Why I started a side hustle…

Because groceries are disrespectfully expensive.

$190 on a few things..

I was over being stressed + complaining so I did something about it. I gave myself a raise to fight inflation and now I’m at peace. I’m increased my income instead of pinching Penny’s and cutting back on things we love.

I talk about this so much because nowadays it’s no longer an option for many irs a necessity to supplement one’s income. It’s uncomfortable for some talk about but everyone is suffering as a whole these days. If I can help direct 1 person the right way so they improve their life I’ll be happy!
