1 month update on my two strand twist starter locs journey. The first month has been rough, I am getting my first retwist !

I have pictures and some videos but I am also talking about the challenges I faced during this 1st month.
Please don't forget to like, comment and subscribe ! I will be documenting this journey.

    Beautiful young resilient sister, I hope things have picked up by now. Praying for you! I am a macro level social worker. I am similarly situated too with one son who is 20 now. Let me know if you'd ever like to touch base and encourage each other along in this crazy life. You are a good mom and you will have a great career. Keep moving forward!

    Is there a reason you can not get the license of social work? Are you having trouble passing the test?? Is it a matter of that you need to take additional courses? You're at an impasse that may be resolved if you take your test and get the license. Sadly, there's no guarantee that even then, but I think you'd be in a better situation once you have it. Good luck

    I know this video was made 2 years ago, and this is my first time visiting your channel. I'm pretty should all the viewers you are receiving, receiving funds from RUclips now. But I want you to know, life will get better, just have to believe, and have faith in yourself. I'm 56 years old mom, of a 15 years old Autism daughter, that I gave birth too, when I was 40 years old. When I was 25 years old, I came across a 21 years old single mother of one child than. Next following year, that same woman I speak of, had another child, wish was a girl too. When I move to Oregon in the middle 90's, with my daughter father, when he bid on a contract, that lead him down there, I started talking to the woman, my daughter father was sleeping with behind my back, at the time. One morning, she called to our apartment motel, while living in Oregon, to speak to me. From what I took from our conversation now, not than, was a strong black woman, who knew what she wanted, out of life. She told me, reason she had her children at an early age, by 2 different men, because it wasn't guaranteed she was every gone getting marry. And thats why she had her children out of wed lock. Now this same woman I speak of, is now 50 years old, and both of her daughters are grown, and marry. This woman is now a grandmother, too 2 girls. Reason I'm bringing this up, want you to know, you have a college degree, that will open the right door, that god has for you. And you will place your son in the right child care, of god choice, when he is ready. Everything you have work for, will happen, just have to have faith, and believe. Never put yourself down, and think, what you gone to school for, were all a waste, because it wasn't. You see, that 50 years old woman, I know of, has a college degree, wish I never knew she had gone to finish her education, to better her life, for herself and 2 daughters. Her name is Lawanda ,who told me, how she save up to purchase her first house, when she was in her 20's,took her income tax money, and save it, from her mom , grandmom and aunt request. Since you have many viewers now, , I want you to take your funds, once you get your income from RUclips, and save it, to buy you a house.. For your son too. Don't worry if your son father not paying child support, just let the court handle him. You just worry about making a better life, for you and your son. Last year, I purchase my first house, at age of 55 years, as a single mother. And feel good I've done it, without a man in my life. That little ass child support I receive from his ass, is nothing, compare what I receive from Social Securty Disability, and Bio Plasma weekly, I give to make money, for a better life, for me and my daughter.

I was encouraged by fam to get master to social work and ran into the same problem. I was dependent on my family. I felt worthless and a burden. Don’t apologize for crying. Door did open up. I started out as a TSS, caseworker, to crisis hotline worker.

    I totally understand you as I am in the same boat. I have been working in a job where I am overqualified and underemployed. I have my kids and I am also divorced. I have dealt with lots of health issues and very little support. I have been applying for a long time to get a full-time job. It's frustrating. Also, the fact that I don't even qualify for student loan forgiveness really sucks. People with full time jobs are getting their loans paid off!! I want to be financially independent and to work to earn a living wage. I hope that your situation has turned around for the better.

    Apply to county or government jobs. It's a long process but it meets requirements to your qualifications. Also, it is always easier to get in when you know someone within the industry(network). Has for any job hospitality and healthcare (certificate) jobs are always in need. Lastly, omitting some of your degrees may be necessary. Stay blessed!

  • @AshleyyMonètt
    @AshleyyMonètt 2 года назад

    Oils do not grow your hair . Yess it can nourish your hair and seal in moisture which can help with the process of hair growth but it’s not the key to any and everything. Things like moisturizers, leave-in conditioners, and good shampoos help with hair growth. Oil is just a good way to keep in moisture. So just oiling your scalp with nothing on it isn’t doing much of anything.

    Keep grinding, I have five degrees (3 Associates and 2 bachelors) working on my masters now, and I've already seen the over qualified message from non-profit agencies. I'm starting my own non-profit agency, and am going into business for myself. You've got this. The MSW is very useful, have you considered becoming a Case Manager to start off? Direct Care jobs at group homes dont pay a lot, but they are a solid income with the overtime that's readily available. I'm from Connecticut, but I'm sure things will work out where you are. Keep pushing 💪
