They say, “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.”

These days, the world tells us to specialize—find one path, stick to it, and follow it to the end. But what if one path isn’t enough? What if you want to learn it all?

What if you want to be a Jane of all trades?

That’s what The Everything Experiment is all about—a space where curiosity has no limits, and learning is only bound by time and effort.

Want to learn about crystals? Look no further.
Curious about sourdough? I’ve got you covered.
Thinking about dipping into stock trading? There will be an article for that—eventually.

Why This Matters

The education system was designed to create a copy-paste workforce—teaching us just enough to function at the next level, whether that was another classroom or another job.

Sit still. Follow the curriculum. Don’t ask unrelated questions.

But if we were meant to stay in just one lane, why do so many of us burn out, feel unfulfilled, and crave something more?

Some people love sticking to a single passion, and that’s great. But is that truly your choice, or is it what you were told to do?

What is The Everything Experiment?

It’s exactly what it sounds like—my experiment in learning everything.

This is my place to try, fail, and grow, and to bring you along for the ride.

I’ll read the books, watch the videos, listen to the experts, and break everything down in a way that’s useful, practical, and easy to digest.

For centuries, learning was passed from person to person, the only cost being time and effort. But today not everyone has the time to deep-dive into every topic—but I do. And whether you’re here for quick takeaways or want to go deeper, there’s something for you.

Everything is connected—gardening and bullet journaling, modern medicine and herbal remedies, technology and creativity. The Everything Experiment is here to explore those connections.

Why Me?

And if you’re wondering why you should listen to me?

Honestly—you don’t have to. I’m not here to be an “expert.” I’m here to be curious, to explore, and to share the journey.

My name is Makayla. I grew up in the Midwest, doing a little bit of everything—because I needed to, but also because I wanted to. I’ve always wanted to explore those 2 am rabbit holes, those thoughts like: What if I learned how to do this myself? And now, I finally am.

Your Turn

What’s something you’ve always wanted to try but never given yourself the time or space for?

For me, it was sourdough.

At first, it felt overwhelming—so much conflicting advice, so many variables. But through trial, error, and research, I figured it out. Now? It’s second nature.

And that’s the thing—most skills aren’t as complicated as they seem once you cut through the noise and just start.

So, what’s something you’ve been putting off learning? And what’s stopping you?
