Happy New Year to all of my Twitter friends! One of my goals this year is to expand my business in financial education & planning for 2 reasons.
1. I want to build my savings for my upcoming move for grad school
2. I want to help as many people in the US and Canada as I can 🧵
Tomorrow at 9am PST, my business will be hosting an open house where you will learn who we are, what we do and what might be in it for you.
If you are looking for an opportunity, you need no experience just a will to learn along with integrity.
If you want to plan for your
financial goals, we provide financial needs analysis and ongoing support at no hourly cost. I have gotten so much value in now having an emergency fund for the first time in working with my financial coach who I consider a mentor
I realize that as a Black Disabled woman, I can’t
grow what I don’t share. If you do set up a financial plan with us, you would be supporting a Black & disabled owned business.
If you know anyone who could benefit from an opportunity and/or learning how to make their money work for them, I would love any referrals.
Please DM
me if you are interested in attending our event tomorrow or if you want to refer someone to me.
There is never any pressure to join or to start a plan with us. We provide a survey at the end of each introductory meeting to learn what is the next best step for you.
Please feel free to retweet this thread to help me reach more people.
I have a long story and advice needed because I think I lost funding along the way this day because of one teacher and surprising me a mandatory attendance requirement then accusing of academic dishonesty less than 3 hours to the deadline @dismhmatters@DisInHigherEd 1/
December 1st and I felt like I had all the support in the world to succeed. So much people edited for me provided feedback, I was calm and ready to finalize my applications that day to submit by 8:59pm on December 1st since SOPHAS is on EST and I noticed a note that funding 2/
couldn’t be guaranteed if you don’t submit by December 1st. The afternoon and I have a 0/6 for an assignment, dropping me in a major class from a B to a C. I look at the group assignment my name is on it, the TA comment says sorry you had to miss this one. I commented that I 3/
I am so excited to announce my 1st first author publication of my protocol for my "Systematic Review of Universal Preventive Interventions Designed to Improve Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Health in Children Under the Age of 13." Let me share more 1/
Our review question is: Does implementation of universal preventive interventions in family, community, health care, and school settings with recipients from birth to 12 years old avert the development of mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders later in life? 2/
This question is important as a child's environment can have life long impacts. I noticed so much research focusing on selective interventions in children at high risk or indicated intervention in children engaging in high risk behaviors. Children that look fine, may not be 3/
Yes #MoodMonday can be a thing! #PsychTwitter, do you want to help make this a thing with me? Three emotions: Hopeful, grateful and confused. What three emotions on your mind? Nope, I am going thread 🧵 life here because sometimes you need more than 3 emotions when mental 1/
health and disability have been kept divided. I live with Fibromyalgia and PTSD. The things that trigger my PTSD almost immediately lead to my Fibromyalgia causing me intense pain. The uncontrollable pain of the Fibromyalgia triggers memories of the uncontrollable nature 2/
(CW: Abuse) of being in an abusive marriage, being raped and watching daily deaths rise. This is like a living nightmare and somehow, I need to come up with an eloquent personal statement and write one of my letters of recommendation for a letter writer. I need to do so much 3/
Thank you again @riley_ilyse for inviting me to guest lecture in your course. Speaking on intersectionality and inclusion on disability in higher ed was amazing. Watching a Zoom webinar afterwords of an Angela Davis event, the joy turned to despair as disability was left out. 1/
There is a Black healing space afterwords, but there is no healing in those spaces for me. I mention Black and Disabled. I have said words that don’t belong together, that don’t make sense, that evokes a reality that they don’t want to realize. We don’t fit in that truth 2/
Black people are raised up strong and resilient because of everything we face in racism. Brought over as slaves we work twice as hard to get the same rights and opportunities as white people. I work twice as hard because I am a woman, yet 3/
