We are taught to fit within a mold so that we are \u2018employable\u2019 and can hopefully find a job that allows us enough pay to live comfortably and gives us a few weeks off a year. \u2063   \u2063 Yet inflation is skyrocketing, the cost of living is outrageous and people feel disconnected from things that genuinely make them come alive. \u2063 \u2063 We need change. \u2063   I know for many of you reading this, you feel that way too as entrepreneurship is about taking a step away from all of that.  \u2063 For almost a year now I have been exploring blockchain technology (crypto) and web3. \u2063 \u2063 There are many things that overlap with my passions and curiosities. Entrepreneurship, sovereignty, community care, innovation, philosophy, and more. \u2063 \u2063 Like every sector there are people in the space whose only real objective is making money with little regard for others.\u2063 \u2063 However there's also an emergence of concepts and ways of creating that previously could only work in small microscopic ways. \u2063 \u2063 On this week's podcast I explore ways in which you could possibly use these things in your own business. As well we explore public goods, community resource sharing, regenerative economics that value the environment and sustaining it, trying to solve complex philosophical problems in the open, building out systems that can help mass amounts of people achieve financial freedom through shared rewards and more. \u2063 \u2063 The more time I spend learning the more I can see how revolutionary it can be if we empower ourselves to learn about it. \u2063 \u2063 There is a massive learning curve, but I fundamentally believe it is worth it. \u2063   \u2063I also believe that online entrepreneurs like you and I are so close to it already as we need to keep up with changing directions of the internet. \u2063 \u2063 Always feel free to hit reply if you have any questions or shoot me a message on IG (@lanadingwall) or twitter (@lanzdingz)\u2063   Our world is shifting and I want to ensure that people who are community oriented have the tools and resources needed to participate in this space - otherwise it\u2019s just going to be the same old power systems. \u2063 \u2063 We have an opportunity to make a shift, but it\u2019s going to require enough of us to learn and actively participate. I\u2019ll be using my podcast to help with that and I hope you follow along and learn how you can use this technology in your own business as well.    You\u2019re doing better than you realize.    Until next week,    Lana   If you enjoy these conversations, check out The Lighthouse Collective.
