How to 'Passion Stack' to Boost Your Income and Happiness
Ready to learn how to passion stack to boost your income and happiness?
I sent out an email recently about this and it was a hit!
Passion stacking is about combining multiple interests to create a fulfilling life, business, and everything in between.
For individuals like me, who are multi-passionate, the idea of narrowing down to a niche can be challenging. The constant fear of missing out on something exciting makes it difficult to commit to just one thing. However, there's an alternative approach – passion stacking. Instead of picking and abandoning interests rapidly, you can combine them strategically.
Let's dive into what passionate stacking is and how you can implement it in your life and business.
Navigating my life has been challenging due to the coexistence of my creative and logical sides. My brain is all over the place all the time ha!
In my first corporate job in the marketing department, I found a way to merge both passions. Handling brochure design and development, live events, and growing email lists during the day, I also started teaching art classes at night, tapping into my degree in art therapy.
This was my first taste of passion stacking, and it made my days incredibly fulfilling.
As I've grown, I've observed others successfully passion stacking, with Gary V being a prominent example in the marketing scene.
He runs multiple businesses surrounding different passions, creating a win-win situation for himself and others. Passion stacking involves combining multiple interests to shape a unique and fulfilling life.
How to Passion Stack:
Integration of Passions: Start by doing a brain dump of all your passions and interests. Look for common threads that connect them.
Holistic Approach: Embrace the idea that you don't have to pick just one passion. Explore multiple interests and find ways to integrate them.
Set Goals: Set specific goals for each passion area. This helps you stay focused and organized amidst the diversity of your pursuits.
Passion stacking isn't confined to a single business; it can span various areas of your life. The key benefit is a reduced risk of burnout. By incorporating multiple passions into your days, weeks, and months, you create a more sustainable and fulfilling lifestyle.
Real-Life Examples

Stacy's Creative Path: Stacy Bloomfield began on Etsy, creating designs that evolved into licensing opportunities. Passionate about helping others in the creative space, she developed a course to teach artists how to license their artwork successfully.
Tips for Successful Passion Stacking
Time Management: Be aware of how you allocate your time among different passions to avoid burnout.
Goal Setting: Set goals for each passion area, and organize your schedule accordingly.
Mono-Tasking: Focus on one task at a time, using techniques to maintain productivity.
Passion stacking is highly individualized. There's no one-size-fits-all blueprint, as everyone has a unique schedule, set of passions, and goals. Tailor your approach to what works best for you, considering your time, schedule, and the different passions you want to explore.
As you embark on the journey of passion stacking, remember to focus on yourself and your unique circumstances. Avoid the comparison game, as everyone's situation is different.
