This book is for anyone who thought something was wrong with them for being many things, a deep generalist, a multipotentialite, a person who defied specialization. It puzzled me for so long why people couldn’t put me in boxes and questioned my non-linear liberal arts path.

I hope as we see more research and examples of why generalists with range are additive in a society obsessed with silos and specialization that we can normalize multi-faceted people with random lived experiences converging in magical creations in art, science, tech, policy etc.

This resume seems random and job-hopping but this is the founder of Honey Ryan Hudson who sold his company for $4B.

Steve Jobs took a calligraphy class at Reed College and that informed how he thought about typeface for the first Macintosh.

Let’s hope for a new future that embraces the sum of our differences and celebrates nontraditional paths!
