Barter/Trade
What skills, special interests, or services do you have to offer? Anything and everything will be taken under consideration, for all skills and abilities are respected here.
Can you info-dump to educate me on something new? Do you have a collection of memes to share? Can you body-double to create accountability? Sew some clothing adjustments?
If I don’t need the service myself, would you be open to offering that to another person in need? Could an educational conversation be recorded & edited? Could you ship items you create?

Sliding Scale : Choosing your place on the scale
Between continuing education, technology supports, various tools to do my work, and the limited hours I have each day due to disability, my living wage is $200hr.
And also I understand how incredibly prohibitive that is for so many people, especially the communities I most love to support. For that reason I offer sliding scale and barter for ALL services I offer as a default. In the past I have received memes and coordinated skill trades in exchange for payment. I’m also always actively seeking grants and other means of funding to support my work.
The highest dollar cost ($200) reflects the true cost of the class or service.
It is the cost that the practitioner would charge all peoples in the absence of a sliding scale.
If you have access to financial security, own property or have personal savings, you would not traditionally qualify for sliding scale services.
If you are able to pay for “wants” and spend little time worried about securing necessities in your life, you have economic privilege and power in our community. This price is for you.
The middle cost ($35-$100) reflects the supporter’s acknowledgement that paying the full cost would prevent some folks from being able to attend, but who do not honestly find themselves reflected in either descriptions for the highest cost or the lowest.
If you are struggling to conquer debt or build savings or move away from paycheck to paycheck living but have access to steady income and are not spending most of your time thinking about meeting basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, child care, etc., you belong here on the lower end of this scale
If you, however, can ask others for financial support, such as family members, partners, or friends, yet still struggle to secure your future. Please consider using those personal resources and choosing the upper end of this scale before you use the resources of this sliding scale and limit opportunities for others.
The bottom cost(free, barter & trade, $10-$35) represents an honest acknowledgment by the teacher and practitioner that there are folks whose economic circumstances would prevent them from accessing care if there was not be a deliberate opportunity made for them to access services at a cost that is reflective of their economic realities.
If you struggle to maintain access to needs such as health care, housing, food, child care, and are living paycheck to paycheck or are in significant debt, you belong probably belong here and you deserve a community that honors your price as equal an economic offering as the person who can pay the highest tier.
Even when the lower tier is still prohibitive, I will work with folks to offer extended payment plans and other solutions.
