A Note From Shanta Marie
An honest conversation to our community
Building The Mommy Pod has always been about vulnerability, truth, and uplifting one another through every season of life. Today, I am reaching out to this community with that exact honesty.
Right now, I am facing an intense financial struggle. I am currently two months behind on rent and facing the risk of losing essential utilities next week. It is not easy to share this publicly, but I believe in the power of this village and I am not looking for a handout—I am ready to work, create, and deliver immense value for you and your business in return for your support. Thank you in advance!
“Resilience is knowing that asking for help is an act of strength, and that community makes every burden lighter.”
