Multi-hyphenate.

The term is used so frequently today that you’d be forgiven for thinking it was an old concept, but for our parent’s generation, having multiple careers wasn’t the norm.

Now we’re turning our side hustles into full-time jobs, switching lanes, and pivoting towards our ever-changing passions all at the same time.It’s just like Elizabeth Gilbert’s hummingbird analogy. They move from tree to tree, from flower to flower, from field to field and lead rich, complex lives while cross-pollinating the world.

Not all of us have a singular focus or that “one true calling.” And to be honest, that can be incredibly restrictive and rigid.

So, if you’re not wired that way, then embrace your curiosity instead, wherever it may lead. Because expertise in one domain will help fuel excellence in another. It’s perfectly possible to be good at more than one thing in your life, or to be good at multiple things simultaneously.Just ask Tia Mowry-Hardrict.

She could have made a very comfortable living just being an actor, but instead, she chose to step outside of her “lane” to be an author, a producer, a YouTuber, a mother, and now an entrepreneur with her new company, Anser Supplements. And she’s incredibly successful at all of them!

For this live episode of WorkParty, we sit down with Tia to find out how she followed her curiosity to pursue multiple career paths, why she launched a supplements line, and the many lessons learned along the way.
