As some of you may have seen on my social media sites, I had a difficult week. As some of you may have seen in video updates, Patreon posts, or private messages, I've had a difficult year. I feel like every month I'm writing y'all an update asking you to be patient with me because I'm having a rough month. Again. Without getting into the personal details, this past year I've encountered some of the most difficult, frightening, and sad challenges I've ever had to face in my life.
But you know what?
Any other year of my life, I don't think I could have handled even one of these challenges. I don't think I would've been okay. But this year I'm getting through them. One at a time. I know I'm going to be okay.
Every time I've asked you for patience, you've doubled down and countered with patience, love, and overwhelming support. This channel has given me a much needed sense of purpose at times that I've felt lost, and you all have consistently been so generous with thanks and kind words for what I have to share, while never asking for more than I can give.
The motor on my daughter's swing broke yesterday (a replacement* is on the way), so I'm sitting here, rocking her swing with one hand while she naps, and updating Patreon with the other. I'll be sending out an early access link for my next video (a hypnosis sleep induction role play) to my Patrons in a few minutes. It'll be going up on my main channel on Tuesday, and I'm excited for you all to see it.
I just want as many of you to know as possible (since this is the closest thing I have to a blog) that I'm SO grateful for all of you. I can't keep up with comment responses like I used to, but I do read all of your comments, messages, and emails. Thank you so much for ALL the ways you support me, whether it's on Patreon, by subscribing to my channel, by liking my videos, by commenting on my videos or social media posts, or even by quietly just watching my videos (I know commenting isn't for everyone, and that's okay). With every little way you tell me that my videos help you, YOU help ME. Thank you. I'm so glad we're in this together. <3
Love,
JB
