
when I found myself. For example, let me say this, my 1st turning point, my 1st sort of awakening to the idea that oh, wait a minute! Things could be different was when I realized that I had in my corporate life and in, you know, working at Microsoft and I had reached a level what many people would consider to be successful right I had. I had the life people really wanted to have, and yet it was deeply
79
00:19:22.300 –> 00:19:39.759
unfulfilling, but not unfulfilling. And this is, I think, where I differ from many of the people that I hear. Many people leave corporate life because they say I can’t do it anymore. I hated it. I hated the grind. I hated the hustle. I hated all these types of things. That was not my case.
80
00:19:40.030 –> 00:19:56.899
My case was I wanted more. I felt it limiting, not limiting in that career, although, to be 100% honest for those who knew me. Back then, I did have a period where it was really bad. My boss hated me all these types, anyways
81
00:19:57.590 –> 00:20:26.149
again, if I only knew now like, knew then what I know now I did have a bad period, but more than anything I had, and this was the last boss that I had. We had this conversation a lot, because he’s also somebody who went on to do amazing things, amazing things. And I so grateful for the time that we did have that we worked together. And there is a part of me that wishes I would have followed him because he kept telling me, Do not leave. Trust me. We’re doing shit work right now, but we’re going to be able to do amazing things soon.
82
00:20:26.630 –> 00:20:35.740
There is a little bit of kicking myself, because if I would have listened to him. But again, it would have been super specialized in an area that honestly, today only partially interests me.
83
00:20:35.940 –> 00:21:00.650
I felt like I just didn’t have enough breath. And that turning point came when I started to. I was acting. I started to sing. I started to, you know, be in the arts world as well as my corporate life, and I met a whole group of people that were multi-passionate individuals that were doing it. They were living these lives that were just so much more.
84
00:21:01.170 –> 00:21:09.720
so much more, I want to say enriching, but it’s not that it was enriching, it was so much, there was so much more period, so much more to it.
85
00:21:09.830 –> 00:21:34.209
And that reminded me when they pulled me in, that my diversity, the fact that I could perform because, you know, I could, I could sing, I could dance. I could be up on stage. Which is how I walked into this. But I also understood technology. I understood marketing. I understood communications. I understood the psychology of circus freaks like I understood a whole series of other things.
86
00:21:34.210 –> 00:21:41.970
I knew how to touch the Jock world. I knew how to touch all these other worlds that became this massive strength that
87
00:21:42.160 –> 00:21:43.720
thankfully
88
00:21:43.840 –> 00:22:02.829
to practice because I was able to, I left my corporate life and allowed myself to like what’s when I started my production company, my 1st company and I started to put together things that were different. I started to create things in my vision, the vision and I started to realize that I had vision
89
00:22:03.630 –> 00:22:14.209
when I started to work with plants that brought everything that I just talked about into conscious thought. Like all of a sudden it was.
90
00:22:14.420 –> 00:22:15.250
huh!
91
00:22:15.430 –> 00:22:27.749
I did this, this, this and this. Oh, my goodness! That means that if I apply what I did unconsciously in this way, consciously, I could do even more like.
92
00:22:28.010 –> 00:22:33.879
It was just this amazing idea of recognizing all these traits inside of myself.
93
00:22:34.070 –> 00:22:46.400
and how this diversity contributed to the ecosystem that I was creating as an overall whole. And that’s when I realized in all of that which is, I’m not a Jack of all trades
94
00:22:47.300 –> 00:22:53.310
and a master of none, like I am a jack of all trades, but I am a master of the whole.
95
00:22:53.440 –> 00:23:08.080
the whole self, my whole ecosystem of talents, my whole range of experiences and passions, and all of these elements together, I can master them to
96
00:23:08.660 –> 00:23:14.159
create or co-create. Really the ecosystem that I want to be in.
97
00:23:14.580 –> 00:23:19.849
and that’s when it flipped from me, being able to say, and so are you.
98
00:23:19.990 –> 00:23:24.660
because up until then it had been my unconscious journey.
99
00:23:24.860 –> 00:23:27.630
Once it became conscious.
