Are you holding back from starting your business because you’re afraid to pick the wrong idea?

As a multi-passionate, you have so many passions and skills you could turn into a business already – and a dozen more new shiny ideas popping into your brain every day.

You know you can make money with any of them. You also know, deep down, you’ll likely soon get bored with whatever you pick. 

And that puts so much pressure on you to get it right from the start. You don’t want to invest too much time and money in an idea that you’ll abandon a few months from now.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could tell from the beginning if an idea has no future? I’m no fortune teller, but, from my personal experience and the experience of my clients and friends, I’ve identified some common warning signs that a business idea isn’t right for you.

Today, I’m going to share these 3 warning signs with you, so you too can avoid a costly mistake and put all your efforts, from the very beginning, into building a business that’s aligned with your multi-passionate nature, your passions (plural), and the lifestyle you want to live - oh and that’s profitable, too.

IN THIS EPISODE

• Why monetising a skill you’re great at is bad advice for multi-passionates.
• The one thing your business idea needs to be successful and profitable.
• The best business model for multi-passionates (with examples).
• The business phase everyone wants to skip (and why it’ll sabotage your business if you do).

QUOTES

“Multi-passionates love to learn new skills, but the moment we master them, the moment we know everything there is to know about a subject, the moment it becomes too easy, we get bored and are ready to move onto the next venture.”

“Why would you have so many passions and talents if you were meant to choose only one? Makes no sense. You’re multi-passionate for a reason: you’re meant to use all your treasures to make an impact in the world.”

“Forcing yourself to stick to a niche business will never work long-term. You may get the money and fame, but you’ll always feel like you’re settling, like there’s a lot more you need to be doing with your life - because there is.”

Sarah Hansford has worked in fashion retail for over 25 years, starting as a graduate trainee with Marks and Spencer where she launched the fashion jewellery department and pioneered new packaging concepts and product innovation.

Over the years, she worked for a supplier for leading high fashion retailers, as well as prestigious brands like DKNY, The White Company, and the Arcadia Group, where she was Senior Buyer for accessories, hosiery, and lingerie.

Her most recent role was with QVC, where she gained a wider knowledge of multi-channel retail and an interest in brand management and strategy. She then launched her own fashion consulting agency for sustainable brands, re-Create to share her experience and knowledge of retail.

Do you ever feel like you’re doing this multi-passionate thing wrong?

Everyone else seems to have their life figured out. You? You jump from one idea to the next, always starting from scratch and wondering if you’ll always be the odd one out?

This happens when multi-passionates follow advice that’s designed for specialists, like niching down and trying to monetise every passion you have.

Multi-passionates are wired differently and, when you follow rules that weren’t made for you and try to be someone you’re not, it leads you nowhere. 

You stay stuck in a job or business that you’ve long outgrown, you never reach the financial stability you crave, you never create that life of unlimited freedom that’s been calling to you since you were born. 

In this episode, I’m sharing the most common mistakes every multi-passionate makes. These are the mistakes that keep you stuck in indecision, keep you broke, and they keep you from creating a business that allows you the life of unlimited financial, location, and creative freedom you crave. 

Let’s find out what they are, so you can avoid them and start to finally create your best multi-passionate life.

IN THIS EPISODE

• Mistake 1: Forcing yourself to think and act like a specialist.
• Mistake 2: Wanting to pursue all the things that interest you - right now.
• Mistake 3: Finishing projects like a specialist would.
• Mistake 4: Trying to monetise every passion you have.
• Mistake 5: Doing it all alone.

Do you ever compare yourself to others unfavourably? Maybe you compare yourself to other people in your industry who are getting the opportunities you want to get and you wonder why you’re not there yet? 

Or maybe you see other people living their best lives on Instagram, going on a holiday at the Maldives, wearing designer clothes, selling out high-ticket coaching packages with ease, and you wish that was you?

This form of self-sabotage is called comparisonitis. It’s a compulsion to compare yourself unfavourably to other people - often people you don’t even know. 

Comparisonitis is a waste of time and energy that often kills your business before you even start it. 

In this episode, I share how comparisonitis hurts creative and multi-passionate entrepreneurs and 3 ways you can overcome it, so you can finally create YOUR dream biz, your way:

IN THIS EPISODE

• What comparisonitis is. [01:16]
• How social media promotes comparisonitis and the negative impact it has on your mental health and your business. [02:03]
• How comparisonitis hurts multi-passionate entrepreneurs. [05:07]
• Why focusing on your journey is key in beating comparisonitis. [08:02]
• My secret tool to shift you out of comparisonitis [10:14]
• The only healthy type of comparisonitis that helps you succeed in business and life [11:43]
