Transcript
I'm 29 years good, and I just lost my job. And just six months ago, I moved back from Vancouver after ending a seven year relationship. So I decided to move myself downtown Toronto to a condo of my own. And I was really starting to feel like myself again until two months better, I became unemployed. So I have no idea what's going on or what's coming next for me, but I'm gonna take you along for the journey and see what 2025 has in store for me.
