Revisiting Travel in Cuba in 2019, with Andy Cragg

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Cuba is one of the many places in the world facing tremendous upheaval in 2026, and as we publish this episode, who knows how things may change even in just the next few weeks. We thus present an interesting snapshot in time for this week's episode, a replay of a conversation in late March of 2019 between Ted and his brother Andy, who had just returned from a multi-week backpacking trip around Cuba with his family. Andy and his wife Laura brought their three kids, aged at the time 6, 3 and 4 months old, to see the real Cuba, be immersed in the culture, and experience life outside the insulated resorts.Ted couldn't help but be curious not just about what life and travel is like in Cuba, but how to explore the island and navigate transportation, accommodation, food, health and all kinds of other logistics (diapers, laundry, strollers, baby supplies and more) with young kids.Andy shares stories of this incredible experience for all of them, shedding a spotlight on the kind, welcoming and resilient people.And now there is an added layer of poignancy, 7 years exactly after that trip, as Cuba and its people are stretched to the limit by world events. There is nowhere else quite like it, and this snapshot from just a few years ago really makes you think about what it must be like on the ground there now.The MultiPod is blessed with an archive of years of episodes, dating back to 2018, so from time to time we'll revisit stories from old friends, and if we're lucky maybe have a current update from them too!---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.

We Have So Much Inside Us: Our Own Answers and Truths. With Kati Tempesta

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---This week we reconnect with an old friend, Kati Tempesta, joining us live from near Melbourne, Australia, and making a return appearance to The MultiPod! Our first conversation on the podcast took place in July of 2021, where we learned about Kati's back story, languages, community, food and family. It was a wonderful introduction, and you can revisit it here: A Celebration of Perseverance and the Puttyverse, with Kati - The MultiPod 081.Now, Kati has written a book, which is being released this week! Whispers of the Soul is an "Invitation to self-discovery," a companion on your journey towards clarity, inner peace, learning more about who you are and embracing your own inner strengths.The book is a combination of exercises, prompts, personal reflections and anecdotes from Kati, all with a goal of helping people become more grounded, calm, thriving, and better able to tune out the external distractions and pressures that consume us more and more.To that end, it is a very well-timed book, and for multipotentialites, you have a soulful ally in Kati, who has thrived deeply thanks to communities and connections, particularly the Puttyverse, where we first met.Whispers of the Soul explores what is contentment, happiness, compassion and companionship, framed through a lens of something to which multipotentialites can relate: feeling safe, realizing you're not alone, drawing strength from the journey and from the experiences of others.We have so much inside of us, to continue exploring, and Kati and her book are wonderful companions, reminding you of the things you already possess!Learn More About Kati:Get the book!

Dance Walk Your Way Through Change, Adventure and Community, with Paul Petrosky

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Paul (Paulie) Petrosky makes his long-awaited debut on The MultiPod to shine a light on his journey navigating multipotentiality, and avoiding, for as long as he can remember, having to fit into that one path or identity.Especially when there are just so many things to do!Most recently, this navigation took him from his home in Austin, Texas to the other side of the world, spending five months between Australia and New Zealand. How did he find five months to spend down under? He quit his job. Packed away all his stuff. Threw some gear in a backpack and off he went.The trip helped rekindle perspective on time, commitment, joy and community, and as he's returned Stateside, he's relaunched himself into one of his deepest passions: dance walk!More than just having fun listening to music and dancing, dance walk is something much deeper. It brings people together, out of their homes, away from their screens, combatting solitude and the epidemic of loneliness. It's a shared experience of joy and positivity, in a time of deep division and isolation.So, Paul is here to tell us all about it, plus of course lots of other things: house/petsitting (something he's done for over a decade), virtual assistance, audio and video editing, travel, music, entrepreneurship, time management and oh - a teaser for a brand new podcast that's coming out soon!Reach out to Paul and jump into the music video that is his life :)Learn More About Paul:What is Dance Walk?