100
00:23:27.950 –> 00:23:41.859
Once it opened, this whole path opened itself to being able to see why those opportunities that were coming to me were not dumb luck. They were
101
00:23:42.210 –> 00:23:54.799
the results of my expression, of my putting into action, of my not being afraid to jump from group to group. I wasn’t jumping from group to group because I was hiding things. That’s a very different thing.
102
00:23:54.960 –> 00:24:23.250
I wasn’t jumping to get away, which is again a very different thing. Trauma and fears, and those types of things can take hold, and that can look very similar to. I am jumping around because I have lots of interest. That is not the same of. I am jumping around because I don’t feel comfortable or happy, or as if this is for me, or I am capable, or the very famous.
103
00:24:23.360 –> 00:24:24.899
I am not worthy
104
00:24:25.700 –> 00:24:37.390
that jumping around is an avoidance technique, my jumping around and the jumping around. I want you to be able to do when you have multiple passions
105
00:24:37.580 –> 00:24:41.170
is a conscious adaptability
106
00:24:41.190 –> 00:24:54.370
that brings everything. You are into the new environment and then focalizes it, focalizes it, is focalized into yes, focuses it. Excuse me, I’m thinking, in multiple
107
00:24:54.370 –> 00:25:12.609
focuses it in one direction. So you, for that moment or better said, allows one part of you to become the shining light, and everything else to be the fuel to be what? What keeps that light, and what colors
108
00:25:12.610 –> 00:25:30.999
you shined in that light? That is really the difference, bringing it into conscious awareness, not focusing on one thing only, and negating everything you are, but allowing you to move into environments and even switch from environments.
109
00:25:31.000 –> 00:25:51.039
where you take all of your talents and you orientate it towards one direction. But you’re bringing everything else in with it at the same time, so that you can pull. That is that weaving that I keep talking about that weaving your multiple talents together. This is what it means when I walk into a meeting like yesterday.
110
00:25:51.340 –> 00:26:16.349
and I can use a reference to hockey, or I can use an analogy connected to you know I can be talking to all these, a trauma informed facilitator, a conflict resolution. A trainer of, you know, corporate trainer, we can have these amazing discussions of our facilitation skills, of our ability to help others
111
00:26:16.570 –> 00:26:20.899
while still maintaining our you know our vast
112
00:26:21.390 –> 00:26:36.489
what’s the word? I’m looking for our Basque tool chests with us, and we can allow each one to shine through their specific light, and still enhance that light through all of our experiences. And that was the ecosystem that we were creating.
113
00:26:36.890 –> 00:26:44.740
This brings me to the second point, which is for all of us need to find the thing that helps us understand who we are.
114
00:26:45.130 –> 00:26:51.269
And that could be multiple things again, we’re multi-passionate. We’re very alternative thinking.
115
00:26:51.830 –> 00:26:57.760
And so there are going to be lots of different things for me. It’s been. Nature has been the
116
00:26:57.780 –> 00:27:16.740
the connection to plants has given me an overarching container, overarching container, that says, I am a being of nature. Therefore all these things I see in nature, which is so diverse, right temperate rainforests, temperate forests, rainforests.
117
00:27:16.740 –> 00:27:31.920
you know, deserts ocean, you know, plants. There’s so many different types of environments that plants come in. And yet there is this sort of uniting factor of the fact that we’re we’re all, you know, nature.
118
00:27:32.330 –> 00:27:47.270
and we have all this aspect to it. And so this has been for me my unifying factor. That includes that alternative thinking right? And what is it that plants
119
00:27:47.270 –> 00:28:03.609
teach us about the value of multiplicity and of integration and of being adaptive while not losing your identity, you know. Like I said, I was constantly torn between my various passions when I was a kid and I, you know, being able to have all these different parts of us.
120
00:28:03.670 –> 00:28:12.250
But when I was in my 30 s. And I felt like I was sort of like had to make a change, because what I was doing was not enough.
121
00:28:12.490 –> 00:28:13.175
It
122
00:28:14.360 –> 00:28:17.769
When I, for example.
