My birthday is in 10 days and things have been rough, tbh. If anyone wants to make it better, please consider asking me about how I might be able to help you, either as a private tutor or life coach. DM me for details. Otherwise, consider making my day brighter with a gift. https://ko-fi.com/stephenjw

Incidentally, as a life coach, it's my job to be your partner in believing for your most ambitious dreams. Life is too short and too precious to settle for less. If you're looking for someone to believe in you, and tell you that they believe in you, sign up for a free strategy session. The belief and words of support are a free service I'm happy to offer for free whether or not you decide to enroll. I'll even give you some of that now. If you're reading this, I believe in you. I believe you deserve the best life has to offer.

$2,903/$8,000 It's been a frustrating month. I'm getting something back from the IRS, a third of which will be going to state taxes, but the remainder should give me a moment to catch my breath, assuming they process it soon.

You know what I would love? You know what would make my life seem truly awesome and magical? I would absolutely love to connect with those people I'm here to serve. I would love to reach those people who are ready to invest in themselves and work towards changing those things that are well within their power to change. I would love to do the work my heart longs to do, that my soul is here to do. I would love to find the right people.

$2,643/$8,000 Alright, so, the guy I met with yesterday, I had a great conversation with, but he is still in the early funding stages and looking into accelerator programs. After the experience I had with the startup last year, I appreciate his honesty and transparency. It was a good connection to make, and I hope we can work together in the future. In more exciting news, I'll be having coffee with a reporter on Sunday. But, yeah, still could use some help, or clients, or leads, or something. I will schedule some workshops again soon. I slipped away from doing that because life was happening, and it was discouraging not having people sign up. And I still need to file taxes.

Still at $2,618/$8,000. The guy I do tech work for on the regular now paid me in food again. I've been asked to provide transport for a blind parishioner for Good Friday and Easter Sunday, so the church will be compensating me for that, and another guy I help run his weekly meditation group has started compensating me for my help weekly, so I'm expecting another $75 altogether in the next week. I'm also meeting with a guy tomorrow about a startup he has, seems like a promising connection.

$2618/$8000 Had to borrow more money for legal representation and other bills. Someone for whom I do regular computer support work is on a fixed budget and his rent is going up soon. I agreed he could pay me in food this week. I had a bit of unexpected income of $25 for zoom hosting a meditation group. I'm looking for clients and other work, gig or otherwise. Still hanging in there but this year has been challenging, and it's only March.

@mutualaid@fedigroups.social Still at $2,238/$8,000 This has been a very challenging week, and I'm tired. I've got some work today. Guy is paying cash; it probably won't be much, but it's something and I'm thankful. I'll update the total this evening. I'll see what else I can secure and what else I can force myself to do. Please help.

$2,238/$8,000 So, I've gone back to contracting for a company that has not treated their contractors (including myself) well in the past. I'm doing this because it's a way of getting quick cash flow. Pay is not good (about 1/4 of what it was when they first lured me into working for them), but they are blowing up my inbox and they pay weekly and they always have something I can do. I could use a real urgent boost right about now. I've been dodging overdraft fees as much as I can, but it's getting difficult. I'm doing what I can where I can when I can. Please help if you are able.

$2188/$8000 I've got some work lined up, and I'm making myself work on videos to increase my visibility: I've uploaded the first video in the series I'm doing. YouTube was taking its sweet time processing, so I scheduled it as a premiere for 6 pm EDT (UTC-4). If you are interested, you can catch it here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_E7DTzmz7I

$1,968/$8,000 Things are slowly trickling in and picking up, but we could still use some help. I'll post a more detailed update soon, and I finally pushed past whatever it was that was holding me back from doing that video series, so I'll be getting that up real soon.
