Welcome to a special episode where I share the story behind "Pivoting to Web3" – why I started this podcast, and why I believe we're standing at the edge of a technological revolution as significant as the computer chip boom of the 1970s and 80s.
I'm Donna Mitchell, and if you've ever wondered whether blockchain and Web3 are just buzzwords or truly transformative technologies, this episode is for you. We're going to explore real-world applications that are already changing lives, from underserved communities to major corporations, and why I'm convinced this isn't just another tech trend.

The Genesis Story - My "Why" "The Intel Revolution Parallel"

Let me take you back to when I first encountered blockchain technology. Like many people, my initial reaction was skepticism. Another digital fad? Another bubble waiting to burst? But the more I dug into the underlying technology, the more I realized we were looking at something fundamentally different.

Think about Intel and the microprocessor revolution of the 1970s and 80s. When Intel released the 4004 chip in 1971, most people couldn't imagine how a tiny piece of silicon would reshape every aspect of human life. Personal computers seemed like toys for hobbyists. The internet was a research project. Mobile phones were science fiction.
But visionaries like Gordon Moore and Andy Grove saw beyond the immediate applications. They understood that when you create a new foundational technology – a new way of processing information – you don't just create a product. you create an entirely new platform for innovation.

That's exactly what I see happening with blockchain technology today. We're not just talking about cryptocurrency or digital collectibles. We're talking about a fundamental reimagining of how we store, verify, and transfer value and information. We're talking about removing intermediaries, increasing transparency, and democratizing access to financial and digital services.
I started "Pivoting to Web3" because I realized that most conversations about blockchain were either too technical for everyday people or too focused on speculation and trading. I wanted to create a bridge – a place where we could explore the real-world applications, the human stories, and the transformative potential of this technology.

🎯 Three Big Problems Blockchain Solves

Trust – It removes the need for middlemen by building trust into the system itself.

Access – It opens up financial tools to billions who’ve been excluded.

Transparency – It makes data tamper-proof and visible to all.

🌍 Real-World Impact Across Industries
From Walmart tracking food safety to FedEx improving vaccine logistics, JPMorgan streamlining billion-dollar transactions, and Dubai revolutionizing property ownership—blockchain is already changing the game in healthcare, finance, supply chain, and real estate.

Ready to unlock the secrets of publishing in the age of AI and Web3?

In this episode of the Pivoting to Web3 Podcast, I sit down with Danielle Hutchinson, Chief Creative Officer at Authors on Mission, who has written and edited over 150 books while traveling the globe as a true digital nomad.

🔹 Humanization is the Next Competitive Edge:
With more AI-generated content than ever, the demand for “humanized” writing—real stories, personal anecdotes, and tailored voices—is skyrocketing. Human editors are essential to transform flat AI text into captivating narratives that resonate.

🔹 Transparency and Ethics in Publishing:
There’s a growing push for transparency around AI usage. Platforms like Amazon KDP now require authors to disclose AI involvement, and major publications frequently reject AI-only submissions. The conversation around ethics and originality is just getting started.