123
00:28:18.950 –> 00:28:29.860
now I lost my train of thought. I lost my train of thought. I’m trying to figure out where to come back into the train, because there’s just so many things that I want to talk about. And I want to be specific, because I want you to feel like you’re walking away here with
124
00:28:29.970 –> 00:28:51.510
not just a realization of yourself, but also ways for you to identify. How is it that you put all of this into practice? What does this mean about you? Where do you go with it. How do you blend these different parts of yourself? For me, for example, my technical know-how, my creativity, my ability to connect across disciplines, these are all these hallmarks of my passion itself.
125
00:28:51.510 –> 00:29:00.559
my language skills, my ability to be able to flip in one culture to another. All of these sort of shifts meant
126
00:29:00.560 –> 00:29:25.920
that I had to start to look at being a generalist, not as a bad thing, but, on the contrary, not as a lack of direction or lack of specialization or lack of depth, but actually, as a superpower, like multiplicity became my specialization. I am specialized. I am specialized at using lots of different things I am specialized
127
00:29:26.520 –> 00:29:33.590
moving through a wide breadth landscape of tools.
128
00:29:33.780 –> 00:29:38.900
Did I ever tell you that I actually wrote a draft to a book that is called
129
00:29:39.620 –> 00:29:45.030
Your Spiritual Toolbox, and I wrote this book
130
00:29:45.680 –> 00:29:54.840
from a old one of my projects, which was called What was it called Answers from Bina.
131
00:29:56.680 –> 00:30:21.230
Yeah. Something like that answers from Bina. It was a Kabbalistic kind of dear Abby website that I had for a while, where people could ask me questions, and I would respond with either rituals or meditations, or something to help them find the responses to what they were. And and it was a great, and I wrote this this book draft. That was about
132
00:30:21.690 –> 00:30:26.410
all these different tools, and I called it your spiritual toolbox, because obviously, at the time.
133
00:30:26.500 –> 00:30:50.540
as I am today, and as I still use. I don’t really have one specific type of tool that I use. I use sometimes meditation and sometimes art projects, and I use sometimes writing and sometimes speaking, and I might use ritual. I love using ritual, and even in rituals I have a long breath, I mean a wide, not long, wide breadth of all kinds of different types of rituals that I work on, and
134
00:30:50.540 –> 00:31:06.360
that I use sometimes it might be a short term ritual. Sometimes it might be a very long form ritual. Sometimes it be more like spell casting and all the work that I do with plants. Basically, it was your spiritual toolbox, because I wanted to show you.
135
00:31:06.410 –> 00:31:14.080
and that there are many, many different types of tools, and how to apply tools. And what is the application of them, which is really just another way of saying
136
00:31:14.190 –> 00:31:21.489
I’m another multi-passionate. I’m passionate about all these different topics, and so therefore I want to like bring them together into something
137
00:31:21.910 –> 00:31:27.709
somewhere around there is that draft of that book, maybe. Who knows? Maybe one day I’ll pull it out and I’ll do something with it.
138
00:31:29.990 –> 00:31:39.029
It would be really great to do it. Anyways, it was really this mindset shift in the forest. So I was walking around the sacred woods temple of Jamunhur one day.
139
00:31:39.210 –> 00:31:50.530
and I sat down at some point, and I kind of felt called to sit there, and as I was looking around I got this message that was like, no, no, no! Look around, look around.
140
00:31:50.780 –> 00:31:54.470
There is no junkyard here. There is no dump.
141
00:31:55.100 –> 00:31:59.169
Everything that you’re seeing is being used by somebody.
142
00:31:59.300 –> 00:32:04.389
So all of these traits that you have, even those that you keep trying to get rid of
143
00:32:04.490 –> 00:32:27.530
my critic, which you’ve heard me talk about. My judgment at the time all these different parts of yourself, that you think something is wrong with all these different ideas and passions and different skill sets that you keep trying to put away in a box as if I’m not going to use them. Now. All of these in an ecosystem get used.
144
00:32:27.530 –> 00:32:38.089
Everything gets used. So therefore it’s really about changing the way that you apply them, you want to use them. You want to switch into everything.