Safety vs. Stepping Into the Unknown, with Dawn Wilson

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---"I was stuffed in the box, but the box couldn't contain me."Dawn Wilson has always known she's a multipotentialite, pretty much from day one: "I'm not a pick-a-lane kind of person."She has navigated a career as an ESL teacher, something that is a great option for multipods, with all the variety and opportunity therein.But she joins us today to talk about getting out of that life, because: it's time.Dawn is building a coaching business, Our Sacred Wild, which guides people towards a path of self-awareness and spiritual growth. Whatever spirituality means to you, her process supports you in living in alignment with the truth of who you are, and from there, transformation, peace, health, wellness and abundance.That's the ethos of it, but then there's also the practical, nuts & bolts side of it. How does one get to the point, not just financially but psychologically, to where they can leave a job and an old life behind, and commit to something new? To go from employee to entrepreneur?Our conversation today revolves around this question, from the particularly meta perspective of someone who is in essence living what they teach. Is that a prerequisite? Not necessarily, but it certainly makes things that much more interesting!How to Contact Dawn:Website: www.oursacredwild.comContact: osacredwild [at] gmail.comYouTube: @projectliberate621Facebook: www.facebook.com/jottful---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.

Insights on Writing for Neurodivergent Multipotentialites, with Céol

Céol is an international writer, currently working on two projects: a dystopian novel and a utopian novel, worlds where autistic and neurodivergent people feel welcome. Do these two novels intersect and play off of each other? That's just one of the areas we explore in our conversation today. Céol and I chat about the nature and mindset of writing, is it a struggle, is it a joy, could it be both, and maybe even at the same time?!Our conversation focuses on writing for neurodivergent multipotentialites, and Céol shares their different approach to deadlines and coworking, not to mention how to approach publishing. There's even a touch of sewing thrown in for context!A novel is typically a pretty mammoth task, something that can take many months or years to complete. This is not so much an episode for the NaNoWriMo crowd - neurodivergent multipotentialite authors may want to set their own pace instead. And Céol helps guide us through some good activities and techniques."Thinking about your novel is writing your novel, and you should think about it as such."How to Contact Céol:Write to Céol, share your feedback and insight, and maybe even discuss collaboration - ceol-u [at] proton.me---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.

You Have Permission to Bring Your Travel Memories Back to Life, with Melissa Rodway

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---If you love to reminisce about your travels, or if you're like me and kind of hesitant to do so - a little wary of living too much in the past - my guest this week will unlock that permission and take you right back to your memories.Melissa Rodway is the author of The People You Meet: Luxury, Leeches, Love, and Lao-Lao with a Host of Interesting Characters in Southeast Asia, her memoir about a four month (largely) backpacking trip back in 2010. The trip was in fact a combination of mostly doing the backpacker circuit, but interspersed from time to time with free stays at luxury hotels and resorts, as her partner at the time was on a research trip to scope out potential clients for his travel company. Thus the stories are a mixture of roughing it with spiders and squat toilets before ending up the next day at a private island, boat access-only, 5-star resort.What I found really inspiring though is the feeling that it's not too late to reminisce, to share stories from past travels and to revisit a point in time in your life. For so long, I've felt like I missed the boat, it was too late, and no one would care about travel stories that were almost 15 years ago and likely grossly out of date.But think about the last time you read a memoir, autobiography or certainly a travel journal that may have been written by someone decades ago, or about a point in time long in the past. If the storytelling is vivid and engaging, and especially if you have your own connection to the subject (such as the people, the places, the themes involved), it still has value. Multipotentialites tend to struggle with this, but take it from Melissa, a fellow multipod and someone who herself debated revisiting the past: it's not too late, it's worth it and you have permission!Discover The People You Meet: Luxury, Leeches, Love, and Lao-Lao with a Host of Interesting Characters in Southeast Asia and grab a copy here! flyrodway.com/my-travel-stories How to Contact Melissa:Website: flyrodway.comPodcast: The Fly Travel Radio Podcast Contact: flytravelmedia [at] gmail.comInstagram:@fly_travel_mediaYouTube: @flytravelradio2048 ---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.

