Let's catch up ♡ Losing my barista job, small business overwhelm, late ADHD diagnosis

This video is a much needed catch up with you all. This past year has been a lot. In this sketch with me, podcast-style video, I delve into some of the key things that have happened the past year.

I had to say goodbye to my barista job, even though I loved it.

I tried to cope with the constant changes that were happening in the world that were impacting small art businesses like mine. (It got the best of me).

I tried to take on a new job to help me fund my own small business and it started out well- but it all crashed and burned in the end with toxic management.

And just shortly after turning 30 years old; I found out the true reason why my brain is the way that it is- and how knowing it now, changes everything.

Side note:
I recorded different parts of the voice-over over the course of the past year so it ended up having a very strange, somewhat serendipitous ending when all the parts came together lol.
Little did I know!!
