Stu McMillanGUEST
One of the things I talk about when I start coaching athletes, or one of the most important things that I think when I s- first started coaching ath- first start to coach an athlete, is to best I- understand what their unique ability is.

Stu McMillanGUEST
Like, what makes them them? Like, what is it about this person that makes them different from everybody else? And when you're doing that, obviously, you have to do the same with yourself.

Stu McMillanGUEST
So what is my unique ability? And I feel like my unique ability's been the way that I've looked at performance and health for a long time now, and that's been from a, a very generalist perspective.

Stu McMillanGUEST
A typical generalist would have a, you know, not a lot of depth of knowledge but has a lot of breadth of knowledge of a lot of different things.

Stu McMillanGUEST
There's a book that I, I read about a decade ago called The Neo-Generalist, Kenneth Mikkelsen and, and, and someone else, and then, and a neo-generalist is someone who's got domain expertise in one or two or three or four important things, but a breadth of, of, of understanding about a lot of related things that can see the integration into relationships between all of those things.

Sharon ChirbanHOST
What was the light bulb? Like, how did you get struck by this notion that all of it was important?
