Listen to your body!
This morning as I sat there working, after that 30-minute workout, I thought I was dying, and not from working out either. I felt I was dying due to the fact I had consumed so much caffeine in 24 hours, at least 4 times what I normally consume, and my body didn’t know how to handle it.

My Journey through Traditional Publishing
September, 2018. I had been part of this writing group for about nine months at this point. I had been part of the secret, paid sister group that was all about really pushing writers to understand and love ourselves as women and writers but it felt more for the newbies than for someone like me who had first put pen (crayon) to paper during a “quiet time” session in the first grade.

The Fall & Rise of a Working Girl
Have you ever had a job where you know for a fact you're being taken advantage of but just couldn't say no? Well that was my life for a solid 7 years. It all started when a clueless girl (being myself) walked into a production company looking for a job, not realizing my worth just yet. I landed my very first job in the amazing NYC, I was excited and eager to learn. "Look mom I have a salary now!" Which was BARE MINIMUM for everything I was doing.

two weeks installing security cameras and card readers
For two weeks I worked this job which required me to install security cameras and card readers. The objective was simple: install the cameras and readers. However, security cameras need cabling to work, so we had to run cable across the drop ceiling with poles called 'glow rods'. The idea is to run the cable across the drop ceiling from where the camera or reader is going to be installed to the utility closet where the power box is, or vice versa (from the box to the camera). Either way, you’re going to be in pain. That's why they hire idiots like me.

Brain Fog ~ Short Temperament Getting You Down?
When I mentally and physically shut down, there isn’t any way that I can be productive. I am a one-person small business, and I pride myself on doing quality work, working through client issues, & being accessible.

A Very Unprofessional Resignation That I Still Don't Regret
After years working in for-profit healthcare and seeing all the issues that the profit-driven policies bring, I moved to work in the non-profit sector with an eagerness that I didn’t know at the time was naïve.

Thinking About Gig Work While You are Dealing With a Disability?
Let me start off by saying, I'm a delivery driver for a delivery gig platform, it's a pretty fun experience - but it's still not for everyone. I decided to sign up one day to deliver for this platform because their ad popped up on a website, and I really needed to grow my work ethic. I am a disabled individual, and I am tired of living without things that I need - and want. I had been sitting in a depressed state for quite some time, but I found this gig helps me get out of my depression for a little while. When I go and deliver people their food on my own schedule I am optimistic I will not fail.
