✨ Not Quitting, Just Reclaiming My Terms
I’m not quitting. I’m not giving up. I’m just reclaiming the terms. 💅🏾 Lately I’ve been tired — not of creating, but of trying to do it on platforms that want everything except to truly support me. I’ve tried the shops, the print-on-demand sites, the follower-building, the “optimize your audience” hustle. And what did I get in return? Fees, rejections, and silence. Over and over. 🙄 Platforms like Spreadshirt, Teepublic, even Patreon — they all act like they’re here to help you grow. But what they really mean is: “If you already have clout, we’ll let you make money. If not? Good luck shouting into the void.” 📉📢 Well, I’m done shouting. ✌🏾 I’m still creating. 🎨 I’m still dreaming. 💭 I’m still doing what I love. 💖 I’m just not doing it for algorithms or storefronts anymore. Until I find another way to do what I want without paying a lot and getting little in return, I’m stepping back from the selling side. The pressure. The chasing. 🚫💸 I’ll be here.
