Day 1 Steem Creator Conference - Morning Sessions

Day One

It is hard to believe that this is only the evening of the first day of the Steem Creator Conference. We already have made so many connections and gained so much information through the sessions.

I.J. did such a good job interviewing all the presenters before the conference and posting the videos on @steemcafe. If you weren't able to come this time - do two things right now:

  • Go to @steemcafe, follow the page and start watching the interview videos. Make sure to leave an upvote at a recent post.
  • Start your saving fund so you will not miss the next conference!!

Let me show and tell you about the morning sessions from today and you see why I think you need to be part of this next time.

Like every conference, we started with checking in.

But unlike any other conference, people didn't need any time to warm up. Connections were immediately made.

Some of us had only met via Steemit, others had connected the night before at a mixer I.J. had organized.

Ken Melendez @kenmelendez and Daniel Fishman @hypnopreneur are in a deep conversation with

Our MC Jamie @thehoneys got us off to a good start with lots of jokes

the driving force behind this conference shared his vision for both - Steem and future conferences.

We all (and I think I can speak for all of us) are so grateful that he brought all of us together here.

Then we took the stage.

Do you want to know how to get a local meetup started? Ask any of us and we will share all we know.

In true Steem fashion, I had my phone with me and was able to snap a pic of my fellow panelists.

After a short stretching break, the one and only Quinn took the stage.

In his keynote, Quinn Eaker @quinneaker shared his story of letting go of societal expectations and conditioning and figuring out who he is and how he wants to live.

He created the life he wants for himself and believes that all of us are able to do that for ourselves.

The first step is to figure out what it is we want.

Quinn offers a mastermind to help people figure out how to find success on the platform by being ourselves.

Btw. one of the many things Quinn does is designing clothes and jewelry. His outfit was designed by him for Steemfest and made of reused leather. Very cool!!

Now, it is after 11 pm and that is why I am going to leave the afternoon session for tomorrow. Another full day is planned and I am looking forward to hearing from many more inspiring Steemians.

I am leaving you with one picture of Vegas at night. More tomorrow.
