This was such a powerful conversation between Crystal and myself. These conversations have quickly become the highlight of my business. The lovely Crystal speaks about her voxer coaching services in this video, which are a great option for busy multi-passionate people who do not have the time or energy to get dressed and camera ready for a coaching session. Look into it HERE.
Here are a few highlight from our conversation…
When Awareness Meets Acceptance
Crystal’s story is one of awareness unfolding into acceptance.
After years in marketing and a later-in-life ADHD realization, she began studying her energy patterns. She took note of the moments she felt most creative, most focused, most alive.
“I started time-logging myself for a week,” she said.
“That’s when I discovered my core hours. When my energy is high, that’s when I create. When it dips, that’s when I rest.”
Instead of forcing her life into someone else’s system, she built one that honored her brain. She learned that capacity isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters in a way that honors who you are.

When during your day do you feel most creative or energized?
Where are you forcing yourself to function in a way that doesn’t fit how you actually work?
What would it look like to build your systems around your energy, not against it?

The Myth of “Too Much”
Crystal and I laughed (and nearly cried) over being called “too much.”
Too many ideas. Too many passions. Too many pivots.
But multi-passionate doesn’t mean scattered, it means ALIVE, vibrant, and free-flowing. It means honoring the mosaic of who you are, not slicing yourself into parts that make other people comfortable.
“I help multi-passionate people shape their ideas into something undeniable—without sacrificing their wellbeing,” she said.
That sentence stopped me. Because that’s the real work.
To build in a way that doesn’t break us.
To sustain the creative spark without burning down our peace.

What parts of yourself have you hidden to seem “manageable” to others?
What does being multi-passionate look like in your life right now?
How can you begin to protect your joy and wellbeing while you build?

The Red Dot: No More Hiding
If you’ve seen me use the red dot 🔴 across my work, you know it’s more than a brand mark.
It’s my declaration.
I used to hide behind black clothes, busyness, fear of being seen. I hid because of fear of judgement and rejection.
Stacy London is one of my style icons and watching her on What Not to Wear, I realized red symbolizes confidence, presence, visibility. I decided I would no longer hide from my own brilliance.
So I placed a red dot over the “i” in the word SHIFT, a reminder that every pause, every pivot, every shift toward alignment is a choice to be seen as your full authentic self.
🔴 Reflection Prompts
Where have you been hiding parts of your light or voice?
What color—or symbol—represents your re-emergence?
How might you honor your capacity this week by being seen in one small way?
