My Story
Hi, I’m reaching out with the most honest words I’ve ever written.
I never imagined I’d start a GoFundMe. But today, I’m at a point where I feel like I’m drowning—and I need help.
I’m an immigrant, a woman in tech, a passionate athlete, and a mental health advocate with a Master’s degree in Psychology. I’ve spent my life putting others first—helping people thrive, supporting individuals with special needs, rescuing animals, and mentoring women in fitness and wellness.
But now, I’m struggling to stay afloay
My Dream
For years, I’ve been working—quietly but relentlessly—on building a wellness tech platform focused on helping women who are battling mental health challenges, fitness struggles, and burnout. I’ve done the research, invested the time, and created a plan.
This isn’t just an idea. It’s my life’s purpose.
But despite working an intense full-time job and giving everything I have, I’m exhausted. Financially, emotionally, and mentally.
Why I Need Help
Right now, I’m facing:
• Severe burnout and depression that have left me wondering if I can keep going
• The rising costs of living in a new country as an immigrant
• Unexpected medical bills for my beloved (and very sick) cats
• A dream I want to launch—but zero funds left to make it happen
I’ve hit rock bottom. Some days, I question if my life is worth living anymore. But a part of me still believes there’s a future—if I can just get through this moment.
What Your Support Will Do
Your donation will help me:
• Cover essential living costs and emergency vet care
• Begin development on my tech platform for women’s mental and physical wellness
• Take the time I need to heal, recover, and get back to doing what I love: helping others
Every single contribution, no matter how small, is a light in my darkest days. It’s a message that says, “You matter. Keep going.”
My Promise to You
If you support me:
• I’ll be transparent about how the funds are used
• I’ll share regular updates and progress on both my personal journey and my tech project
• I’ll continue to mentor and uplift others who are in the same place I’m in now
Final Words
This isn’t easy to write. But I believe vulnerability is strength. And I believe that with a little support, I can turn this low point into something meaningful—for myself and for others.
If you’ve ever felt like you couldn’t keep going, you know how much just one act of kindness can mean.
Thank you for reading.
Thank you for seeing me.
Thank you for believing in what I still hope I can become