From Flight Attendant to Autism Advocate, with Tabitha Zeigler

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---You may have been seeing Tabitha Zeigler pop up a lot lately, and there's a good reason for that: Tabitha is a remarkably driven, engaging advocate who, unsurprisingly, is also a classic multipotentialite.Today we trace her journey and life story, from pursuing education, learning French, and considering the military, before stumbling into the field she would end up working in for 17 years: a flight attendant in the airline industry.There must be few jobs better suited to multipotentialites than this one: it inherently attracts worldly, curious and spontaneous people, frequently very well-educated, multilingual and anti-specialist, who seek adventure and variety. Thus, the perfect home for Tabitha through her 20's and 30's.But, as time time marched on, and biological clocks continued to tick, Tabitha knew she wanted children. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, this meant going down the path of sperm donation and artificial insemination. So our conversation quickly pivots to learning the ins and outs of how this process works, and it is fascinating. At once both heavily emotional and very transactional, Tabitha certainly became an expert, going through it twice, and ending up with three kids, the younger two being twins.And then, all three were diagnosed with autism. Which in turn led to Tabitha herself learning she was autistic. And in the face of all the inherent challenges therein, compounded by the current political atmosphere, Tabitha found herself with a new calling: advocacy.As an aside - Tabitha and I produced a miniseries documentary in late 2024 that expands on her story as a single parent of three young kids, all with autism, and her journey into advocacy.Since then, we've launched her podcast: "Staring Down the Storm: Autism Advocacy in America." The podcast raises awareness and fosters connections within the autism advocacy space, highlighting the significance of community support, inclusivity, and the power of personal storytelling in driving change.Watch Staring Down the Storm podcast on YouTube, or listen in your favourite podcast app!

From Flight Paths to Life Paths, with Ellerie Fuller

The MultiPod is also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Ellerie Fuller joins me today, a multipotentialite who loves variety and curiosity, and yet was able to spend 20 years in the US Air Force as an airplane mechanic! Fortunately, it was a job/career with enough twists and turns to keep her engaged, on her toes and ever-learning. Ellerie shares her experiences in the Air Force, including her roles in aircraft engineering, quality assurance, and leadership. She discusses the challenges and opportunities that arose from her diverse career and her journey into mentorship and coaching, specifically for female veterans, as they transition out of the structured parameters of military life and into the civilian beyond. With this in mind, Ellerie has founded Courageous Whisper Coaching, to help female veterans adjust smoothly into their next life chapters. We talk about why mentorship is so important, how multipotentiality is always bubbling under the surface, and also about the various projects Ellerie has undertaken post-military, including her hospitality business.Reach out to Ellerie to say hello, introduce yourself and learn more about her offers, and in particular: pass the word on to someone who fits her target client, and whom she might be able to help with her coaching!How to Contact Ellerie:Contact: courageouswhisper [at] gmail.comInstagram:@courageouswhisperLinkedIn: @ellerie-l-fuller---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.

Come Travel With the Curious Traveler! with John McKenzie

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Friend of the show and someone well-known to many of our listeners and viewers, John McKenzie drops by today to share some travel stories from a remarkable year of travel, even by his standards.In the past 12 months he's flown over Mosi-oa-Tunya (Victoria Falls), toured post-Assad Syria, done a Scandinavian circuit, added his 75th new country visited (Ireland), and still had time for lots of domestic travel around the United States, visiting family & friends. In fact, John and I saw each other for a fifth time in person this past June, at Camp Indie.Oh, and he's organized and hosted the first two CuriosiTrips: his original approach to group travel, spontaneity and multipotentiality.CuriosiTrips combine the best of group travel: shared experiences, guided information and stories, logistical details and safety & security, with the freedom to still explore on your own and follow your nose.Itineraries are loosely structured to allow for both curated experiences and spontaneous activities, for which you're welcome to include other members of the group, but there's no obligation or pressure to do so.If you're keen to visit a place for the first time but want a bit more structure in doing so, or if you've been to a certain place but want to see it from a different perspective, CuriosiTrips are a great option.The first trip took place in January of 2025 in Mexico City, and the second in May, in Washington, DC. Now, John is heading back to CDMX to revisit a few familiar sights, discover new ones, and take another group of curious travelers with him!The dates are January 15-20, 2026. Lots of information on how it works, what's included, how to plan and prepare and more, are included on the excellent page here: johnthetraveler.com/curiositrip-mexico-city-2026/MultiPod listeners and viewers!

