When Your Outfit Matches The Inside of Your Brain

Hi Friends!

I went out for a walk this morning and took a double take in the mirror on my way out because I realized I look like a Steem commercial! I'm loving all the awesome swag I left with from Steemfest and I guess you could say my outfit fully represents what the inside of my brain looks like right now too. Yes, I have other hobbies, passions and projects (Oh wait...and a full time job too I guess) but I feel like so much of my energy and where I'm excited to spend my time these days is right here on Steemit.

Yesterday was such an epic day for me in my Steem journey as it marked the first time I really jumped onto a major project happening on the Steem blockchain. After @anomadsoul and I have spent the last few months chatting, planning, strategizing, and organizing things for the @steemonboarding project - we were excited to discuss this idea with key community members at Steemfest. It was encouraging to be met with so much optimism in those conversations and so we decided to move forward and officially get the ball rolling. One of my favorite conversations from Steemfest was with the Steemit Inc. team saying how badly something like this was needed - but they just didn't have the time. They appreciated that instead of just complaining about the onboarding process, we wanted to actually do something about it.

Check out the announcement post HERE.

On my walk this morning I really reflected on how cool it felt to see so much enthusiasm for the project yesterday. I love this community so much and between the amazing friendships that formed at Steemfest, and launching Steem Onboarding yesterday - I guess you could say I'm on a bit of a Steem high right now. Don't get me wrong, this project is going to be a lot of work, but it feels good to be working on something I'm really excited about and think will be valuable.

Big love to @rivalzzz for the awesome Steem beanie and to @roelandp for getting us some Steemit shirts in our goodie bags. Ps... don't be fooled by the sunshine. It's literally freezing (I can see my breath)...so I just ditched my jacket for a hot second to take this picture. Thank god for that beanie!

I don't know if you would call this a free-write or just a random thoughts blog... but I hope you guys enjoyed it! It's a little different than my usual video content - but I guess I was in the mood to sit and write!

I've got some work to do today - and then lots to work on for Steem onboarding, but other than that it should be a pretty chill/fun day for me. I'm looking forward to cooking a good dinner and drinking some wine tonight. What are you guys up to on your Saturday?

Big love!

Xo, Lea

Greetings, dear Coruscate.

When I saw you in the photo, I thought I was ready to run. This sea behind you is swimmable ??? It seems to be a very quiet place to practice physical activity.

Thank you and good evening!

Oh the water is very cold!! You sure wouldn't want to swim for long if you were brave enough to try it.

Still a beautiful area to walk around though. This is right by my house. <3

Are you active on Instagram? :D

I have an account, but I pretty much only check it if someone tags me in something. hahah

Do you use insta?

haha, trying to start using it to promo steem lol

Guess u are what u wear as much as what u eat eh?

Steem Beanie, t-shirt, underwear?
Your blue t-shirt matches the sky perfectly.
Netflix on Saturday.

oh man...Netflix is gonna happen for me soon. About to cook dinner and sit down to chill after that! :)

I hope you've had a good day too!

I’m lovin’ that steem gear! 🙋🏼‍♂️

hollllla!

So pumped for @steemonboarding.
I have several friends whom I am having a difficult time getting integrated. Your efforts will be so helpful towards the growth of this Steem family!

Thanks so much for the positive feedback @daltono!! I actually have a list of friends that I'm excited to send this to once we are live as well. haha

I've just had too many experiences where I spend hooours with someone, and maybe they even make an intro post - but then just don't stick with it. It's honestly held me back from inviting more people - so yeah i'm right there with you that I'll start onboarding more people when I can send them a link to a website to get them started. :)

Thanks for stopping by and have a good day!!

I’ve had similar experiences getting ppl on to steemit and then not being successful keeping them engaged after having spent considerable time helping them out lol :/

I have faith in your efforts!

So you need a steem key fob, a steem wrist band, a steem card wallet, a steem belt, a steem.....

hahah yeah I better get working on those Steem accesories! Maybe some steem sunglasses and earings too??

I could quickly go from "cute" to "Crazy steem lady" with just a few more pieces. #lifegoals

Well I DO know where you can get all those, should the crazy steem lady deep inside start wanting to come out in a big way. Maybe there is a new superhero waiting to happen...Steem Lady.

