Embrace Your Multi-Talents

Do you resonate with the phrase, "I am multitalented"?


Omowunmi Akingbohungbe

The reality is that women possess a wealth of talents and interests, which can sometimes feel overwhelming.


Many of us are skilled in multiple areas, yet we often find it challenging to decide which direction to take. Additionally, societal expectations can hold us back from fully exploring our abilities.


We might hear comments like, “What’s your main focus? Only you…banker, dog groomer, charity worker, trainer, trader, author? A jack of all trades?”


YES!


  • So is Ibukun Awosika – Businesswoman, author, founder, corporate executive, actor, motivational speaker etc.


  • So is Yewande Zaccheaus – Lawyer, banker, event manager, consulting, non-executive director, founder, fashion etc.



The list goes on and on….you can add to the list.


The pressure to narrow down our talents can be intimidating, causing us to second-guess our decisions and stifle our creativity.


It’s crucial to understand that our talents deserve an outlet, whether that’s through a business venture or simply a rewarding hobby.

Failing to express our gifts can lead to lingering "what ifs," resulting in frustration and a sense of unfulfillment. By allowing ourselves to pursue our passions, we not only enhance our own lives but also spread joy to those around us.


If you find yourself conflicted about your abilities, remember that there’s no singular way to showcase them. Give yourself the freedom to explore, to experiment, and to enjoy what you love without the pressure of making it a career.


Concentrate on the happiness it brings you and the positive influence it can have on others.


As you journey through your unique talents, keep this thought in mind:


Your gifts are meant to be shared; they are for the benefit of others. Share them generously, and you may uncover your true calling.

Celebrate your diverse talents, and let them lead you to joy and fulfillment.
