The time has come for me to finally make the move & say goodbye. I've been sitting with this for the past few months, trying to reflect on what I want (and have capacity) to do, and the decision has yet to change, so I have to share.
I came into this work hoping to fill a hole in the support system we have available, and unfortunately, there are too many hurdles for me to continue jumping over. Working under capitalism means for me to earn enough I would need to raise my prices beyond levels I feel comfortable with. Working in this field means I need to give more & more of my capacity to others, losing who I am, & what I love to do & be. Inherently, who I am now, & the way the world is currently, means this work isn't sustainable.
So I've had to make the decision to step away, and focus on myself. It's been incredibly difficult to come to this decision, & I'm sure I'll have my regrets, but taking care of myself needs to be my priority.
Take care, stay safe, and be kind,
K
