Exploring Web3 + Crypto for Financial Independence

Nonprofit salary is never going to be a competitive salary. How can I have some other kind of income streams coming in for myself.

And so I dug into web three and crypto, and I learned so much so quickly, and I was able to do everything. Like, I jumped in and provided I had the education and the knowledge, every single door was open for me to go through and explore.

And that is just not something that has been my experience with traditional financial kind of services and investing opportunities. And so I was really excited by this premise of, like, well, hold on, if there’s not a banker sitting in front of you deciding whether they’re going to loan you money or not, you actually can do things and make choices for yourself, and your future is not determined by others.

And so I became very interested in this concept of women’s financial independence and actually being able to have some opportunities for women all around the world, especially women who come from countries where more than just their investment opportunities are limited, their ability to have a bank account is limited. So that was a major driving force for me getting into this space.
