My Introduction To Hive

šŸ‘‹ Hello everyone!

I'm Crypto3s, and this is my introduction post.
I'll admit, introducing myself is a bit intimidating, but here we go!

Who Am I?

That's how I feel on most days.

I'm thrilled to join Hive and become a positive, active member here. I hope we can connect, collaborate, and build long-lasting friendships.

Iā€™ve always loved sportsā€”especially Basketball and Football. Back in school (what feels like a lifetime ago!), I played sports and did pretty well. Not to toot my own horn, but I was kind of a star! Unfortunately, an injury ended my dreams of going pro. After graduating, I had to find my path in the world. Being the youngest of 8 kids, with 4 brothers and 3 sisters, meant I had to work hard for everything I wanted. It made me stronger and kept me humble.

Fast forward...

When the pandemic hit, the company I worked at for 17 years shut down, forcing over 300 familiesā€”including mineā€”to find new ways to earn a living overnight. It was devastating, but I took a leap of faith and started a small business offering home organization and design services. Things took off quickly, and I even hired three employees. The calls kept coming, and life seemed to be on track.

Then disaster struck. One day, a dump truck T-boned my vehicle while I was driving.
Two years and three surgeries later, I found myself searching once again for a way to support my family. Thatā€™s when I started flipping thrift store finds on Amazon and eBay. It was tough, but I found resilience in the process.

Through these challenges, Iā€™ve learned to embrace lifeā€™s twists and turns. Iā€™ve grown stronger and rediscovered my passion for self-expression and personal growth.

Question: Who Am I?
Answer: Iā€™m still figuring it out, and thatā€™s okay.


Why Am I Here?

Iā€™m here to expand my Hive family, grow both mentally and financially, and contribute to this incredible community. I truly believe that when everyone works together, we can create something powerful. Like bees in a hive, each of us has a role, and Iā€™m ready to do my part.

Iā€™m passionate about organizing events and fundraisers to help those in need. We live in challenging times, and thereā€™s so much we can accomplish by supporting one another. Iā€™m excited to be part of the growth and development of the Hive community, meeting people from around the globe who share similar interests and passions.

I look forward to sharing my experiencesā€”both old and newā€”with all of you. Thanks for reading my post, and I canā€™t wait to grow with this amazing community.
