Before, I would supplement my income by working delivery jobs like Spark and DoorDash, but right now it’s not feasible. Between working full time and going to school full time (I have to in order to survive/get financial aid), I feel like I can barely keep my head above water

I recognize that even so, I have it so much better than others. And that’s why things need to change. I have it better than so many others and I’m still struggling.

It’s taken a month and a half to save $375 and I’m having to do gig work on top of my full time job all week next week to cover bills (usually that’s what goes into savings).

Disclaimer, I have only been doing this a year in May.

I know I’m not the only one feeling guilty for being happy for personal wins, but I needed to say it somewhere. I hope I’m not screaming into the void, and even if there aren’t responses to this, please know you are seen and you aren’t alone!
