Today, I want to talk about Why I started the 50MM Collective. When I first got started in NFTs in 2021, I noticed a lot of talk about finding and being part of great communities. But as someone who is mixed-race and transgender, I struggled to find a community where I truly felt represented. Growing up in Holland, Michigan, a predominantly white area, I often felt like the only person who looked like me. This feeling continued even when I joined different online communities. It's an isolating experience not to feel seen, heard, or understood. And when you internalize these feelings, it gives power to your inner critic – that little voice telling you that you're not good enough and that what you're doing doesn't matter.
That's why I created the 50MM Collective. This collective is about creating art and NFTs and building a space where everyone can feel like they belong. Our goal is to empower and uplift underrepresented voices in the NFT community. We believe that everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and celebrated for their unique experiences and perspectives.
That's why I started the Fiddy Fam Friday series on my Twitter! (also live-streamed to YouTube & Kick) It's a way for us to showcase the incredible talent and stories of our community members. It's about creating a platform to amplify each other's voices and break down the barriers that have held us back for too long.
So, if you've ever felt like you don't fit in or haven't had your story heard, I encourage you to join the 50MM Collective and become part of the Fiddy Fam. Together, we can build a community that supports and uplifts each other, and create a billion-dollar brand that represents and celebrates diversity.
Thank you for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. Stay inspired, stay motivated, and keep building that billion-dollar brand.
A year ago I was selling my photography as NFT’s making more money from my artwork than I could ever imagine, I helped launch and operate a NFT art gallery in Santa Monica, and I was engaged to the love of my life.
Currently, I am back home in Michigan, no longer engaged, and still recovering from breaking my hand and wrist this year. An injury that left me questioning my purpose, identity, and career path. This was my rock bottom but I refused to give up.
I have spent the past few months working on myself and getting aligned with my calling.
My goal? To bring you along on this journey of healing, self-discovery, and abundance to show you that YOU CAN DO THIS TOO.
In this first video, I talk about: - How Breakdowns lead to breakthroughs - The power of authenticity - How I’m going to start this Billion Dollar Brand
Today is a celebration! 🎉 One year ago today, August 4th, 2022, was my first shot of testosterone. The day that made taking steps towards my most authentic self feel REAL.
