Buddy Rasberry

After years of working as a signage and display lead, I recently found myself at a crossroads. I was told to train myself out of my position for a new Audio/Visual marketing role, but when that opportunity never materialized and my team became self-sustaining, I was unexpectedly let go. While the layoff was a shock, I had already begun to feel the need for change. I had just released two new songs and started planning more creative endeavors, so in many ways, the timing felt right—even if it was difficult. Now, I am more confident than ever that it's time to step fully into my calling as a creative and a coach for other performers and artists. I want to dedicate myself to helping others find their voice and stage presence, while also doubling down on producing my own music and live shows. This transition is both exciting and daunting, but I know it's the right path for me. I'm seeking support to cover my basic living expenses for the next two months. This will give me the freedom to pour my time and energy into building my client base, producing new music, and supporting fellow creatives—without the immediate pressure of financial instability. Anyone who supports me during this time will be an essential co-producer in this new chapter. Your contribution, no matter the size, will help me lay the foundation for a sustainable and impactful career as a creative and coach. Thank you for believing in me and being part of this journey.