Unlock the Power of Pulls: A Guide to Your ADHD Superpower, with Dr. Matt Jarman

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---How do we explain that feeling that pulls us towards doing a certain thing, or that in turn steers us away from doing other things? What makes us actually want to do something, that creates that desire, or pull?Dr. Matt Jarman is here to discuss that very question, the intriguing concept of 'pulls' - that draw individuals towards certain activities, particularly in the context of ADHD and multipotentiality. To then take it a step further, Matt has developed tools and systems to actually enhance productivity and satisfaction in your day to day life, despite, or maybe thanks to, your ADHD. https://productiveforgood.org/adhd-programs-overview/Matt is trained in organizational psychology, with a focus on productivity. His coaching revolves around four key factors that drive productivity: your mind, your tasks, your time and your pulls. It's this last one that may really speak to multipotentialites, since it's about what we feel drawn to pursue, why we feel that way but then how we can learn to "manage our mind" to find an effective and productive balance.If all this sounds fascinating and encouraging, you're in luck! We have a great conversation about how to turn your ADHD, multipotentiality, or whatever label you prefer into your own superpower - for a fulfilling life that is built around the strengths of your brain.How to Contact Dr. MattWebsite: productiveforgood.orgContact: support [at] productiveforgood.orgTake the free productivity self-assessment!---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.

How to Achieve Career Belonging in a Workforce Obsessed with Fit, with Dr. Sarabeth Berk Bickerton

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---My guest today is Dr. Sarabeth Berk Bickerton, the author of, and you're gonna love this name: More Than My Title: The Power of Hybrid Professionals in a Workforce of Experts and Generalists.Doesn't that just speak directly to multipotentialites? Of course you're more than your title, that's the nature of who we are and how we identify ourselves! How do we want to be identified in our work and life, and who gets to determine that? Who gets to choose what title we're known by? It would seem obvious that it should be up to us, but it's not always easy to navigate that, nor to find the confidence and even the permission to say, "Well, I'm more than my title.

How to Sustain Your New Passion in the Long Term, with Charlie Biluck

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Charlie Biluck is someone who was never quite sure what he wanted to do for a career. Of course, he had lots of different interests coming out of high school and into college, tried some different things, and has been in his current job for the past 9 years. Ultimately though, while he doesn't mind his current job, he's certainly yearning for a change.So over the last couple years or so, really just out of curiosity, Charlie dove into genealogy research and discovered a newfound passion. He decided to combine this passion with his love for travel and to start a new business. Called "Ancestral Wanderlust, his idea is to offer unique tours where people can visit the homeland of their ancestors.However, Charlie is now at that classic multipotentialite stage. He's wondering whether he can sustain his interest in this project and make the commitment required for it to be successful. So in today's episode, we learn about Charlie's story and what's brought him to this point. He's made a lot of progress., put in a lot of time and work, gone through some burnout and found some new focus. He's excited, and still believes in the project, in fact it's going stronger than ever: the first tour to Ireland is planned for May, 2026.But now we're at that point of what does the future hold, and we're not just talking four or five years from now. For a multipotentialite, it can be a pretty short window to when that switch flips between, "I'm really excited and passionate about this new thing," and, "Oh, I've put all this time/work/money into it and now I don't know if I still want to do it."It's something that I know most, if not all of us can sympathize with in some shape or form.So it's a big part of what we're going to chat about here today, as we explore multipotentiality with Charlie.How to Contact Charlie and Ancestral WanderlustWebsite: ancestralwanderlust.comEmail: info at ancestralwanderlust.comInstagram: @ancestralwanderlust---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.

