employment pays for one label. independence pays for finished things.
that's the actual "generalist problem" and it has less to do with skills than everyone thinks.
@lukas margerie quit his agency job and filmed himself learning in public every single day. three months later clients were finding him, and one of those threads turned into the MagicPath role. his skills didn't change in those three months. you could suddenly watch them.
range you can't watch reads like a longer resume. range you can watch reads like a track record.
we got into all of it on UnContrad, how to package being good at many things so buyers read it as an asset. episode's live, link below.

This is a really good way to look at the generalist problem. Showing your range through actual work makes such a difference.

That distinction between a job title and a finished outcome is powerful. Independence really does reward people who can connect multiple skills.
