  • Step’n is a Web 3 health and fitness app that rewards you for movement. Strava and Whoop should take note - there’s a huge opportunity to use NFTs as rewards and incentives for healthy living.

People

  • “Collecting Is an Act of Devotion and Creation”. Academy Award winning filmmaker, DJ and producer Questlove shares his motivation for curating the past.

  • These 5 data-backed insights will help you beat the competition and write a job winning resume. The rise of scanning software has made it challenging to even get a foot in the door.

    • Your mind is a suggestion engine

    • Discomfort is temporary

    • You’ll never regret the work once it’s done
