Mark Zuckerberg renamed Facebook after it, celebrities like Ariana Grande are giving concerts in it, big brands like Nike and Gucci are designing digital fashion for it - the Metaverse seems to be quite a big thing.

Too often cultural norms, structural barriers and all the practical impossibilities of everyday life stand in their way when it comes to taking the next step to following their own vision and dreams.
