If you're feeling stuck, scared or unsure about what to do next and just want to talk to a real person, I'd love to chat. I know what it's like to need money now and feel like my only option would be to go back to the workplace. Send me an email at stephrbrinkley@gmail.com or schedule a free call with me here.
