And a manifesting generator and manifesting are kind of different things. So manifesting generator is an energy type in this Human Design system. And so what it means is I'm designed to be multi-passionate. And so it's less about like jumping ship when things get hard and more about allowing yourself not to be boxed in. So for example, when I was in— I have a— had a 15-year very successful corporate career, I had a side hustle because if I was just in corporate, like, I need other things to keep me engaged and alive. And so that's more about it, is that you are allowed to be multi-passionate. And I think we're often told that we're supposed to just like stick with one thing and not have other passions and, and/or there's something wrong with you if you want to leave something. Because it's no longer lighting you up. And a big part of when I, when I started to learn more about myself and how I was designed was that I'm actually designed to chase things that light me up, to have more than one thing going on at once. And that's how I actually maximize my existence versus harm myself or harm those around me.
