Have you ever felt like your career path was too narrow and limited your potential to explore your passions? 

We often get pigeonholed into some form of identity, that may be great in the beginning but probably restricts us from creating the life we actually want down the track.


Well our guest today, Christina Wallace, is here to challenge that notion with her concept of the portfolio life - a way of future-proofing your career and building a life that's bigger than your business card. 


Christina is a renowned entrepreneur, writer, and educator who teaches entrepreneurship classes and bootcamps at Harvard Business School. Her unique perspective will open up some really interesting ideas on how you can build a wildly successful and fulfilling life without compromising health, enjoyment and your passions.


We cover:


  • What are some of the biggest limiting beliefs in young people joining her courses at Harvard
  • How being a generalist today is a superpower
  • How to blend all your passions into your own unique purpose
  • The idea of self complexity, and how we can use our identity to work FOR us not against us. 
  • How can we start to rewire our brains to overcome these.
  • How do you balance pursuing your passions with day to day worries like financial stability and security
  • The process of building and rebalancing your portfolio life
  • Escaping the rat race (if that’s what you want) by Moonlighting & Zigzagging 
  • The human advantage to beat AI: The power of associating 
  • How can we practice/get better at Failure



Her latest book is "The Portfolio Life: How to Future-Proof Your Career, Avoid Burnout, and Build A Life Bigger Than Your Business Card"
