I'm Janiece
I didn't always have this life. The income on my own terms, the calendar that answers to me, the years I get to spend with my family instead of an office desk.
A few years ago, my boss reminded me during workplace mandates: "You may not have a choice." She was right. And it made me rebuild everything. So we started small. One bill at a time.
