Hi friends, family, and community,

I don't ask for help easily, but my body is making it very clear right now that I need to stop and listen to it.

I've been navigating some serious health challenges that have flared back up, and the physical demands of my work as a pet sitter & housecleaner have been making things significantly worse. I have absolutely loved being a pet sitter and I enjoy serving others by helping make their homes sparkle, but I'm getting burned out after having done it for 38 years. It is very physically demanding work and very taxing on my nervous system. Plus it all takes precious energy from me that I would love to channel into more aligned projects.

I've been going back and forth on how to transition into a different line of work, but now my body is telling me in no uncertain terms that I need time to rest and recover rather than continue to push through the pain. I'm not able to work in a traditional office setting due to my severe sensitivity to EMF radiation, and I've been actively searching for remote virtual assistant work that I can do from home on my own terms.

I am also a healer walking on the plant & herbal medicine path and wanting to transition into consulting and life coach work.

I'm hopeful a path will open up soon, but right now I need a bridge to get there.

I'm raising $3,000 to cover all of the basics while I rest and get my health stable: rent is due on the 10th, my car insurance, my cell phone, gas, and wellness needs. On top of all of this, some unexpected car repairs have come up that I simply can't put off. Having reliable transportation isn't optional for me right now. It's what keeps me able to get to health care appointments and handle the day to day essentials of life. The timing couldn't be harder.

If even 50 people gave $10, it would make a meaningful difference. Every single contribution counts.

I'm not asking to be rescued forever. I just need a few months of breathing room so my body + nervous system can recover and I can find work that doesn't cost me my health.

I have spent my life showing up for others, and now I humbly find myself needing that same support in return.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for reading this and for any support you're able to offer.

With so much gratitude,

Sequoyah <3