145
00:32:38.260 –> 00:32:40.260
And that
146
00:32:40.420 –> 00:32:53.449
was that constant that shift that I talked to you about that shift that went from. Oh, my goodness, I have been doing this without realizing it and punishing myself for doing it, because I thought it was wrong
147
00:32:53.880 –> 00:33:00.540
when now I can consciously do it and put it to use for myself.
148
00:33:00.710 –> 00:33:15.619
And wow! So much of my life changed, but also for others. I mean, now I work with creative, neurodivergent individuals that are brimming with ideas. They have so many ideas. They think something is wrong with all these ideas they come in with the same struggle.
149
00:33:15.620 –> 00:33:32.720
They keep looking at themselves as if something is wrong. They’re serial entrepreneurs. They have countless different projects, or even within one thing that they’re doing their mind pings to all these different pieces, some of it induced by fear.
150
00:33:32.800 –> 00:33:45.590
Let’s be honest, it’s not that we don’t have fears as multi-passionate. On the contrary, some of them are being redirected because of fears, or I’m not good enough imposter syndrome. I am unworthy.
151
00:33:45.990 –> 00:33:58.279
This isn’t. This is coming too easy. Oh, my goodness, the multipotentialite struggles from this, because some of the passions we have come so easy that we don’t even consider them, because if it comes easy.
152
00:34:00.220 –> 00:34:20.619
why, that doesn’t mean anything. If it’s no pain, no gain right? We have all of these, or or I have so many that it means none of it’s going to work because I’m going to start something. And then I’m going to jump over to something else. We don’t see how starting something and jumping to somebody else could be the continuation of that something that you started.
153
00:34:20.900 –> 00:34:27.489
We we don’t necessarily always see the thread that connects them. And that’s that’s where I come in now, because with this conscious
154
00:34:27.630 –> 00:34:29.370
realization
155
00:34:29.480 –> 00:34:38.760
I can help you see it. I can put that landscape that you’re already building that ecosystem that you’re creating. I can
156
00:34:38.800 –> 00:35:04.100
lay it out in front of you in a language that you understand, for some of you that might be visual for some of you. It might be through music some way, it might be through some kind of mathematical equation. It doesn’t matter. We can find it right. We can map out your unique ecosystem of talents and passions, and start to consciously see for you
157
00:35:04.410 –> 00:35:10.109
how they have been coming together this entire time.
158
00:35:11.020 –> 00:35:25.029
how you are actually the unknown master of a whole series of things that you haven’t allowed yourself to accept your mastery on. You’ve been too humble.
159
00:35:25.210 –> 00:35:27.260
too too humble.
160
00:35:27.590 –> 00:35:48.620
And how not only do you have to be a mask. Can you be a master of all these individual things, and let me be really clear here. Mastering doesn’t mean you are the most amazing violin player in the face of this earth. You could be right. But if you play violin and drums, and this and that, you’re probably an amazing violin player. But look, let’s be honest. I’m not going to put you up there.
161
00:35:48.880 –> 00:36:06.119
I was going to say some famous violin player, but I don’t. The only person that’s coming into my mind right now is a cello player, which is Yo-yo, ma, because he’s famous, and probably you would understand. So let’s go back to let’s go to cello instead of violin. You’re not going to be yo-yo, ma, who’s only been playing violin for him, I mean violin cello for his entire life.
162
00:36:07.090 –> 00:36:33.720
But that doesn’t mean that you can’t be the master of. Why cello playing is important, or of the elements you get out of cello playing that you then apply them to. I don’t know your current day job or to the business that you’re creating, or to a ritual that you’re writing. Right? You take the elements, the mastery of the elements that are important to you, and you apply those elements in another location
163
00:36:33.730 –> 00:36:48.580
that is really the main power force of a multi-passionate multipotentially a person with multiple talents. Yes, has the mastery, to a certain extent, of that talent itself.
