Multipotentialite is a term coined by Emilie Wapnick in her viral Ted Talk. The term is used to describe a person who does not have a desire to specialize in one area and, instead, desires to pursue many paths. As someone who identifies with this term, I have decided to write a blog that highlights my many passions/creative pursuits. Thus, like a rabbit’s burrow that has many connected tunnels, this blog explores the many paths of this multipotentialite’s journey through life. I hope this blog will inspire people from all walks of life in whatever stage of life.
