M/body fam, I truly at a loss right now, I don’t know what to do, and I’m so embarrassed to admit…I need help.
As some of you may know, I’m a freelance hair and makeup artist. I travel and work on set for film, and I work part-time locally as a receptionist for a salon. My income is purely “gig based,” which means I just have to wait around until I get booked on a high paying gig like a feature film, large bridal party, etc.
Last month, I was MOH in my sister’s wedding . 5 wedding showers, 2 bachelorettes, gas + food + hotels to and from GA 7 times, rental car fees, and other bridal party expenses completely drained my bank account. I haven’t been booked on any gigs since March, and with the recent writer’s strike, there’s no work in sight for me 😭 I’m barely surviving paycheck to paycheck with my part time salon job right now…
All of this has done a number on my already fragile mental health. I’m in recovery for Anorexia nervosa, and am on medication for major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder. In light of May being #MentalHealthMonth, my mental health has taken a HUGE decline and I’ve been having moments where I don’t even want to be alive anymore because it’s just so hard for me to have hope…
I’m humbly asking…if anyone has any odd jobs that I can do remotely? I would be willing to do anything at this point! Or if anyone feels led to help me with gas and groceries, my cashapp is $lissafort or zelle: 5613077105 you guys this was so, so hard to type and truly I’m falling apart 😭
… I got invited to my first group hike - with lots of new people! Two of my oldest friends will be there too 😅 ( no scrambling I promise). I’ll be thinking of the g/fam and my m/ovement ball and challenging my inner caterpillar to think about flying. (Saw a couple little ones yesterday and thought of you guys)

Today is a day I’m filled with a lot of grief, mostly about motherhood. It was a challenge to encourage myself to get to the mat, but I went anyway. Marnie got me in my body. I’m grateful I can also land here, in the community. Motherhood is tough, life is tough, and that’s a beautiful thing. Thank you Marnie and this community for allowing the difficult times to be beautiful for me 💚
Not sure if I’ll make the live today - I sort of strained my wrist on a boulder scramble 😂 A for effort! Was so freeing running around on the big rocks.. I just underestimated the down parts.. scooted down on my bottom a bit.
Love you guys! Xo
I’ve really missed the last few lives as we are in a Walt Disney World and I haven’t been able to move my body past the 23,000 steps/day 🥵). But this pic of my son’s first coaster was too good not to share with you all!!
I was about to send a ‘sorry to miss the live’ message and totally spaced it was at 9!!! What is happening to me?! Lols. My sister in law is visiting and I’m totally off schedule in a very relaxed happy way!
Love you guys! Will do it later. Have a great rest of your day 🤗
The weather where I live is so perfect this afternoon that I had to do my workout outside! Hope everyone is able to take some time to enjoy nature this weekend!!
