🔥 Day 7: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 Welcome back! So far, we’ve explored the importance of character, self-confidence, responsibility, critical thinking, independent thinking, and understanding value. Today, let’s talk about a mindset that shapes how kids approach learning and growth: REASON 7: IT'S ABOUT INSTILLING A GROWTH MINDSET 🌱 Before kids can understand Bitcoin, they need to believe they can grow and improve. 🌱 A growth mindset is the belief that abilities, intelligence, and understanding aren’t fixed — they can grow with effort, learning, and persistence. This mindset is critical because it empowers kids to face challenges head-on, knowing they have the capacity to improve. When kids adopt a growth mindset, they become lifelong learners. Kids with a growth mindset: * Embrace challenges as opportunities to learn. * Understand that failure is part of the learning process. * Are more resilient and willing to push through difficulties. 🚀 A growth mindset makes it easier for kids to grasp complex concepts like Bitcoin because they believe they can figure it out, even if it’s hard at first. 🚀 Whether it’s learning a new skill, solving a tough math problem, or understanding how decentralized systems work, a growth mindset helps children see potential instead of obstacles. They know that effort leads to improvement, and they’re not afraid to dive into new or unfamiliar territory. ✨ When kids believe they can grow, they’ll be excited to explore — including exploring Bitcoin one day. ✨ 🎯 How do YOU foster a growth mindset in kids? Whether it’s encouraging perseverance or celebrating effort over results, I’d love to hear your methods for cultivating this powerful mindset. 💬 Drop your insights in the comments below! 🔜 Tomorrow, we’ll cover Reason 8: Fostering Creativity and Innovation.

🔥 Day 6: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 Welcome back! We’ve talked about building character, developing self-confidence, instilling personal responsibility, teaching critical thinking, and encouraging independent thinking. Today, we’re diving into a fundamental concept: REASON 6: IT'S ABOUT HELPING KIDS UNDERSTAND VALUE 💡 Before kids can appreciate what Bitcoin is, they need to understand the concept of value. 💡 We’re not just talking about money — we’re talking about value in everything: time, effort, relationships, and yes, financial systems. Teaching children what value means — how it’s created, preserved, and sometimes lost — is the foundation for understanding more complex economic concepts later on. When kids understand value, they: * Recognize the importance of hard work and saving. * See the true worth in their actions and decisions. * Begin to appreciate how value can change, grow, or erode over time. 💰 Bitcoin is about preserving value, but before that, kids need to know what value is. 💰 If children don’t grasp the basic idea of value, they won’t understand why Bitcoin was created or why it’s so significant. Start by teaching them about value in their everyday lives — from saving money in their piggy bank to valuing their time and effort. Once they have this foundation, they’ll be able to connect the dots to larger ideas like Bitcoin. ✨ When kids understand value, they’re equipped to make smarter decisions about what’s important to them — in money and in life. ✨ 🎯 How are YOU teaching the concept of value to kids? Whether it’s through money lessons, work ethic, or daily choices, I’d love to hear how you’re helping kids grasp this essential idea. 💬 Share your thoughts in the comments! 🔜 Tomorrow, we’ll talk about Reason 7: Instilling a Growth Mindset.

