Falling apart

I feel like my life is falling apart. I hate to rely on my boyfriend for everything (he’s nice about it tho!) but I just hate it for myself. My credit has gone down so bad because I didn’t mention anything about credit card payments at first when I stopped working. I honestly thought that after baby is like a month old I’ll start working from home but it’s been really hard to find something and also I realised I don’t have time. Also I don’t have a car atm. So now I’m just stuck at home with baby, can’t find a wfh job and idk I just don’t know what to do anymore I cry everyday in the shower.

I understand. I feel so overwhelmed with work and baby. It feels like I never have time for anything and I'm so far behind on everything. I hope it gets better for you. What kind of things do you like to do or are you good at? I think a lot of things could make an online income, maybe you could figure out something

@Kate It needs to be nothing with phone . (Baby is 3months old now) and it needs to be a flexible schedule so there isn’t that much.. I could do anything tbh, I have a degree in graphic design I wanted to start doing that but also don’t know where to find customers, and who needs a graphic designer these days with AI!

@Kate do you work full time with baby?

Well I don't know where you live but there's sooo many people in the us that still just don't know how to do much on a computer! There's a lot of people over 40 who either don't know or don't care to learn how to do lots of things like graphic design, web design, etc. So they probably will not be using AI. Hmmm...you could make stuff for etsy like custom cards or framed graphic art? You could use canva to help influencers create course books that they want to sell online. You could also just sell canva templates on etsy or on a website. You could learn wordpress and make websites for small businesses or even politicians running for office. What I've found is that just because it seems obvious to me, it isn't to other people. I use chatgpt to help me write grants sometimes, and people are impressed thinking that the applications are so well written. 😀 Maybe do a brainstorming session and write down a million ideas and then try a couple!

Incog you could try freelancing on fiverr or something similar?

I have even found people selling prints of royalty free images on ebay. I don't know how they make money but I guess they do! I guess buyers just don't do research to find out the images are free. There's a million ways to make money!

Yes I work full time and my workload has actually increased since having baby, so I'm constantly overwhelmed. I will have to go to part time soon because my brain is going to explode. I just don't know how to do it financially yet 🤦🏼‍♀️

@Kate I’m in California Ohhh thank you I guess you’re right. I thought about selling on Etsy few years back just as a side hustle but I always think “who’s gonna buy it? It’s so simple to make anyone can do this” but I guess you’re right. I’m gonna give it a shot, I don’t have anything to loose anyway lol I use chatgpt all the time too 😆I gotta keep in mind that it not so obvious for everyone and that someone will buy!

@Kate oh wow you’re a strong mama!!These kids take so much time and energy lol but they’re soooo freaking cute and I could die for mine ughhh 😫🥲🥰

@Sharnee yea I can’t compete with those on Fiverr they’re making logos for $5, but I’ll look into something similar thank you!!

Hey you could also maybe get a certificate for some kind of computer job. I think there's a website called course careers. That would be a good at home job

@Kate going to look into it! Thank you so much I really appreciate you!!