164
00:36:48.590 –> 00:37:14.599
But more than anything you get to master what you take out of that talent right? You know when you watch masterclass like, if anybody’s ever watched any of these master classes from masterclass, whatever it is.org Orcom, or something like that. And you see, you know Yo-yo, ma, who comes and tells you why his cello playing has changed his relationship with somebody else. Right? Because he applies these principles in other areas. You’re not
165
00:37:14.600 –> 00:37:19.549
necessarily getting a masterclass from Yo-yo ma on how to play a cello.
166
00:37:19.910 –> 00:37:47.020
You’re getting a master or a master gardener who’s trying to like. You’re not necessarily only getting a masterclass on this companion plant to this companion plant works together, and you want to plant them in this month because the temperature is like this. That’s 1 element of it. But it’s also the listening to the garden or listening to the music. And that emotion that comes through it, and all these other aspects that they teach from it
167
00:37:47.220 –> 00:37:56.760
as a multipotentialite. More likely you are taking those types of elements and bringing them into other things you do. That is that famous weaving I’m talking about.
168
00:37:56.760 –> 00:38:18.939
The weaving is, what are you getting out of it? What is the experience that comes to you from that, you know, for me hockey game, or from whatever it is exercise that you might love to do that crocheting or that knitting. It is the pattern itself that you get to build the knots, the knowing how to do it, the being able to create a sweater or a character.
169
00:38:19.300 –> 00:38:31.709
But more importantly than that is all the collateral skills that’s the mastery. That’s the weaving multiplicity doesn’t dilute your potential
170
00:38:32.010 –> 00:38:37.840
it it absolutely doesn’t. It’s the opposite. It enhances it.
171
00:38:37.960 –> 00:38:55.650
Every skill, every passion, every so-called detour that you have taken, contributes to this unique pattern, just the same as every plant does this in their ecosystem, because they have to adapt to the changing conditions around, so they have to take
172
00:38:55.650 –> 00:39:19.480
all of their different elements and apply them in different ways. They apply them in one way to fungus. They apply them in another way to, you know, another plant that’s living nearby. They connect into the sun in one way when it’s clear day and in a completely different way when it’s cloudy, what happens when another tree or a different kind of plant, grows over them, or when an animal takes root in them.
173
00:39:19.590 –> 00:39:44.910
all of these things are detours and changes, and the plant is constantly pulling up from all of their skills, everything that they’ve experienced and adapting and using that to create their own unique pattern. And this is what you’re looking to do. What is your unique, deep pattern that you’re expressing, and that
174
00:39:45.100 –> 00:39:49.109
this is your role in the ecosystem of your life.
175
00:39:49.480 –> 00:39:55.570
When I began to understand this element something absolutely incredible happened.
176
00:39:55.850 –> 00:39:58.520
I stopped fighting my nature.
177
00:39:58.920 –> 00:40:07.240
I was able to sit in all of this duplicity and multiplicity that is me, and
178
00:40:07.860 –> 00:40:15.470
apply it consciously. Whatever environment I go into. I know I can thrive in that environment.
179
00:40:15.640 –> 00:40:39.140
I know I can make this environment work for me. Sometimes I’m going to change the environment. Sometimes I’m going to pull from different parts of myself to adapt to the environment. Sometimes I’m going to partner with the environment. And I’m going to create something completely new for the environment. I am going to work that way, and that’s what my clients are doing. My clients are learning how to recognize that all of that
180
00:40:39.460 –> 00:40:43.920
ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping, ping! That’s going on in their minds
181
00:40:44.310 –> 00:40:55.660
is actually their mind’s way of processing. It’s almost as if you’re scanning the environment, and then scanning yourself to see all the different ways.
182
00:40:56.000 –> 00:41:03.509
And this is really how the natural world also does it. That’s why we talk a lot about awareness
183
00:41:03.870 –> 00:41:28.039
and perception, and all these different senses that plants have that state of awareness of conscious aware. Well, some would argue the conscious awareness. But that’s a conversation for the plant conscious commentary. Let’s just call it awareness that everybody agrees that plants are aware of their environment and they’re constantly scanning. They’re constantly active and doing this. That’s why ecosystems are my ultimate teacher.