Embracing Variety and Living Curiously, with Nicole Parker

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---In the search for stability, yet the need for variety, multipotentialites often hit a crossroads. How to maintain a life open to discovery and curiosity, while providing for yourself and often, a family. And have you ever just gotten "tired of not knowing what was next"? My guest today hit that obstacle a few years back, another turning point that often confronts multipotentialites. My friend Nicole was visiting for a couple days recently, and knowing at least part of her fascinating career path, I had always considered her a classic multipotentialite, whether she knew it or not!So what better place than at home and in person to share with you her story of pursuing interests, following spontaneous opportunities and making multiple 90° turns, fundamentally in pursuit of what was curious, exciting and meaningful. Nicole has studied International Development and Spanish, taught English in Japan and learned Japanese, worked in multiple countries in Africa doing aid and development work for Médecins Sans Frontiers, worked on political campaigns, had a stint as assistant to the leader of the Green Party of Canada, worked on organic farms, done countless volunteer projects, all over the space of roughly 15 years, before hitting that crossroads and turning back to one of her first loves (and plans): completing a teaching degree and working with young kids. Nicole is now a kindergarten teacher, and as you'll here near the end of our conversation, she has a real-time revelation that this might all along have been the job that gives her the balance of curiosity, stability yet variety that she craves. Join us for this conversation that is a celebration of being insatiably curious. Meanwhile, as her many interests have also led to a rather significant accumulation of "stuff," Nicole has gotten on to a declutterring group born from the blog "A Slob Comes Clean", by Dana K. White. There's a podcast as well, and a private Facebook group that Nicole very much vouches in favour of. In the spirit of connection and finding new ideas and information, this could be another opportunity for anyone keen to simplify and perhaps tidy things up a bit. Check it out through the links below, and if you join you'll see Nicole in there too!Links From Today's Episode:A Slob Comes Clean, by Dana K.

Learning About Multipotentiality and Nurturing Your Relationship, with Patty Calbay and Steve Pope

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Steve Pope and Patty Calbay are new to the concept of multipotentiality, but like so many of our guests, once they learn about it, it really hits home.So we thought we'd have some fun in this episode, in the first part of our conversation, and go over multipotentiality to see how they react to the idea. It's like the pulling back of a curtain in real time. Both Steve and Patty have craved variety, new projects and change, and have gone through the usual ringer of confronting things that they "should" be doing. But they share how being open to various interests has shaped their lives, and even led to them finding each other in the first place.(This is a very anti-should episode.)So we then pivot to how multipotentiality nurtures their relationship. Patty & Steve have a wonderful love story that they very much use to inspire other couples to rediscover and maintain the joy in their own relationships.Their approach is through creative date ideas and intentional communication, "Turning the mundane into the fundane." Do you want to recapture the excitement of those early days of dating? Create excitement out of every day tasks like grocery shopping and cooking? These are the relationship coaches for you.Patty & Steve have a 6 week couples coaching program, the "Reignite Us" program, that "helps couples rediscover the joy, spontaneity, & playfulness that make every day feel like the honeymoon phase." The coaching combines Steve's analytical, engineering background with Patty's training as a mental health therapist.Geared primarily towards couples generally 5+ years into their relationship, it's a great way to throw off the shackles of routine and repetition through simple, fun activities.How to Contact Steve & PattyFind the exclusive Spark Guide here!Learn more about the Reignite Us programInstagram (@TheLoveLifters)Facebook (@TheLoveLifters)Send an email: thelovelifters at gmail.com---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.

