My Introduction to the Hive Community

Hello #Hive ❤️

My name is Dana-Maria Faneker I am the founder of CaptainVR, I have been sailing on big traditional #Sailing Ships first as a crew member and later as a Captain and now I am empowering people to become the captains of their lives and Virtual Reality and also other emerging tech are the most powerful tools to help me with my mission. That’s why the name is CaptainVR! ⚓

CaptainVR's #mission is to develop interactive XR experiences to boost people & organizations with self-development and #coaching purposes. So that they can practice, learn, and develop in a safe, fun, and interactive environment. So that people become the masters of their lives and can reach their full potential.🌱

I joined Hive last week because of my friends Trendsetters @artakush & @minigunner, shout out to @coldbeetrootsoup

My background

My life, from the age of 18 to 36, primarily unfolded #outdoors and in #nature. I sailed worldwide on large traditional sailing ships as a sailor, embarking on journeys to the Mediterranean Sea, the Baltic Sea, and Spitsbergen in the Arctic. I also served as a skipper in the Netherlands, navigating canal #tours in Amsterdam and piloting a two-masted clipper on the Wadden Sea and the IJsselmeer. Additionally, I frequently worked as a ski instructor in Austria during the winter months.

I am a spiritual person and believe that #social interaction and spending time in nature are essential for good #health. By "spiritual," I mean that I began practicing #yoga and #meditation at a young age. I worked with shamans in natural settings, visited various sacred places, and participated in rituals, including the Stonehenge midsummer night celebration, Selfica healing and meditation in Damanhur, Vipassana retreat at Dhamma Pajjota, and an Ayahuasca weekend in a yurt.

In 2006, I attended a self-development seminar in London, where I first felt that I was truly the captain of my own life. This marked the beginning of my coaching career. In 2010, I started as a coach/trainer at #Greenpeace, and since 2013, I have operated my own coaching practice. My goal has always been to empower people to take charge of their lives. Recognizing that learning new positive behaviors can be challenging, I continuously searched for better ways to assist people.

In 2015, I became the first #coach in the Netherlands to work with Virtual Reality (VR). At that time, there were no VR apps specifically designed for coaching, so I began developing my own VR apps. In 2016, I won the award for the best VR idea in the Netherlands, the "Samsung VR Challenge." Subsequently, I focused more on stress management using #VR and other emerging #technologies like XR and biofeedback.

Metaverse

Since 2019, I have also been active in the #Metaverse, organizing both small and large events and #workshops in VR.

I was the first among my peers to own a mobile phone, but I only purchased my own laptop for work purposes in 2010. Prior to that, I rarely used a laptop because I preferred spending my time outdoors. In a short span of time, I taught myself a great deal about new #technology, with the assistance of many others. This journey ultimately led to the creation of the #CaptainVR, which one of its project is "HAS" - Hybrid Action Space training institute.

Apart from conducting #workshops, training sessions, and educational programs for coaches, trainers, innovation managers, and psychologists, I also ensured the effective implementation of new technology at various organizations. My goal was to make the adoption of new technology as efficient, enjoyable, and accessible as possible.

CaptainVR is making people and organizations future-proof. We encourage people and organizations to proactively engage with new technology and provide #support in managing the workforce of tomorrow.

That's really cool Dana! I remember when AltspaceVR was around. We definitely would love to see more of your content here and who knows, if you'd also develop VR game based on Hive blockchain?

Anyhow, when you have the time, You can read some of the communities in this post that you may like : OCD Communities Incubation Program and for all hive communities you can check https://peakd.com/communities.

Some additional information includes :

  • For tips and information as a Hive newbie, click here: newbie guide.
  • The important thing is Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog. You can't include content that you don't own without sources. For more information, check this post: Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise. Not to mention, overall plagiarized content is bad for your credibility and visibility too.

If you have questions or concerns, you can hop into OCD's Discord server and we'll gladly answer your questions.

~ @macchiata from the @OCD and @lovesniper team bringing you some helpful tips navigating hive.

Like I said, anything. Anything you think I can help with. Getting around the Hive ecosystem, getting to know people, looking for a way to do things on Hive, the proper way to cook bacon & eggs, etc. I just dont like the crypto currency stuff. For that stuff I would just refer you to anybody else. They will most likely be a lot smarter than I am in that area. I just like to help people if I can.

But be warned I am a smart ass and tell some really stupid jokes. Lol.

Hmmm well thats a tricky question. Suppose to be using it everyday or during my free time like the way we using most social medias . but as you notice my growth is stagnant due to me being not consistent, probably because of the challenges life always throws back at me.

There are lots of different communities that have sprouted up around the world, with a lot in Southeast Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe.
