## Help Me Turn Pain Into Purpose Through Music My name is Big Extra, and music became my way of surviving when life tried to break me. I’m a mother of four originally from Buffalo now building a new future in Atlanta after overcoming one of the hardest chapters of my life — surviving a domestic violence relationship and starting over on my own. There were moments I didn’t know how I would make it. I’ve faced heartbreak, struggles, financial setbacks, disappointment, and many ups and downs while trying to rebuild my life and protect my children. But through everything, I kept rising. I kept believing in myself, my purpose, and the dream I have carried for years. Music became more than a passion for me — it became healing, strength, and a voice for everything I survived. Every song tells a piece of my story, my resilience, and my determination to create a better future for my children while inspiring others who may feel broken or unheard. Today, I’m raising funds for artist development services and the creation of a professional EP that will be pitched to major companies, platforms, and movie opportunities. This is a major step toward turning years of hard work into something real, lasting, and life-changing. The donations will help cover: • Professional studio time • Production and engineering • Marketing and promotion • Lodging and travel expenses • Vocal coaching and artist development • Resources needed to professionally complete and pitch my EP This opportunity could open doors for performances, partnerships, placements, and career-changing opportunities that would not only impact my life, but also help me inspire and uplift others through my story and music. Right now, I’m not only asking for shares — I truly need donors who believe in dreams, resilience, and second chances. Every contribution, no matter the amount, helps me continue this journey and gets me closer to building stability, success, and generational change for my family. If my story touches your heart, I ask you to support me and invest in my journey. Thank you for believing in me, my music, and the future I’m fighting to create. ❤️