Exploring the Emotion Behind Accomplishment, with Apryl Schlueter

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Apryl Schlueter joins me this week to chat about her journey as a multipotentialite, her fascination with productivity and accomplishment, and her new podcast! It's called The Accomplishment Project, and the promo trailer is out now. If you are catching up on this episode at a later date, you'll likely see a few new episodes as well.This is a topic that extends nicely from the conversation last time with Becca, which revolved around the question of "completion" - Are multipotentialites guided by the normalized concept of completion, in the sense of, "When you start something, you should finish it"?Today's conversation appears similar, but as Apryl points out, "accomplishment" is a much more nuanced, and ultimately, emotional experience. We feel different about accomplishing something, a feeling that may have little to do with actually completing said project or task. It's as much about the journey, and the experience of pursuing an idea. Now, "completion" may still be integral to the activity, however you want to define it, but "accomplishment" may be different perspective. "I completed my degree," versus, "I accomplished the learning and self-growth that I was looking for."Apryl is an expert on this, having devoted many of the past years to researching and understanding it, as part of her coaching and community leadership. Of course, as a true multipotentialite, that followed on from studying engineering, working in IT, being a high school math teacher, working in administration and finance, and becoming an entrepreneur, not to mention a busy mom of two teenage boys. Like many of our guests, she is set up on Substack, so reach out to her there, find her on YouTube at The Cheerful Mind, and if you want to go deeper, you can contribute to The Accomplishment Project by filling out the Contribute to the Project form on the website.Apryl is gathering data and stories regarding accomplishment, productivity, mindset, and what it takes to actually get stuff done. You don’t have to know exactly how you want to contribute - just share what excites you most right now!How to Contact AprylThe Accomplishment Project, Apryl on SubstackThe Cheerful Mind, Apryl's YouTube channelThe Cheerful Mind on InstagramThe Accomplishment Project podcastContribute to the ProjectSend an email: apryl at thecheerfulmind.com ---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.

What Does "Completion" Mean to Multipotentialites? with Becca Campbell

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---"I haven't lived a less-full life because I don't complete every single thing I start."Last month I was fortunate to be able to attend Camp Indie, for the fourth time!, to meet lots of new folks, to meet people in person for the first time, and of course to see old friends again as well.One of those is Becca Campbell, who I've now seen three times in the past year! Becca was at Camp in 2024, then the Everything Conference, and here we are in the same time and place again in 2025. Result: We're not missing this chance to record a podcast episode together, in person. It's one of those moments where we go in not necessarily knowing what we want to chat about, or what the outcome or objective will be, but simply doing something because we can. Fortunately, I've been putting together a spreadsheet of topics and discussion ideas that are of particular pertinence to multipotentialites, to help steer conversations in a certain direction. You can find said spreadsheet here, and I'm sure it will give you some inspiration for what you'd like to talk about when you come on the show😉 Becca and I zeroed in on this question of "completion." What does that concept mean to multipotentialites? How are different projects and interests approached, maintained, and sometimes left unfinished? How do we feel about that? Are we guided by the normalized concept of completion in the sense of, "when you start something, you should finish it"?I think it's pretty easy to say the answer to that is, "no," but of course it can't be that simple. Multipods still struggle with starting things, finishing things, circling back to things, and trying to make sense of it all, particularly with how we feel about all that. There's a balance required between perseverance and letting go that is of a prescient nature to us.Becca shares her personal experiences and perspectives on balancing various interests, her ongoing writing projects, and the concept of 'completion' in her life. I found it particularly poignant learning about her experience in completing college and how that process shaped her, and then more recently, her approach to writing a book about traveling with a neurodivergent family. These experiences highlight the importance of giving oneself space to grow and revisit projects.Becca is active on Substack, and to connect with her, follow her projects and explore these ideas and more, it's the best place to go. That makes a few guests already who are set up on this platform (don't forget to check out Ross and Eric as well), so there may be something to Substack that works for multipotentialites!How to Contact BeccaBecca on SubstackComing soon: BLC Travels on SubstackSend an email: (matchingsweaters at gmail.com)---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.

What It's Like to Emerge From a Cult, with Gerette Buglion

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Our guest today shares her experience of being 18 years in a cult, and finally getting out of it, which has led her to helping others escape and recover as well. Gerette Buglion is the founder of "Living Cult-Free," a non-profit organization that helps survivors and those close to them emerge from the experience of being in a cult.She also hosts a podcast of the same name, and the producer of that podcast happens to be our own Vanessa Hennessey! Vanessa joins us as well to talk about her perspective putting stories together for the podcast, and making sure they are told in an honest, authentic and delicate way.Cults are something far more common than you might think, and they take on all shapes and sizes. It's not just your stereotypical 'retreat from society, eat and dress the same way, follow the leader' stuff. Most cults in fact don't realize they are one. As you can imagine, it's very subversive. But Gerette has a very succinct and profound way of describing it: "A cult, or any authoritarian system, is based around the concept that they know and understand you better than you know yourself." They, or typically the leader, think you should trust them more than you trust yourself. And that marks the difference between a cult and a genuinely positive, healthy and empathetic group or individual: in a cult, the leader is looking out for their own interests and gain, typically money and power. In a healthy and supportive system, if there even is a leader, they are helping you on your journey of personal growth and understanding, with no personal gain to themselves beyond being happy for you.It's a fascinating topic that we just start to scratch the surface of, but of course there is the podcast where you can learn much more, and hear some profound personal stories. So check out Living Cult Free, the podcast, and if this is a topic that particularly speaks to you, be sure to reach out to Gerette, she would love to have that conversation.How to Contact Gerettegerettebuglion.com - Gerette's website.

