I always find so much value in your videos! Thank you!

I moved to Canada a year ago and just recently got my PR finally so my first step in my plan is emailing local business I've seen selling work by local artists. So far that's only been two but I'm keeping my eyes out! Gotta learn some basic book keeping as well and work on a portfolio so I can reach out to bigger companies to try to get some of my work licensed 😁

Still in the beginning steps of my plan because previously I was focused on immigrating and improving my art skills but I feel like as long as I keep taking steps in the plan and adapt it as needed, I'll get where I want to go 🥰 I thank you for a lot of those "aha" moments that lead to this plan

Awesome video Ness! You made me realize that being resourceful is a a good skill to have! In some classes I’ve always think, why are they asking that? they could just google it or search in YouTube😅. Good luck in your boot camp and I hope you’re feeling better 🩺

I'm planning on working at construction in Canada, but have to get my passport first 😅. I'm tired of this game, can't chase that "big brake" job anymore, or any serious job for that matter.

Sorry, I feel like I always come to your videos to vent 😔