184
00:41:28.180 –> 00:41:34.350
They’re my ultimate way of understanding and working with the world.
185
00:41:34.440 –> 00:41:45.759
And this is why, understanding that I am an ecosystem, that my talents, my passions, my seemingly random interests and ideas, all contribute to the whole.
186
00:41:45.790 –> 00:42:06.649
That is what allows me to be a part of any other ecosystem, and just like a forest, needs diverse species to flourish my life, my personal way that I process things, and probably yours. If you’re here, too, requires the full expression of my multiplicity to thrive.
187
00:42:07.180 –> 00:42:08.130
So
188
00:42:08.260 –> 00:42:36.210
with plants I’ve been able to work with. What does it mean to flow? What does it mean to adapt? What does it mean to hide things? What does it mean to transform or evolve them? A vine doesn’t second guess whether it should grow in a certain direction. It tries, it explores, it moves through the darkness before it reaches the light. It why did I just say it? Because I got all carried away. And my language skills went.
189
00:42:36.350 –> 00:42:49.930
Which is what happens. Have you ever noticed that, too? You have this intricate, beautiful, verbose way of speaking in a good way, and then all of a sudden, you get all passionate, and you go down to the most elementary of words that happens to me all the time
190
00:42:52.360 –> 00:42:55.660
all the time, which is, you know.
191
00:42:56.920 –> 00:43:11.740
it’s just the way things process. Right? So my hope is that you can start to learn how to trust all these different detours in your life. And honestly, this whole thing that I’m talking about is the reason why, in the naturally conscious community. I created these multiple membership levels.
192
00:43:11.740 –> 00:43:35.839
The multiple membership levels are exactly for the same reason, to be able to explore different parts of yourself, using many different skill sets right in seedling sprouts. You’re going to get a minimum amount of you’re going to get some experiential knowledge right? You get the Mini voyage that allows you to experience this relationship with plants in a way that is about the experience, right?
193
00:43:36.200 –> 00:43:54.419
What it is that you, when you do a meditation with this plant, or you draw with a plant. Then you get the book club. So a little bit of knowledge, but not so much teaching as much as what comes through books, and what you can learn and glean from others. And then how do you integrate that into your own life in the discussions?
194
00:43:54.420 –> 00:43:59.569
And then the writing. You know, the sprouts writing and Creativity group that allows you to then
195
00:43:59.570 –> 00:44:24.480
explore your own expression. Give yourself different ways to process through using creativity all these things. So it’s kind of like the 1st steps of let me feel my way through my multiplicity, and let me invite plants to help me explore my way through this multiplicity, and then blooming sprouts has the next kind of big heavy hitters right reconnect with the plant
196
00:44:24.480 –> 00:44:43.330
kingdom, which is a course, and it has dense with all this amazing information about life and death and about exploration of what it means to be food. When you have a relationship with plants and exploration of what it means to be an individual and yet interrelated. It gives you the whole next level of learning
197
00:44:43.330 –> 00:44:55.419
and experiential integration of it. And then the masterclasses where we start to apply all these things that we’ve learned right, this continuing education of integration into life.
198
00:44:55.570 –> 00:45:02.619
and then flourishing sprouts, which is for people who are working one on one with me, to have the individual
199
00:45:03.150 –> 00:45:31.749
face-to-face one to one safe space, and then a leadership group that allows you to explore this in a safe environment where you can think at a higher level where you can explore at a higher level. So all of these things start to bring together in order to see your life as that ecosystem, to be able to notice and honor your unique combination of talents and experiences.
200
00:45:31.860 –> 00:45:36.180
So to embrace all of your self.
201
00:45:36.320 –> 00:45:41.039
all of what you create and all of what you are, because they’re both
202
00:45:41.570 –> 00:45:45.040
as this source of strength. So
203
00:45:45.700 –> 00:46:00.379
basically, let’s wrap this all up kind of in the spirit of the naturally conscious community by tying it all together and looking at how you can start embracing all of this multi passion itself together. I want to leave you with this simple exercise that you can do
204
00:46:02.090 –> 00:46:19.129
to embrace your full essence. Now I’m going to give you the exercise. Of course you can, at any point, you know. Come back to this. Listen to it on your own experience it on your own, so that you have it so. This is an exercise to plant your full spectrum self.
