In our complex world, shouldn't we redefine success on our own terms to create dynamic, adaptable, and resilient portfolio lives and careers that align with us, fundamentally?

For too long, we’ve been told to pick a major, choose a career, climb the ladder, get that corner office, work to retire, and repeat.  And if you’re not on this track? Shame on you for not “just figuring it out”. It’s time for the Portfolio Mindset Methodology…

At eight years old, I stumbled into gymnastics and instantly fell in love. At 15, I represented Canada at the Olympics. Was it ambition, drive, or courage that led me to the podium?

Yes to all three, but more than that, it was exploring my limits upside-down that led to my lifelong pursuit of multi-passionate adventures, which include 65+ jobs in 40+ countries thus far.

For anyone pursuing (or thinking about pursuing) a non-linear upside-down life of purpose and passion, here are my life lessons to cartwheel through life with greater clarity, creativity, and confidence.

What if success wasn’t about choosing one path, but designing many?

The days of climbing a single career ladder, sticking to one field, or pursuing a linear path to success are fading quickly. Instead, a new paradigm is emerging—one that embraces variety, adaptability, and purpose-driven exploration.

This is the Portfolio Mindset—a dynamic approach to life and work that empowers individuals, teams, and organizations to thrive through intentional variety.
