ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Have you ever felt like you are meant to be doing something different, but you are not quite sure what? Caitlyn Socwell, Angelica Barrios and Said Fadyl spend this episode on curiosity mapping, a reflection exercise for finding the connections between everything you have ever been drawn to, and using it to figure out where you actually belong.
Angelica introduces the exercise and its five sections: roots, sparks, paths, threads, connections, the door, and edges. Then all three hosts share their own results, including childhood memories, career pivots, and a few ambitions that had been quietly waiting for attention. Along the way they talk about why everyone has the capacity to be a polymath, the difference between a polymath and a generalist, and how following your curiosity can lead you into sustainability work even when you did not plan it that way.
If this episode has you wanting to try it yourself, the group has put together a curiosity mapping resource you can download and work through at your own pace.