205
00:46:19.450 –> 00:46:48.739
The purpose of this exercise is to invite you to really honor all these parts of who you are to to really just see that just as nature embraces every role and every element that is in an ecosystem by recognizing and celebrating your own talents and passions. And well, dare I say, quirks right, because that’s part of it, too. You begin to align more fully with your true essence. So here are the instructions. I want you to find a quiet space.
206
00:46:49.050 –> 00:46:53.510
I want you to sit comfortably, and I want you to close your eyes.
207
00:46:54.350 –> 00:46:57.979
And when you find this space and you’re sitting comfortably.
208
00:46:58.490 –> 00:47:24.099
I want you to start taking a few deep breaths to just sort of harmonize. Remember, when we take deep breaths in this work, you call in all of those plant allies, all those plant friends, every every plant that is around you and far away from you, and you start to harmonize your breath with that breath of plants. So you start to really awaken your true nature, your plantness.
209
00:47:24.430 –> 00:47:32.240
your body relaxes, you find yourself present in the moment, and then I want you to visualize a garden.
210
00:47:32.730 –> 00:47:36.010
It could be a garden. It could be a wild space.
211
00:47:36.200 –> 00:47:44.300
I want you to basically imagine yourself in a space around you that has an element that is co-created.
212
00:47:45.000 –> 00:48:06.990
And yet it has space to grow and be wild. So you’re surrounded by all kinds of different plants, tall trees, vibrant flowers, vines, fragrant herbs, like each plant, has their own unique role and energy. And so here you are in this part that has been co-created
213
00:48:06.990 –> 00:48:18.870
with these plants and has space kind of like a food forest or a vibrant permaculture garden has a wildness to it, even though there is co-creation in your hand.
214
00:48:19.750 –> 00:48:32.350
and I want you to then connect to each part of yourself. As you look around this garden, I want you to notice how many different plants represent different parts of you.
215
00:48:33.150 –> 00:48:41.269
A towering tree could represent your grounded, steady qualities that rise to the challenge.
216
00:48:41.550 –> 00:49:05.849
A vine that’s climbing towards the sky could represent your creativity and your adaptability to find a way to hook into spaces that are near you, to find a way for you to even ground when things seem flimsy or when there doesn’t seem to be much at all, and that you continue to move and continue to grow outwards and upwards.
217
00:49:06.230 –> 00:49:21.110
you might see a flower in full bloom that represents you doing something. You really love a passion of yours that is shining in that moment, that is showing its beauty, its essence to the world.
218
00:49:21.480 –> 00:49:23.990
or an herb that is
219
00:49:24.090 –> 00:49:50.489
powerful in its size. It’s taking on and representing that quiet wisdom, that nurturing side that is able to bring such amounts of healing, even if the healing of all types of healings, emotional healing. Or you know that soothing salve, that humble herb that shares so openly with the world.
220
00:49:50.740 –> 00:50:00.079
You might see moss that’s covering a stone that represents your resilience, your ability to grow even in the darkest conditions.
221
00:50:00.190 –> 00:50:11.710
The way for you to soak in water, that wetness. Just look around yourself, and see all the different plants, and see them as mirrors to yourself.
222
00:50:12.520 –> 00:50:23.110
And as you stand in this garden, I want you to honor every part of yourself. Take a moment to reflect on all these different aspects of you.
223
00:50:23.660 –> 00:50:44.620
whether it’s your many talents or your passions, or multiple experiences that you’ve had acknowledge and accept them and bring them into you, and notice what stays with you from them. What do you get out of them? What has transformed, evolved in you from each one of these.
224
00:50:44.650 –> 00:50:57.689
just as nature accepts every aspect of an ecosystem, and has to work with it. You, too, what part of you is great at destroying things. What part of you decays pieces and cleans up messes?
