Support + Inspiration for Serious Multipotentialites

Coping With Stress Through Learning – From Malawi, Live With Thrive – TMP 035

Thrive (Foster Thrive Mandala Jr.) is a very committed Puttyverse member and learn-a-holic who lives in Blantyre, Malawi. He’s studying architecture and programing, but also loves writing, graphic design, music, and all sorts of other things like a good multipotentialite.

Thrive is our first guest from Africa and in this conversation, we get to learn about his interests and insights. Hosts Ted and Sara explore the notion of coping with stress, the struggles of moving to the city from the countryside, the essential elements to develop intelligence, and the acceptance of oneself through learning and embracing one’s own personality.

Thrive’s testimony is a story of overcoming, embracing creativity, and of a true multipotentialite personality. Thrive has found our Verse to be a place to express a part of him that most people around him don’t know, and in this episode he really opens up to us to get to know him.
