Hello everyone, it's been a minute!
I'm really going to try my best to be more active here because I truly do love this community so much and everyone in it has shown me nothing but support and I really want to give that back to you! That being said, what kind of content/blog posts would you like to see from me? Please let me know!
Anyways, the last few months have been nothing short of chaos! Some great things have started falling into place it feels, in terms of my creative capacity and ability and motivation to produce and release content has increased! That being said, there have been outside factors that have also hinged my ability to do so, especially as of late. A blessing and a curse I suppose.
When OnlyFans was down at the beginning of the month, I took a bit of a blow that I'm still struggling to come back from. I was unable to access my account for several days and when I was finally able to regain access I was unable to upload media and all of my messages with my subs were gone. After a few chats with the support team, I was able to regain a few chats, but not all of them and because of that, I lost some really valued people on my page. The reason I mention this is because I truly and most sincerely want to apologize to everyone this has affected. I know that I am not the only person this has impacted, and I am so incredibly sorry. To my own subscribers, I'm really doing everything that I can to make up for all content that was lost!
More recently with everything going on in the world, COVID-19 has hit especially close to home. The virus has wreaked havoc in the greater Seattle Metro Area and has affected me quite heavily. Currently, I am faced with the very real reality of losing my day job and all things that come with that. Aside from that, I am also immunocompromised and have been putting my own health and wellbeing at risk for the sake of my company and not getting any support in return which has forced me to come to some very difficult realizations. As of right now, I'm taking it day by day and truly just trying my best to remain hopeful.
Despite all of that, one thing is for sure; I have never been more proud of the communities that I am a part of, both online and offline. It is so incredibly important that during this time of high stress and vulnerability that we are ultra diligent in being gentle with ourselves and those around us. It's so easy to get caught up in the panic and the worry, but please just take a moment to drink some water and take a breath. Read a book, watch your favourite show or listen to your favourite podcast, take a bath; do whatever it takes to limit your stress. Reach out to your friends and family, check on your neighbours, support your local and small businesses, ask your favourite artists and creators what the best way is to support them and be there for them during this chaotic and difficult time, just really show up for your communities and your people right now because, at the end of the day, we only have each other.
I truly love and appreciate this community so much and I am incredibly thankful for everyone that has welcomed me with open arms and has shown me love and support!
With all my love,
IslaJayde
