Struggling
Added 2024-02-22 16:44:01 +0000 UTCHey All,
Over the past few months, even with my regular posting schedule of content, I've noticed a significant decrease in patronage, and I wanted to be open about my challenges. As a full-time creator, your support means the world to me personally and professionally. However, the reality of being a creator often comes with its share of uncertainties, and lately, I've been feeling the weight of those uncertainties more than ever.
Your generosity, encouragement, and unwavering belief in the content I create have been a constant source of inspiration. I want to emphasize that I'm not sharing this with you to evoke guilt or pressure. Instead, I believe in the power of transparency and honesty in our relationship. Your support has allowed me to pursue my passion full-time and create content that I'm proud of, and for that, I am immensely grateful.
Your continued support makes a significant difference and has always been a symbol of our shared connection and belief in the power of creativity. If you're in a position to do so and believe in the value of the content I create, I would be incredibly grateful for any additional support you can provide.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being a part of this incredible community. Your support means more to me than words can express, and I'm excited to continue this journey with each and every one of you.
Pete

The Gymjunkie IG is kind of abandoned at the moment - IG kept flagging my posts. I make most of my teaser posts on X and Bsky now. My personal IG is @petepiekarskijr - that's where I post most of my Bodybuilding progress etc :)

2024-02-26 18:08:40 +0000 UTCThank you! I've very much appreciated your support when you were able. Currently, it's not so much a depression thing as it is finances and being able to make ends meet.
