with D’Ana Joi Spencer

I want every multi-passionate creative to know, there’s nothing wrong with you. Do not let everybody else niching down and focusing on one thing make you feel like you’re showing up in a way that’s wrong. You are perfect.
— D'Ana Joi Spencer

We’re often told to find our zone of genius and hone in on one area of expertise, but what if you have more than one creative calling? Can you still be successful with your creative talents when everyone else is niching down?
