Week I • with Maggie Love
It has been amazing how these past few months have been a catapult to another dimension for me. It all started with a curiosity, which become a reality once I literally launched myself into this world of self-growth that has seen my beautiful Teen son right next to me as a “partner in crime”.
This was all made possible by the choices we took in 2019, from the decision to home-school my son, prioritize self-empowerment and embrace the choice he made to follow his call into Web3 and DeFi starting his high school education as a Homeschooler.
We fought against all judgments from friends and people surrounding us and jumped into a dimension so new for us. In the end, the circle of people we need to surround us is supposed to be made of 5 right? So the first step was easy!
As a single mother, it was important for me to be a guide for my son, the hero I've always been for him. However, this new world was completely foreign to me. My curiosity turned into a necessity and I was eager to learn everything I could about this fascinating world. One day, opportunity presented itself.I’ve learned to desire and make the steps towards it. But I have to say, I discovered it goes both ways. The “thing” of your desire comes your way at the same speed of your desire’s intensity.
I don't even recall how I came across SheFi, perhaps through a women's self-empowerment podcast, but it's been the best path I could have imagined. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity SheFi and Polygon gave me to be a part of their scholarship program, which made it all possible. I'm thrilled to say that I'm in!
It's only week one, and the journey has been amazing so far. It's not easy to start a new chapter in a world you know nothing about, but Maggie Love and Feven have been spectacular. With their knowledge, patience, and peaceful personalities, they exude such positive vibes that all the uncertainties dissipate.
Thank you, beautiful women, and thank you, Polygon, for this incredible opportunity. I’m eagerly looking forward to week two, and I'm proud to be a part of this amazing community of women in Web3.
I can't wait to continue supporting and guiding my son as we embark on this new era together.