Tell the Story Behind the Thing you Cherish, with Martie McNabb

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Martie McNabb is my guest today, someone whom i think a lot of our viewers and listeners know, and not just virtually but in person!Martie is great at getting out to some of the big events over the years that bring people together, including Camp Indie and the Everything Conference of 2024. I was fortunate to see her at both, and then we even met up again about three weeks after the everything conference on her way back to Vermont from a conference in Montreal.I love when things work out and people can make a detour for a visit, something I always try to do too if I'm travelling.And connection, community and sharing is the theme of our conversation today. Martie has developed this wonderful idea of people sharing quick, heartfelt stories based around an item of personal significance, often from a loved one or from a poignant memory. It's called Show and Tale, and Martie uses it to bring people together for anything from team-building events to family reunions or break-the-ice workshops. Ideally it's done in person, but virtually is an option too, and to that end Show and Tale has a counterpart in Martie's fabulous podcast, "Things that Matter."Things that Matter is more of a one on one conversation, podcast-style, but again with that focus on sharing the stories and memories behind an object. Remember in the days before digital? Letters in the mail, printed photographs, pen and notebook, ticket stubs and physical maps - Show and Tale takes us back to that emphasis on real, tactile things that we can hold in our hand, that have a scent and texture, and that in turn remind us of a person, a place or an experience.It's a really neat idea. Martie tells us all about it here today, and go check out Things That Matter on YouTube or your favourite podcast app to hear more great stories and inspiration.How to Contact MartieThings That Matter podcastShow and Tales YouTube channelShow and Tale websiteSend an email: (info at showandtales.com)Martie on:Instagram (@showandtales)Facebook (@martie.mcnabb)LinkedIn (@martiemcnabb)---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.

When Letting Go leads to Magnificent Adventures, with Eric Larson

The MultiPod is now also on video! You can watch today's episode on YouTube here.---Your kids are getting older, moved out or soon to do so, you're divorced and setting up a new life with a new partner. Moving across the continent, and to a new country, no less. You're entering a phase of life full of opportunity, flexibility, change, excitement and a pile of unknowns. So many options for a multipotentialite! Where to begin?Eric Larson's answer is to follow his heart, his instinct and his nose. He embarked a year ago on a journey without many definitive objectives or benchmarks, an entirely new season of life with different commitments and responsibilities. For someone so used to caregiving and community, it's a particularly big change. But Eric is embracing it with calm perspective and an open mind. Eric quotes Brené Brown in referring to, as opposed to a "crisis," a "midlife unraveling" - a time for undoing many of the things that defined the most recent phase of life, and building something new. It's just that in his case, he's not exactly sure where it will lead him, and what the journey will be like. He's keeping an open mind, not focusing on specific goals, and concentrating on just being in the moment.Eric's new life in Montréal, Québec is all about sharing observations and forging new connections, in a new language and culture as well. We chat about Québécois French and honouring a language, and how he copes with isolation and distance, while slowly easing into his partner Dan's life and her family.If you are in a similar phase in life, particularly with kids moving on and a massive change in routine and responsibility; or if you've experienced this already, or can see it coming in the near future: reach out to Eric with your thoughts and perspectives. He would love to hear from you, and compare notes. In particular, subscribe to his Substack newsletter, "The Rogue Learner," and watch the journey unfold!How to Contact EricEric on:Substack (@theroguelearner)LinkedIn (@efslarson)---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.
