  It definitely does, and it isn't exactly easy to formulate for many of us who may be interested in diverse topics.

  here's my follow-up question: do you think formulating a pers/brand when you're not sure what it is, is better than not formulating one?

  Ah, but the topics of interest don't determine your brand. What is it about JANE that she brings to all these interests?

  "Jane's perspective" but that is still too vague for me.

  Here are the 3 words that come to mind when I think of you: Analyst. Seeker. Principled. Can you build on that?

  but yes, I exhibit the above traits. I'm most proud of the "principled" one bc "integrity" is a "brand" that only others can give you.

  You're welcome. And, you can join "Idealist" to the term "Seeker" for a fuller picture of Brand Jane. I mean that in a good way.
