    When people do story times on RUclips, it gets boring if they don't add other clips or take you through the journey visually. But with you, even if you're just talking to the camera, I can imagine what you're saying so that makes you an amazing storyteller! Great job!

    Girl! It was a sign I found your video. Since 2 years I started to work on my own small cosmetic business working hard to make money to create own ingredients. A lot of mistakes I made this time, one day I were in totally big black hole doesn't know what next, spend all of savings I were resigned but I have to back with my motivation as I had from beginning. Always start is the hardest. I know, I will not give up. Thank you for this video you're such a good girl. Send you all love, take care ❤❤ PS. I am Polish too from Katowice 🥰

    Your video just popped up on my home page, today. I'm currently re-launching my scrunchie business, and your story resonated alot with me, because I launched it last year and I only had one sale haha :( And I did ALOT of work: marketing research, learn how to sew scrunchies (their handmade by me), learn about new tools on social media, learn notion app, film content, edit, take photos, etc, etc. I also felt like a failure. So I gave up on it for a few months aswell.
    Right now I'm making new content and changing my strategy, and I promised myself that this year I would give everything to my business, and I would not give up, no matter what. 😊
    Subscribed to your channel cause I loved your story, thanks for sharing ❤ Made me feel like I'm not the only one going through this :)!

    Every crash /collapse/inflation or a recession offers an equal market opportunity if you are well prepared and knowledgeable. I've seen people accumulate up to $800,000 during crises and even pull it off with ease in a bad economy. Without a doubt, the bubble or crash has made someone extremely wealthy.

      A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. he's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
