Building a Resilient Skill Set for the Decentralized Economy, with Leigh Cuen

Jamil catches up with  Leigh Cuen, to cover the launch of Des Femmes Magazine, which is an annual magazine for women who are thriving at the intersection of tech and finance. We discuss the need for more women to join crypto not just because of gender equality but because building a diverse workforce fosters innovation. The magazine project is led by Leigh, also Camila Russo and Rosalie Lessard. We also discuss Leigh’s role as an educator on crypto wallets at Bitcoin Magazine and the importance of building a resiliency skillset learning technology and sifting through misinformation and disinformation to navigate the crypto economy and build one’s career and wealth as a freelancer.
