Help Faded N'Braided get back in Business!

In December of 2020, after surviving an abusive relationship, after losing my baby at birth, after getting rid of the house I worked so hard, to build a growing family that never came to fruition. After swallowing my pride and tucking my tail between my legs and ending up back on my mom's front porch, minus a newborn and a six year old. After battling months of depression, drinking myself to sleep ALL day everyday. After overcoming the withdrawals that come from alcoholism and liver failure. I decided this is NOT ME! But it's making ME! I did a lot of soul searching, I went to church! I PRAYED FOR FORGIVENESS! I was angry, hurt and bitter. The true definition of an "Angry Black Woman". I WAS DEFEATED! I couldn't return to a job that knew my past and I was embarrassed to face people that told me, "I told you so". It was at that moment, ROCK BOTTOM, I decided to JUMP! And I learned I could FLY! I spent months by myself, day in and day out painting and building. I built Faded N'Braided LLC literally off of hard work, sweat and tears. But also out of humility, shame and defeat. After 5 months of work I launched her which would of been my son CaValli's 2nd birthday. It was a hard emotional day but I honestly didn't know any other way I was going to get through it. I spent EVERYTHING I had building this. I literally had $166.87 remaining in my bank account. I didn't have much, but I had FADED N' BRAIDED!! I sent DaVinchi with his Dad for the summer so I can work and launch my brand. I have tried to include everyone on that journey through my videos and stories on social media and I APPRECIATE all the support, but I'm sharing my story because in life I have always been to afraid, ashamed and honestly scared of rejection to ask for help. PRIDEFUL! I put the shop in the shop for many reasons, but mainly because I need a new roof. If you have followed the shops journey you know rain is not in our favor. The wood is soft and quickly deteriorating. She will NEVER make it through the summer. That is my place of business and right now I'm out of business while trying to get it fixed. I'm reaching out to all of you, taking a leap of faith to please donate so we can get my baby back on the road. I knew it was going to be an investment to fix, one Im going to work hard to achieve, but all my life I've been told to use my resources. There are people out here that love and support you and want to see you shine! You all are my people! And I'm your people! I love and appreciate all of you! Following my dreams, figuring out this thing called life, and sharing the journey as I go!! This was hard, but opening up I feel relieved and FREE!!!! Just breathe! We got this!!!
