I’ve always said that people only get old when they stop learning; so I’m not getting old, just getting wiser.
Today, I joined the Time Pieces weekly Twitter Space: The Good News show hosted by Rachel W, and my mind was blown by all the valuable insights. I’ve listened to her shows before, and after four years of listening to various Twitter Spaces, hers remains my favorite. Why? Because I always walk away feeling like I’ve just listened to a group of seasoned professionals at an executive level. No disrespect to the many Millennials and Gen Z creators, some of whom I do listen to from time to time and who offer great content but I personally can’t handle high-pitched or overly animated voices for too long, especially when I’m listening through my AirPods. That’s just me.

Today’s session was so good that I had to share it in two different group chats I'm in: 1 with my fashion colleagues, 2 with my childhood friends both full of Gen Xers (with a few late Gen Xers in the fashion group). I also sent the recording to my Millennial daughter, who’s in a creative field but doesn’t usually make time to learn about AI. That’s how impactful the conversation was; it reminded me why I joined Web3 in the first place.
What originally drew me to Web3 was the steep learning curve. Let’s call it what it really is: continuing education. People often refer to YouTube as a kind of university and while the content is definitely there, staying motivated to consistently search for and absorb it can be a challenge. So, as silly as it might sound, if you can find a Twitter Space for just one hour a week that gives you solid takeaways, then by all means, make time for it; I'd recommend The Good News Show. During COVID, I listened to the Bankless guys a lot, they do a great job onboarding people into the world of crypto.
I’ve found tremendous value in listening to strangers talk about emerging tech, and the knowledge I’ve gained feels priceless. With that said, I’m sharing the link to the Time Pieces Twitter Space here where you can listen to the recording. If you're interested in AI, web3 or have children, I think you'll find it just as interesting as I did.
