Über diesen Titel

This is a podcast for and by Renaissance People (and people who want to cultivate a Renaissance mindset). Renaissance People are complex people with interests and expertise in a wide variety of realms. Referred to with many terms (including multipotentialites, generalists, multi-hyphenates, Jack/Jill-of-all-trades, versatilists, and boundary spanners), we reject the singular niche and embrace a bramble of knowledge, both deep and wide. We have an insatiable love of learning for the sake of learning. We deeply believe that serendipitous opportunities to apply or share that knowledge will arise. We plant seeds of concepts and cross-pollinate ideas everywhere we go because we never know where an idea might blossom or inspire someone else. We connect the dots and see commonality in unique ways others cannot because of our diverse experiences. In collaboration with invited guests, host Sara Kobilka (Renaissance Woman) will explore: - What it means to be a Renaissance Person in the modern world - How and where we can thrive - What inspires us We'll also flex our creative minds with fun challenges. Think of it as part captivating interview, part game show and part improv performance. This podcast is part of Sara's effort to build a Renaissance People Community which she invites listeners to join at renwomanconsulting.com/renaissance-people-communityRenaissance Woman Consulting, LLC Management & Leadership Persönliche Entwicklung Persönlicher Erfolg Philosophie Sozialwissenschaften Ökonomie
  • Pitching Your Own (Ph)uture With Stephanie Castillo, Jill-of-all-trades

    This week’s guest is the third person on this show from the realm of science communication (if you include me). Stephanie Castillo is a Jill-of-all-trades multimedia producer who creates science videos for YouTube. But the path to get here wasn’t easy. We discuss how she overcame her academic adversity to successfully pitch her own interdisciplinary PhD. We talk about our lives as lifelong learners, full of curiosity and a desire to do everything (and the importance of supportive parents for this lifestyle). Common themes from past episodes, include crossing boundaries, identity work, neurodivergence as well as our roles as dot connectors, arose as well.
