“This framework is a game changer”
This framework is a game changer and happens to come at the perfect time for me, as I’m crafting my updated profile and an offering to move from employed to self-employed/ business owner.
“Excellent framing, great length, very captivating”
Excellent framing, great length, very captivating, and an article that shows off what generalists do best…connect the dots and integrate things others can’t! Thanks Milly!
“These jobs are unique and are sometimes hard to find”
These jobs are unique and are sometimes hard to find. I appreciate the curated postings that are for generalist and I really enjoy the help with the job searching.
The work world is hard …when you don’t fit in a box
We get it. It feels tough being a generalist because work was never designed keeping you in mind. Maybe these sound familiar….
You scroll job listings and think, “Where do I even fit?”
Roles feel too narrow. You feel too much, and not enough, all at once.
“If you are on the job hunt or believe even for a second that you may be a Generalist, I recommend you join Generalist World as soon as possible”
You keep second-guessing your path because it doesn’t look like anyone else’s.
The world rewards specialists. You’ve never been just one thing.
“Cried real tears because of how beautifully Milly, Lindsey, and the Generalist World team are articulating what exactly I feel, but never quite pinpointed!!”
You’ve done a bit of everything, but when someone asks what you do, you freeze.
It’s hard to wrap your work into a neat, one-line answer.
“I have already found greater career clarity and confidence than I have had in years”
Welcome to the age of generalism
We’re glad you’re here!
There has never been a better time to be a nonlinear, nontraditional, squiggly careerist!
Our solutions to help you
We obsess over helping generalists find their path. We do it in three ways:
Positioning Guidebook
Most career advice asks you to narrow down (because it’s built for specialists). But we know that clarity, momentum, and opportunity are possible without shrinking yourself.
This guide helps you turn your experience in a way that makes people lean in.
Get Unboxed
Your blueprint for designing a career on your terms. Unboxed is your step-by-step proven process to fine-tune your strengths, map your next steps, and create long-term momentum.
You’ll build a career flywheel that compounds over time and feels undeniably yours.
Community
You’ve been the quiet force in every room (and every call). Making sense of the mess. Holding it all together. It’s time to be seen and celebrated for it. It’s your time.
Our community is where generalists find their identity, expression, and direction.

Find your next move (one that feels like you wrote it)
Jobs, gigs, collaborations – things that don’t require you to shrink yourself to fit.

“In an age of rapid change, generalists are the ones who can navigate uncertainty with creativity and resourcefulness.”
Untangle who you are (without needing a five-year plan)

We’ll help you connect the dots, so you can move forward with more trust in yourself.