💡 How Inflation and Money Supply Are Quietly Shaping Our Lives: Lessons from The Hidden Cost of Money In our latest reading club discussions of @Seb Bunney's The Hidden Cost of Money, we uncovered some stark truths about how inflation and banking practices impact our daily lives—and it’s clear that these issues affect all of us, no matter where we live. One of our members from Europe shared a frustration that resonated deeply: When people protest against unfair government regulations, they’re often vilified. The result? It feels like the syst em just shrugs it off, leaving people powerless to create meaningful change. This led us to think—how many of us feel trapped in a system we can’t change? Another member pointed out something that’s happening right under our noses: Property owners push management companies to constantly raise rents to “market” levels, even for long-term tenants who have always paid on time. The result? People are being priced out of their homes because their incomes can’t keep up with the rising cost of living. Can you imagine paying rent faithfully for years only to be evicted because of a rent hike? It’s happening all around us. We also had a real “Aha!” moment when one member admitted she had no idea that banks, not just the Federal Reserve, increase the money supply. Banks are able to lend more due to lowered reserve ratio requirements, which fuels inflation. This concept shocked many of us—most people don’t realize how the system works and how it’s affecting our wallets. And perhaps the most heartbreaking comment came from a member whose 26-year-old son doesn’t expect to ever own a home. He’s already accepted that homeownership is out of reach due to skyrocketing prices. Imagine being in your 20s and feeling like you’ll never achieve one of the most fundamental milestones of adulthood. It’s a harsh reality that many young people are coming to terms with today. These aren’t just stories—they’re real-life impacts of a system designed to benefit those with assets while leaving the rest to struggle. The discussions we’ve had in our reading club go beyond just reading; they’ve helped us see how these hidden forces shape our lives in ways we often don’t realize. Are you ready to join the conversation? Reading alone only scratches the surface. Together, we can dive deeper into the hidden cost of money and how to protect our families’ futures.

🔥 Day 5: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 Welcome back! So far, we’ve covered strength of character, self-confidence, personal responsibility, and critical thinking skills. Today, we’re focusing on another crucial element in preparing kids for the future: REASON 5: IT'S ABOUT ENCOURAGING INDEPENDENT THINKING 🧠 Before kids can grasp the concept of Bitcoin, they need to learn how to think for themselves. 🧠 In a world where information is everywhere, it’s easy to follow the crowd or go along with popular opinion. But real innovation — like Bitcoin — doesn’t come from conformity. It comes from thinking independently, questioning the status quo, and finding new solutions to old problems. When children develop independent thinking, they: * Challenge conventional wisdom instead of accepting it blindly. * Develop their own opinions and are comfortable standing by them. * Become more resilient in the face of peer pressure and societal expectations. 🚀 Bitcoin itself is a product of independent thinking — a challenge to traditional financial systems. 🚀 Kids who learn to think independently are more likely to embrace innovative ideas like Bitcoin because they won’t be tied to outdated systems or ways of thinking. They’ll have the confidence to explore alternatives and trust their own judgment when navigating new concepts. ✨ Encouraging independent thinking means empowering kids to break free from the mold and discover the world on their own terms. ✨ 🎯 How do YOU foster independent thinking in the kids around you? Whether it’s encouraging them to form their own opinions or teaching them to ask “why,” I’d love to hear your thoughts! 💬 Drop your ideas in the comments below. 🔜 Tomorrow, we’ll talk about Reason 6: Helping Kids Understand Value.

🔥 Day 4: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 Welcome back! So far, we’ve talked about the importance of strength of character, self-confidence, and personal responsibility in preparing kids for the future. Today, we’re focusing on another crucial skill: REASON 4: IT'S ABOUT TEACHING CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS 🧠 Before kids can understand concepts like Bitcoin, they need to know how to think critically. 🧠 Critical thinking is the ability to analyze, evaluate, and interpret information objectively. In a world flooded with information, teaching kids how to think — not what to think — is more important than ever. When children develop strong critical thinking skills, they: * Learn to ask the right questions and challenge assumptions. * Analyze information carefully, instead of blindly accepting it. * Become more adaptable to change and open to new ideas. 🚀 Critical thinking is the foundation for understanding complex ideas like Bitcoin. 🚀 Bitcoin isn’t just a new form of money; it represents a shift in how we think about trust, decentralization, and financial systems. Kids who are equipped with critical thinking skills can navigate these complex ideas with confidence. They’ll be able to discern fact from fiction and make informed decisions in a rapidly evolving world. ✨ Teach kids to think critically, and they’ll be prepared for whatever the future holds — including disruptive technologies like Bitcoin. ✨ 🎯 How do YOU teach critical thinking to kids? I’d love to hear your strategies for fostering curiosity and encouraging kids to ask questions.

