Hi Fam!

I did the Wednesday live this morning and wiggled and wobbled my way through. Marnie’s words about showing up when we are messy immediately made me think of a post on insta, shared here. Our messy makes us who we are!

Hi Fam! Some of you saw my post earlier this week about being embarrassed to ask for help and admit that I’m struggling…

well, today I lost my job at the salon 😞

Finally catching up with the Cinco Live - first time using the new ball! 💕 Great workout and Happy May 🌷🌹

Sharing this book because it is just everything during any life phases!! Highly suggest if anyone is in need of a daily read 💕

Upper body strength has never been a, uh, strength of mine, so when I arrived in this wonderful community during deep lockdown and resorted to soup cans (ok ok, tomato paste cans), I was able to tell myself I was starting at a reasonable place given the circumstances. Some time later (we don’t need to get into specifics), I moved from my 8oz pasties to whopping 14.5oz diced tomatoes. That’s right. Don’t be intimidated - you too can have a vegetable-based workout. Today, almost half way through my third year as an M/Body subscriber I finally took the plunge and treated myself to real, big girl weights! Not quite sure how to feel about being able to fit my hand all the way around my weights, but know for sure I’ll be missing the familiar sloshing sound during those straight-arm shakes at the end of weight sections! 😂

… 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)

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!!

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 😭