225
00:50:57.920 –> 00:51:14.659
What part of you instead shines and grows? What part of you is a support beam, and a supportive side, which part of you instead is an active creator. Honor all of these different parts, seen through the reflection of all these plants around you.
226
00:51:15.040 –> 00:51:20.449
and then now imagine that you gather up everything that you have just experienced.
227
00:51:20.630 –> 00:51:43.409
and gather it into a seed. This is the seed of your true essence, the seed of who you really are, of your authentic expression as a multi-passionate alternative, neurodivergent person, an individual that is connected and interrelated while still being
228
00:51:43.510 –> 00:51:44.400
you.
229
00:51:44.780 –> 00:51:52.899
and I want you to plant this seed in your garden to represent the full spectrum of who you are.
230
00:51:53.440 –> 00:52:01.380
It could be parts of your career. They could have your creative projects, or simply the essence of just the fact that you’re multifaceted.
231
00:52:01.770 –> 00:52:11.210
I want you to plant this seed, and I want you to commit to nurture this seed inside of this garden, which is you.
232
00:52:11.350 –> 00:52:35.489
your multifaceted environment, your ecosystem that interacts with all of these other beings. That is all of these parts of yourself coming and weaving together your personalities, your abilities, your skills. I want you to call this all in into the seed, and plant it into the ground, and commit
233
00:52:35.580 –> 00:52:42.649
to nourishing with curiosity, with freedom, with exploration.
234
00:52:43.620 –> 00:52:46.170
And then I want you to take a few moments.
235
00:52:46.560 –> 00:52:51.800
and really ground into yourself the image of your seed growing
236
00:52:51.920 –> 00:52:59.130
into a beautiful, diverse, unique plant that represents
237
00:52:59.810 –> 00:53:03.000
so many of your strengths and talents.
238
00:53:03.660 –> 00:53:12.009
and I want you to really feel that plant breaking through the earth coming out and starting to grow.
239
00:53:12.280 –> 00:53:21.160
and that your nourishment of this plant will eventually take it to thrive and flourish.
240
00:53:21.620 –> 00:53:25.780
and carry this connection with you always
241
00:53:30.540 –> 00:53:39.970
in closing. I really hope that, embracing the full spectrum of who you are, that Jack of all trades, and master of the whole.
242
00:53:40.310 –> 00:53:42.150
holds itself with you.
243
00:53:42.490 –> 00:54:05.529
see it as the gift that it is just like in nature, where every element plays its part to create harmony and growth. Your diverse talents and passions are a part of a larger, beautiful ecosystem, that is, you that interacts and connects across to multiple ecosystems when you learn to see them as interconnected and purposeful, everything begins to align.
244
00:54:05.530 –> 00:54:22.939
You don’t need to choose between your passions or fit into someone else’s ideas of what it means to be successful. Instead, you get to define your own path one that flows with natural rhythms of who you truly are, and remember that, just like the plants that thrive by growing in their own unique ways.
245
00:54:23.040 –> 00:54:41.599
your greatest strength lies in honoring the multiplicity within you. Trust yourself. Nourish the seed, this plant that is starting to emerge, experience, and embrace all these different gifts, and let them shape that masterpiece that is your life.
246
00:54:42.360 –> 00:54:47.279
When you do the exercise. Here are some reflection questions for you to ask yourself after.
247
00:54:47.500 –> 00:54:51.729
How did it feel to recognize and honor all parts of yourself?
248
00:54:51.960 –> 00:55:11.939
Are there any aspects of yourself that you’ve been neglecting or undervaluing that you can see reflected in that garden? Because, remember, you can always go back into this garden at any time, and even focus on one plant to see that mirror, and to allow and give space for that plant to grow more, and then you can come and focus on a different one, or, on the whole.
249
00:55:12.340 –> 00:55:18.790
and, more importantly, what’s 1 small action that you can take today to nourish the full spectrum of who you are.
250
00:55:19.430 –> 00:55:35.349
I’m so curious to see what changes in the way you experience your life when you let go of all of these societal expectations, and instead, allow your passions to guide you towards a life that feels truly aligned with who you are that is authentic to you.
251
00:55:35.770 –> 00:56:02.930
