Hi Friends!
This trip I had a lot of fun chatting with my friends about the power of the Steem blockchain. There were a few people in the group I didn't know, and when they asked me what I did, I responded that, "My day job is X...but I'm a vlogger". This was the FIRST time I had ever said this aloud or identified in that way. It felt like a pretty exciting moment for me.
They are all very successful women in the world of business and naturally had a lot of questions once I started explaining how the Steem blockchain works.
One of the most striking parts of our conversations were when I pointed out the fact that we have all been creating content this weekend. When I asked if they got payed for creating posts for those mainstream social media sites - the idea seemed a little ridiculous!
When I pointed out the fact that I have literally payed for my plane ticket by creating content for crypto based social media sites like Dtube and Steepshot...it was pretty eye opening.
Because the are all very educated and intelligent - they had a lot of pointed questions about what blockchain means and how everything works. I'm not the most technical person, and so this really helped me sharpen my skills at explaining things.
I've said this before, but I really think it is true. We talk about mass adoption like it is this big thing out of our control. If we all focus on onboarding a few people around us - that is going to be more powerful than any big marketing campaign.
I would just encourage everyone to be willing to put themselves out there a little and share this amazing place with their friends and family.
Alright guys... I leave for the airport in an hour and so this is the last sunny, vacation vlog you'll see from me! I thought last night would be the last one, but we ended up having a few more hours than I thought this morning and have just been taking it easy on the deck this morning.
I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll chat with you when I'm back up in WA State!
xo, Lea