🔥 Day 3: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 Welcome back! We’ve already covered strength of character and self-confidence as essential building blocks. Today, we’re diving into the next key element: REASON 3: IT'S ABOUT INSTILLING PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY 💡 Before kids can appreciate decentralized systems like Bitcoin, they need to understand personal responsibility.💡 In a world that increasingly rewards shortcuts, teaching children the value of accountability is critical. Personal responsibility means taking ownership of one’s actions and their consequences — a vital life skill that directly aligns with the ethos of Bitcoin and decentralized technology. When kids develop personal responsibility, they: * Understand that their choices matter. * Learn that freedom and accountability go hand in hand. * Become self-reliant and more aware of how their actions impact the world around them. 🚀 Bitcoin isn’t just about technology; it’s about personal responsibility. 🚀 With Bitcoin, there’s no middleman — you’re in control of your own wealth. This concept can only be understood by kids who already know what it means to take responsibility for their actions. From completing homework on time to managing their savings, these small lessons add up to a bigger understanding of autonomy. ✨ Teach responsibility early, and kids will be better prepared for a future where self-reliance and accountability are essential. ✨ 🎯 How are you teaching personal responsibility to the kids in your life? Whether it’s through chores, managing money, or making choices, I’d love to hear your strategies! 💬 Drop your thoughts in the comments below. 🔜 Tomorrow, we’ll explore Reason 4: Teaching Critical Thinking Skills.

🔥 Day 2: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 Welcome back! Yesterday, we talked about strength of character as the foundational trait that prepares kids to embrace new ideas like Bitcoin. Today, we’re diving into the second key ingredient: REASON 2: IT'S ABOUT DEVELOPING SELF-CONFIDENCE 🚀 Before kids can explore big ideas, they need to believe they’re capable of learning and growing. 🚀 Self-confidence is the fuel that drives curiosity, persistence, and innovation. When children are confident in their own abilities, they’re more likely to: * Tackle challenging concepts head-on. * Ask questions and seek out knowledge independently. * Persist through failures and see them as learning opportunities. 💪 Confidence is the gateway to deeper understanding. 💡 Whether it’s figuring out how money works or understanding the complexities of Bitcoin, self-confidence is the tool that allows kids to approach these topics without fear or doubt. They’ll be willing to explore the unknown because they know they can handle whatever comes their way. ✨ Confident kids don’t need to be told what to think — they’ll figure it out for themselves. ✨ The best part? Self-confidence isn’t something kids are born with — it’s something we, as parents and educators, can nurture and grow over time. 🎯 How are YOU building confidence in the kids around you? Do you encourage them to try new things, make mistakes, and grow from the experience? 💬 Share your insights in the comments below! 🔜 Tomorrow, we’ll explore Reason 3: Instilling Personal Responsibility.

🔥 Introducing: 10 Reasons Why Orange-Pilling Kids Isn’t About Telling Them About Bitcoin…Yet 🔥 🔐 We all want the next generation to thrive in an ever-changing world. But before we jump into teaching kids about Bitcoin or any other new technology, we need to lay the right foundation. 🤔 Why? Because understanding Bitcoin isn’t just about knowing what it is — it’s about cultivating the internal traits that empower kids to question, explore, and embrace innovative solutions. Over the next 10 days, I’ll be sharing the 10 reasons why orange-pilling kids goes beyond talking about Bitcoin and focuses on building core life skills first. 💥 Let’s dive into the first and most important reason. 💥 REASON 1: IT'S ABOUT BUILDING STRENGTH OF CHARACTER 🛠️ Character is the foundation for everything. Before kids can understand complex concepts like Bitcoin, they need to build inner resilience. We’re talking about traits like honesty, perseverance, and integrity — the pillars of strong character. When children develop strength of character, they: * Embrace challenges rather than shy away from them. * Stay true to their values, even in tough situations. * Learn to take responsibility for their actions. 💪 Without a strong foundation of character, no amount of knowledge will stick. 💡 Here’s why this matters: Bitcoin, as a decentralized system, represents personal responsibility and self-reliance. Kids with strong character are better equipped to make sense of this system and, more importantly, use it wisely. ✨ It’s about empowering kids to do what’s right, even when it’s hard.✨ And that starts with instilling strength of character from a young age. 🎯 Over to you: What are you doing today to help build the character of the children in your life? How are you teaching resilience, honesty, and responsibility? 💬 Share your thoughts in the comments! Let’s build a generation of strong, empowered kids — Bitcoin will come later. 👇👇 🔜 Stay tuned! Tomorrow, I’ll share Reason 2: Developing Self-Confidence. You don’t want to miss it! #education #characterbuilding #parenting #bitcoin #leadership

