🫶 This first tier is the Support Squad. It’s for anyone who wants/is able to help support me during this time. Or if you’ve ever gotten any value from my videos.
📚 The second tier is the Dollar Dialogues Book Club! Help us pick which book we’er reading on the channel and we’ll have a live stream once a month to discuss the book!
