DreamFreely

Where it all begins ...

Hello, my name is Canin Carlos; and I'm building DigiSnaxx, while teaching English in Colombia. I was adopted from Colombia to the United States, and I left the US because it wasn't safe for me to remain.

I have a love for data and DigiSnaxx is an old dream come-to-life.

Every week I publish a recap of the US Department of Defense, now called the Department of War, contract announcements and highlights.

While DigiSnaxx also houses directories of events in various communities around the world. Trying to keep a balance.

All support for this work is being returned to this work; as I am able to teach enough classes to cover my basic bills (rent, healthcare, food).

My first goal is to be able to pay Mamo's rent, until we are able to find a more permanent place to live.

The following collection of products are available:

Membership

Subscriptions are available for individuals and businesses.

Individual subscriptions start a $6 per year; while business subscriptions start at $120 per year, $250/year with advertising included.

While DigiSnaxx.com/contracts does not have advertisements, the event listings do, and I'd love the excuse to start cataloging public events in your locale.

All revenue is made transparent through the Open Data page.

Let's Go !!!

Regarding individual accounts, for the first 500 subscribers, you are the alpha-team with advanced access to all products, and projects; and the following 1,000 subscribers are the beta-team, confirm, deny or improve the alpha-team's findings.

Personal Diversity Plan

For those ready to step-into, and embrace, a more diverse reality, we co-create your Personal Diversity Plan to see and embrace diversity through the lens of deep knowledge of self; and build a concrete-sequential plan from this new-found structural awareness to expand your community.

We meet for 60 minutes or more, during which we will walk through the Manifesting Empathy framework as it applies to your individual life experience.

After this we will share nominal banter, while I discern your root aspirations, capacity and direction; from which we collaborate about where you might go next, and how.

You exit the conversation with a quantitative action-plan, including specific next-steps; and I follow up with more written details within 36 hours.

You can pick up the Manifesting Empathy booklet for free at shop.dreamfreely.org.

The booklet provides a more in-depth illustration of the Manifesting Empathy framework.

The next step being to read Diversity Inverted for a US-based, macro-level perspective of these conversations, as they pertain to identity-based demographics.

Exo-CTO I

For those in need of dependable tech-adept cultural support; I am available up-to ten hours per week via monthly subscription.

At the end of each week and month, you will be provided a written review of the work accomplished, as well as additional thoughts for consideration, going forward.

From cultural liaison and macro-level consultation work to content creation, strategy mapping and digital portfolio management, I provide clarity and increasing peace of mind by providing exceptionally professional technical and executive support.

Together we discern where to start and how to go, creating a preliminary/foundational outline so that we are on the same page with-respect-to aspirations and expectations; and from here we build.

Goals

There are definite monthly goals, as I treat DreamFreely like a business, in my own way.

I greatly enjoy teaching English, and will continue doing so; it is an opportunity to practice business fundamentals of providing a known product excellently. Which carries over into the rest of my work, and provides a foundational economic cushion upon which to grow.

$500 per month

To start off, making $500 / month comfortably pays for Mamo's rent, family healthcare and food, along with utilities,each month.

$1500 per month

This will enable me to comfortably work on DreamFreely full-time (25 hours / week); though I will continue to teach English classes. Five-hundred dollars will be shared with Mamo.

Additionally, I will be able to add individual accounts to DigiSnaxx, so that users may customize their events lists.

$2500 per month

At this level I will also be able to add API keys and expand the project to include the sibling domain DataSnaxx. All members will be given an API with which they can programmatically access our database. You will also be able to donate your API allotment to organizations or individuals who are learning to code.

One-thousand dollars will be shared with Mamo.

$5000 per month

Mamo and I will each receive the equivalent of $2,000USD to do our allotted work.

All revenue generated after this will be reinvested back in to the work.

We will begin hiring support staff to help manage all aspects of the DigiSnaxx, Manifesting Empathy and DreamFreely work.

While I flagrantly post on LinkedIn, though am getting better about it 😋

I don't post much on Instagram, mainly use it to harvest content.

Same for Bluesky; though DigiSnaxx has a Bluesky account too.
