We got this.
well, last week i wasn’t so sure. in fact, i was a hot ass mess. my anxiety was super high, and i struggled through an IBS flare up. it felt like the walls were caving in.
so i did what i know how to do. i prayed, mediated and journaled. then i talked about it to my friends, family and followers. turns out i’m not the only one struggling with these types of feelings.
the COVID19 pandemic has most of us rightfully shook.
How We’re Creating Community During COVID19

Meanwhile, in this current crisis, we believe that our capacity for empathy is strengthened by our shared global experience. While we may be stuck indoors, using social media our voices can still be amplified, especially when we speak up together. That’s why we’re asking our global community to be louder than ever. To ask #WhoMadeMyClothes? and demand that fashion brands protect the workers in their supply chain just as they would their own employees, especially during this unprecedented global health and economic crisis.