💡 Money, Life Energy, and Illusions: What the Orange Hatter Reading Club Discussed 💡 Ever feel like you're putting in all the work, but inflation and taxes are draining your progress? Our reading club is tackling this head-on through The Hidden Cost of Money by @Seb Bunney, and the discussions have been eye-opening. Last night we covered the Forward, Preface, Introduction and Chapter 1. 🎢 One member shared a conversation with her son, who is fully invested in his work, calling it “Disneyland.” He’s pouring all his waking hours into the job, believing the payoff will be financial security. But what he doesn’t realize is that he’s living an illusion. Behind the beautiful facade, inflation is quietly siphoning away his life energy, making it harder for him to ever achieve the security he’s working so hard for. 💸 Another member expressed her growing frustration at how her hard-earned money is being stolen both covertly (through inflation) and overtly (through ever-increasing taxes). She can’t read without feeling the injustice of it all. 🧠 We also touched on the powerful idea that “you can only fix a problem if you know what the problem is.” And here’s a big one: absolutely EVERYTHING is downstream of money. When our purchasing power erodes, what’s really being stolen is our time—the very essence of our life energy. These conversations transform how we see the world, money, and our lives. If you’ve ever felt like you’re spinning your wheels or fighting against forces you can’t quite identify, this space is for you. 🧐 🧐 Join us to go deeper—because reading alone only scratches the surface.

New to Nostr, learning how to use it. Just updated my profile. Looking for other nostr women. About me: With an MBA from Yale and a rich, 20-year journey of homeschooling four incredible children, my career path took an unexpected yet fulfilling turn into the heart of the Bitcoin universe. It was through my husband's innovative game, HODL UP, that I first stepped into the Bitcoin space, sparking a curiosity that quickly turned into a passionate pursuit. Traveling and engaging with diverse communities unveiled a pressing need: to bring Bitcoin knowledge to more women, to make it accessible, relatable, and empowering. This realization was the birthplace of the Orange Hatter Podcast. Through this platform, I share the untold stories of everyday women—those you meet at the grocery store or live next door. These narratives highlight how Bitcoin provides solutions to real-life problems, embodying the idea that if Bitcoin can be useful to one woman, it could be beneficial to all. My mission is simple yet profound: to demystify Bitcoin for women, showing its practicality and potential to transform lives. This ambition drove me to create a weekly online reading club dedicated to studying and sharing Bitcoin knowledge in an intimate, supportive setting. The journey didn't stop there; I established a women's retreat to bring Bitcoin enthusiasts together in person. This retreat is more than an event; it's a sanctuary for rejuvenating the spirit, fostering deep connections, and building lasting friendships among women in the Bitcoin community. Recognizing the entrepreneurial spirit in many women Bitcoiners, I formed a mastermind group. This initiative supports female entrepreneurs in the Bitcoin space, providing a platform for collaboration, growth, and mutual success. My path from a Yale MBA to a pioneer in women's Bitcoin empowerment reflects my belief in continuous learning, the power of community, and the transformative potential of Bitcoin. I am dedicated to making the Bitcoin space more inclusive and accessible, one woman at a time. Join me on this journey to explore how Bitcoin can be not just an investment, but a tool for empowerment and change.
