Episode notes

We don't have to get to 62 or 65 in the tire and then idle for the 20 minutes before, or 20 years before we die. So wherever we are, especially again, i keep coming back to three to five years,. And if you're running short on decades, maybe your best explorations are not going to be ideas, but relationships. Love that. Aithe, it's a good place for us to wrap up to day. Charley, thank you so much, as always. Hild e, thanks for the great question and set up. Jonathan fields: I hope you gaining value from these conversations and questions.

Every week on the SPARKED podcast, we invite a listener to share what’s going on in their work & life, then pose a specific question to Jonathan Fields and a rotating lineup of wise and kind mentors - the SPARKED Braintrust.

In today’s episode we’re in conversation with:

SPARKED BRAINTRUST ADVISOR: Charlie Gilkey | Website

LISTENER: Hilde - Sparketype: Advisor/Sage, Anti: Maker & Essentialist

QUESTION: Listener, Hilde, asks an interesting question that we know a lot of multi-passionate folks ask themselves, do you have to choose one area to focus on or specialize in? Hilde shares her experience of taking the leap into coaching and entrepreneurship and it not going as smoothly as she’d hoped. Now back in the corporate space and bolstered by the leadership feedback loop, she’s plotting her next move. Hilde poses the query, if you’re marketing yourself as a coach or mentor, do you need to have a niche or a special area of interest? Or can you embrace the multi-passionate approach.

YOUR HOST: Jonathan Fields
