Capitalism vs. pay me for my work

Capitalism and pay me for my work: My struggle with the nuances therein. > How I broke my ankle > Feeling less alone by listening to the stories of others > How much I make as a nurse > I started a Patreon https://www.patreon.com/Christabelmintahgalloway. Become a patron if you’ll like to support me monetarily.  > Why I priced/tiered my Patreon the way I did and why I need to keep my 9-5 job > Can I make a living doing what I love > Are these questions as a result of my indoctrination into capitalism > I don’t want to be a starving artist; I did enough starving in my childhood to last a lifetime > Why I would charge more for my time than a hospital pays me on the hour. > I had my first ever speaking gig yesterday speaking at a local college. > Ultimately, I’m choosing to face the work. The work is what I love and what I’ll focus on.
