Yeah, this is fair. I do think that changing your mix is much more risky than just having a mix. There is also a difference between what you're describing and the "my whole life" blog, which is that the mixes themselves form a proper category. It's not a woodworking channel that takes a pause for philosophical musings, it's a maker channel that happens to spend a lot of time on woodworking. My guess is that the "my whole life" blog doesn't work well for developing an audience because the sum total of all of your interests is unique or nearly so—there will be very few people who actually want to read about every one of your hobbies and interests. If you want to connect with people you need to identify a subset of your interests that are shared as a set by many others.
