All that squishy personal stuff putting yourself out there matters. As I've talked about, those are the individual actions that years and decades later turns into the big announcements and the big wins. (video version here)

That's what the base of the iceberg is all about. The last two messages (1,2) that I sent out were about where to start with that, sharing your perspective, finding a new job, offering skills, or getting help.

You went for it! All across AirMiners Slack, I saw people going for it so wanted to highlight them. I hope you can connect with these folks and get inspired to put yourself out there too.

• Jack Sullivan wrote his analysis of an article and summarized in three points about the future challenges of biomass. Love to see this kind of analysis included.
• Lubica Hanacek wrote that her startup Azolla is raising funds on WeFunder to make textiles out of carbon dioxide. She highlighted how air miners Natalie, James, Daniela, and Jason had all helped in her quest to get to this point. (Did you see the AirMiners angel investor survey Jason posted last week?)
• Alana Bradley offered skills as strategy consultant working on ESG with a background in mechanical engineering.
• Jethro Odom led the ReFi Summit and is looking to move into the carbon removal industry
• Grant Faber put himself out there for pro-bono help assessing economic and environmental performance for new carbon removal technologies, DM him to set up a session. He's been instrumental in helping 28+ teams with their technoeconomic assessment as part of all 4 batches of AirMiners Launchpad. 
• Giulia Castleberg asked for tips on writing cover letters and understanding strengths and weaknesses.

Have something to add to one of these topics? All the threads are linked above.

These examples show "putting yourself out there" can be easy. Where so many of us get stuck is trying to look smart and that we know how everything works. We've got gigatons of carbon dioxide to dance with. So put yourself out there, share your thoughts on an article, offer up a skill, connecting with a job, and ask for help with a problem. (Yes, "and").

It's days, months, and years of these individual actions that turn into those with those big developments you see in the news. It all starts here so dive in already.
