gm frens, this is it, week 6 of 6 of the DAOpunks Cohort_3.

As promised, the first episode of DAOnboarding - Falling Down the Rabbit Hole has now seen the light. Yay! Ceeeeeeelebration times, c’mon! 🎉

You can listen to it here:

After 24 hours post-launch, 8 people from different parts of the world have listened. Europe, North America, South America, and Asia. What a beauty! 🌎

The feeling of being able to share your own content worldwide is amazing, I’m stoked and curious to see where all of this takes us.

I’m incredibly proud to have been able to launch despite the challenges that arose during the past month. A family loss, focusing on family matters, traveling over to Chile, a 6-hour time zone difference, and work. It hasn’t been easy, but I made it.

We’re here, together, celebrating now this first milestone. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the support and the push through this important first phase. Each message, each collector of these articles, and every word of support can go a long way and in this case, I can confirm it has gone a long way. I feel over the moon with your love and kindness, so again, thank you for that.

Some updates of this final phase:

I decided to launch with only audio on Spotify, Apple, and major podcast platforms, and audio + a video background on YouTube and soon on Lens. No camera action for now. Once I’m back home in Italy in October, I’ll be testing the video waters once again. I would like to prepare my studio, a cozy place to record, and try out some nature locations as well. Here in Chile, it’s still winter so yeah, recording outside wasn’t really a good idea 🤭

I would like to thank my life partner fa3io for being extremely supportive through this process. Thank you for being by my side always and for being such an amazing human.

All credits for the logo animation of the video background and video editing go to him. We’re both discovering our new paths in web3 and being able to work together on projects has been fun and motivates us to continue. I’ll take a minute to do some shameless shill to this wonderful human.

I was a bit nervous about how to record myself, even if it was just voice, but in the end, what worked, was just letting my ideas flow.

I pressed record and I let my mind flow. Creativity, ideas, terms, and words, just started to come and pop up into my head, guided by my heart.

I then passed the audio from this recording to the text, edited the script, and wrote some bullet points for the main ideas. I then recorded the episode with Adobe Podcast. I had never tried it before. It’s in Beta but it did wonders. Thanks Adobe!

I practiced a few times, recorded, edited, and boom, it was time to hit the PUBLISH button. What a great feeling!

DAOnboarding is now real, online (soon onchain), and available to listen for anyone with an eagerness to learn and an internet-connected device.

There’s also some action going on Twitter, now X, too! It’s 11 followers and counting.

Thank you so much for supporting this new baby project.

You can follow DAOnboarding on Twitter here. Don’t be shy! Have a listen, RT, and share the love.

During this week I will continue to push DAOnboarding and bring awareness to the podcast. The last phase of my DAOpunks Cohort_3 involved creating partnerships and collaborations for the project, so I’ll be pursuing this in the upcoming days.

If you’re interested in learning more about DAOnboarding, just hit me up on the project’s Twitter or on my personal one, OrnellaWeb3.

This might be the last article within the DAOpunks Cohort, but it’s definitely the first of a longer journey.

I would like to emphasize the importance and the value that the DAOpunks community provides to anyone looking to find themselves and their way of web3. Give them a follow, get involved, and stay tuned for the next version of their Cohort.

The opportunity that they have shared has gotten me shipping this important project, and who knows what the DAOpunks community can help you achieve? It’s only up to you. The opportunities are endless.

Find that strength in you, take time for yourself, identify your Ikigai, and fly my friend.

Just fly high, and enjoy the ride ✨
