The Fresh Five for December 28(29?) - New Steemians you should get to know!

Depending on the part of the world you are in, this is either the Fresh Five for December 28th (Which is still is, barely, for me) or for December 29th. Take it as you will. I'm in Indiana celebrating the holidays with my family, so time was at a premium.

Broke a couple of rules on this one, not that I really have any rules, and if I did, they'd be made to be broken anyway. But we're also setting a record with four of the five introductions today being female content creators. I keep seeing crypto twitter talking about the lack of female crypto investors. I keep saying Steem is proving them wrong, but I don't have a very loud Twitter voice, so I am easily brushed aside. Anyhow, let's get on with it.

If you missed the initial post and want to learn about the process I am using to select the daily five, please check out The First Post in the Series. In that post you will find the first five Steemians I chose, as well as the methods used to find them.

I hope you will help me welcome these Steemians to the Platform! If you would like to support this work, please click on some of the links below and visit new Steemians to make them welcome!!

Let's Get to Today's 5

Introducing a Modern Woman. Let's get right to the first rule break of the day with Hive account@valerie15. Valerie caught my eye with a different post than her introduction, which brought me around to her introduction post from four days ago. Naughty Val used the introduceyourself tag twice! Naughty Naughty young lady. LOL. The picture above comes from her newer post Kickass Ways to write your introduction post which implied that her original introduction post was in some way bad. I went back and read the original post and find nothing wrong with it. This particular line is a nice summary of why you should go visit and give her a follow:

is a dreamer, a writer , risk taker and a young woman from the Philippines.

Introducing the Unicorn with 7 Kids. Right in to Rule Break #2 as we meet Hive account@sweetsarcasm. Had i seen her intro post when I was looking on Tuesday, she probably would have knocked out one of the five who made the list (sorry guys!). But I didn't. In fact, I found her when I was doing a different search entirely. Looking for Curie content to nominate I found her post Why do guys always try to have sex with me. While I wasn't able to nominate the post for Curie, she did make me curious to visit her blog, with a name like SweetSarcasm, how could I not? While I am not entirely sure I have ever encountered the term Unicorn the way she uses it, I do admire her for taking in seven children to raise who are not her own. Go check out her story in her blog posts!

Excited Real Estate Investor and Blogger. We interrupt the influx of female power to Steem with the one guy to hit the list today in Hive account@investfourmore. He's already a successful investor and Real Estate flipper, he's also in on Crypto. He sees the use case for Steem and wants to be a part of it. Oh, and he already owns the lambo, among other vehicles you'll see a picture of on his post. If he is as successful here as he is in his other ventures, I think he may make it to whale status before a lot of us who have been here longer!

Welcome to my little big world. From Poland to Barcelona, Hive account@k-a-s-i-a has lived in two very beautiful cities. She earned her law degree but decided that being a lawyer would not make her happy. I don't know what schooling is like over in Europe, but here in the states you go to school for a LONG time to become a lawyer, so to give it up is a pretty big deal! But that is what Kasia did, and now she is seeking her path. Head over and give her a follow and enjoy her posts as she explores the path to happiness!

Thrilled to be in a community that gives back. So aside from wearing Link proudly in her first picture posted to Steemit, I will let Jamee do the talking for herself:

I am a wolf mother, psychonaut, artist, queen of all wild things and a lover of the arts. I study gemology and I am in love with crystalline structures. I am a rockhound and collector of mineral specimen. I love outdoor adventures and concurring new heights. I live in a great state that offers lots of sunshine, adventure and old tales. Who doesn't love a good story, I have lots of them and I am excited to share them here with you!

Please don't believe me when I say she shares a little bit of all of this in the rest of her post, go over and find out for yourself. Looking forward to the stories and adventures Jamee has to share with us on her blog!!

Both of the above listed groups are great, and have loads of very helpful people. But because they are newer organizations, it can sometimes be quiet in those chat rooms. If you want a little more help RIGHT NOW, then what you need is The Minnow Support Project. MSP/PAL is made up of over 7000 Steemians whose main goal is to help each other climb the ladder from minnow to whale. 24 hours a day there are people there to chat with you. So if you want to jump right in to the waters, head to the MSP Discord at: https://discord.gg/FdvSPNT

The brainchild of Hive account@inquiringtimes is the Welcoming Committee and a set of contests that are sponsored by some great witnesses: Hive account@reggaemuffin, Hive account@aggroed, Hive account@ausbitbank & Hive account@swelker101. These fine folks have put 700 STEEM and a Steem Power Delegation up for Steemians who make it their mission to help new Steemians by creating tools for new Steemians to use as almost a guidebook to Steem. The Fourth Contest Was just announced, and if you are able to create images, this one is for you. Top Two Contestants will each receive 20 Steem each, with 6 additional 10 Steem prizes. So please go over and show your support for this great project!

Thanks for reading!!
