The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Charlotte Petit Noble is an entrepreneurial mother and breastfeeding advocate, originally from France but living in the Los Angeles area for about 15 years.Charlotte's multipotentialite journey includes experiences in marketing, hairstyling and podcasting, before leading to her current focus on supporting breastfeeding mothers through her Instagram and coaching programs, "Breastfeeding by Design." With two young kids of her own now, this latest business idea makes a lot of sense, and helps Charlotte lean into coaching and educating others, something she's passionate about.However, after years of pursuing successful projects, only to see her interests change and motivation wane, will it be any different this time? Charlotte talks about how her perspective on passions, commitments and priorities has itself changed and evolved over the past year or so. That we aren't defined by what we do or how we earn a living, and how our challenge is to recognize when something has run its course, yet giving it enough time and space to do so. Reach out and talk to Charlotte about her breastfeeding courses and guidance, entrepreneurship, and more!Charlotte is offering a discount on her flagship program, The MILK Method, to The MultiPod's audience: 50% off!

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---My friend Ross joins us today to share his remarkable journey, particularly in the past year, of reasserting control over his health and sense of self.The catalyst for these transformative changes: journaling. Ross has been a regular journaler for a few years, but leaning into it more recently has had an immense and positive impact on his health, mindset, and overall life balance. Ross developed his own journaling system, called "North Star Journaling," which gives structure and guidance, without a firm set of inflexible rules. Something perfect for multipotentialites who need to adapt and pivot from time to time.Ross is here today to share the story of those profound changes, almost a new lease on life. It's powerful and inspiring stuff, and if you're feeling in a rut, stuck or otherwise discouraged, Ross' story will give you inspiration and encouragement. We each forge our own path in life, but we can look to the examples of others to help us along the way.When I set about relaunching The MultiPod under its new format, I knew that Ross was the first guest I wanted on the show. We first met three years ago, and immediately I recognized him as a deeply genuine, real and authentic person, who loves connecting with others. A great example therefore as we embark on the new intentionality of this show.Reach out and talk to Ross about journaling, weight loss, health and mindfulness, and more!How to Contact RossRoss is building out new online profiles, under the handle "@RossYVR604", with a particular emphasis on Substack. You can sign up for his newsletter there, which includes an audio version, and contact him directly via Substack, or on one of the other platforms.Ross on:SubstackTikTokInstagramYouTube---Find The MultiPod around the internet!Visit our new website, www.themultipod.com, for more show info, and our entire archive of 111 full episodes, plus bonus episodes and the Everything Conference miniseries.We also have a new guest application form, where you can send in your ideas for topics and who you would like to meet, and we'll set a recording date!Meanwhile, I'll be posting clips and updated on Instagram, @tedcraggpodcastingAnd, The MultiPod now has a sponsor!Quick Edit PodcastsYes, this is my own podcast production business.

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---The MultiPod is back, and we've changed.Discover the new format of our long-running podcast, relaunched with a focus on intention and action.The MultiPod remains a resource for multipotentialites, a place where we explore topics and themes that get to the heart of this identity and lifestyle. And we continue to structure our episodes around the stories, offers and gifts of our people: fascinating folks from all walks of life, from around the world, full of inspiration and relatablility.But, each guest now comes to The MultiPod with a task: What is (at least) one thing that you would like to connect with somebody about?It could be their latest business offer, a new rabbit-hole discovery that they want to learn more about, or a long-standing passion that they love to share with others. Each guest is looking for contact, conversation, feedback and ultimately, connection: the chance to have a meaningful exchange with someone, that goes beyond a like, a share or a sale.That means that for you, the listener, you now have a call to action as well: If there is something you hear from our guests that piques your interest, that you would love to converse with them about, reach out! Send them a message or an email. Follow up and schedule a call. Now you know that they exist; let them know that you're out there too!---Ok, let's move to the 1st person now: I'm excited to bring The MultiPod back with this renewed vigour and intentionality. It's something I've been stewing on for months, and in true multipotentialite fashion, it needed to find its time and place to become reality. Now, the moment feels right and I'm glad to be back underway.I will always be thankful to the Puttyverse and Joel Zaslovsky for the tremendous support and encouragement since we started the podcast in January of 2018. Although The MultiPod now shifts away from the Putty umbrella to become something independent and standalone, there will always be strong links and connections to the community. Just not in a formal way. Thank you to Joel for your support in this new direction.The MultiPod has always intentionally been a team effort, since Day 1, and so it is a strange yet exciting feeling to bring it under a more personalized banner. But my thanks to the many people who have contributed over the past 7+ years: the many guests, guest-hosts, and of course our founding team, Sandrine, Michael and Sara. But particularly, thanks to Vanessa Hennessey who has been the steady and joyful co-host for so many years. Vanessa will still be around I'm sure, we hope to hear your voice again in an episode whenever it works out. You'll always have a chair here behind the microphone.Thanks everyone for listening, and watching.
