Yesterday, I lost my job. I am doing ok, but it does feel weird. It makes me feel like I don’t deserve to be happy.

A long time ago, I got semi-involved with a voodoo doctor, and changed my mind about the whole thing… . And he cursed me that someday my life would fall apart. I’ve never forgotten that. Some days I really believe that curse was real.

Are you going to punch that asshole inner dialogue in the mouth or do you need me to do it for you?

Thanks friend. I need to build up some muscle to punch that jerk, for sure.

I gotta gym. Can help with muscle. What field are you in? We can see about helping with job leads

Thank you.

I’ve historically worked in Account Management and Client Services, with some marketing background. I am currently back in school for a counseling certification and want to become involved with non profits, with an eventual goal of becoming a substance abuse counselor or at least doing support work in that field.

I want to help people.

I have a friend who is a substance abuse counselor now- DM me your number and I can connect you. Also, check out Safe Bars RVA - maybe they can also connect you with your background and desire to help moving forward.

I’ve been trying to get a Richmond chapter of https://www.iheardyou.org going to! Would love to partner with them.
