Hey BBWO...
I know I have some hard working, hard struggling, hard living and loving sistas on this network. In between paying the bills and building your business, how about your sit down right here and tell your testimony.
Here is mine: I'm a brooklyn girl with a lot of dreams. I never wanted to be a corporate girl so I sacrificed my web skills to work in a non-for profit job I loved. I paid the bills and worked hard but always wanted more. When I got pregnant, I quit my job and turned my side hustle into a full time gig. I went through my savings in 2 months flat and then struggled to make $500 bucks a month. Thank God I moved from BKLYN to NC where the cost of living is lower and I could afford to keep at my dream. For months we shuffled bills and prayed hard and cried harder, but the laughs and the nights huddled on the couch are all that I truly remember. Out of that struggle I built my business that brings me in thousands of dollars every month. I'm making it happen now, more and more each day. It isn't easy now and it was definitely even harder then. But I stick with it, I count my blessings, and keep the faith! If you want to make it... make it. No excuses.