I feel the same way, but unfortunately I don't have such a good looking outfit.

And you are super pretty (especially being a Steem commercial!) ;D

aww thanks @diogosantos. <3

You are definitely high on Steem now. And even it was freezing, you would not mind to take off the jacket and snapped this photo for us. He he.

We sure do love steem. Will check out the new project 😊.

aww thanks love!! <3

I was thinking, we can still go out with our SF badges with our usernames, anyone a bit curious will ask what is that, so we can tell them to create an account and scan us :P

An interesting thought for sure :)

Oooh that is an interesting thought @hedac! @arcange would be so happy you are still trying to scan people - even a week after Steemfest... hahah

Hmmm ... trying to cheat SteemitBoard's contest 😏

Nah, just kidding. This gives me the idea of doing some permanent onboarding challenge using our SteemFest badges...

Thanks for pinging me.

Looking REAL C😎😎L for that HOT second @coruscate

I enjoyed your free write random thoughts blog this weekend morning or afternoon.

Keep STEEM N ON,
Frank

Thanks Frank! I'm glad you enjoyed this style of post. It's been a fun Saturday! I hope you've had a good day as well. :)

Pleasures mine Lea, preparing for my surf trip over here on the West Coast first thing early Sunday morning.

Thanks for always replying to ALL your comments on your blog.

You are AWESOME!

👍😎

ooh that's so fun!! I'm west coast too - but up in WA. So... pretty freaking cold. Hopefully you are down in cali where it's a bit warmer for your surf trip!

Fun and keeps me in shape and fit. Not getting any younger... 😏👈

Haven't surfed up north yet but wearing a wetsuit I am not cold during the winters. Last week some YOUNG TARZAN looking dude was just trunking it no wetsuit! #Crazy

I am pretty lucky to be in SoCal ATM surfing my favorite surf spot in San Clemente.

Look forward to seeing your post when I get back.

XoXo, Frank

SoCal sounds nice about now! I could see my breath outside today. 😆

Have fun and I’ll chat with you later!

As always @coruscate you are doing a splendid job! I'm glad I got you on my follow user list now haha ...
Btw, I'm working on a project called ( been on hold a bit ) @userhelp which will be a blockchain based user help ticket system that will pay people to answer questions. We might have some synergy with our project and yours. I'm debating a few methods on how to go about doing this ( maybe, tokenbb, or steempress ) , either way wanted to throw it your way! once I get it somewhat up and running I'll holla back at ya!

Omg im in love with that hat!!!!!

Steem merchandising is so sweet

Thanks!! I got it from @rivalzzz at Steemfest and I loooove it!

A beautiful cheerful walking steem commercial ! =) keep onboarding more ppl

PS : notice your have a instagram but inactive for months, saw a photo of you with uke maybe you can play a piece and upload =), maybe with this it can give you a reason to continue, check out share2steem new dapp to easily autopost instagram posts to steemit.

At the same time more distribution channels for your content and more exposure to ppl outside steemit and onboard them through your content.

Looks like you got the Steem bug, Lea? :-) Hehe

Yes, I have other hobbies, passions and projects (Oh wait...and a full time job too I guess) but I feel like so much of my energy and where I'm excited to spend my time these days is right here on Steemit.

I can totally relate. Time spent on Steem is time well invested. You get so much in return for it. Sometimes you feel that the double of energy you put in is actually returned back.

Happy steemy weekend to you! And keep yourself warm :-)
xxx Marly -

Nice to hear on new projects. I guess that might be to help people to join Steemit easily!?

Here we prepared some comfort food (stuffed bread) and drank a glass of red wine enjoying the fireplace.

I hear you, sister. I've got Steem on the brain and on my hoodie. ;) I'm also THRILLED to see the @steemonboarding project getting off the ground. I'll chip in some delegation once things are in motion. This is something that is badly needed, and I think you and @anomadsoul are perfect ambassadors for bringing newbies onto the platform in a way that sets them up for success. Stay warm out there. Big love!

it is realy good job, congratulations
