Hi everyone, I'm Marie from Virginia. I don't have a business yet — I'm in the exploring stage. My background is in accounting and bookkeeping (I have an associate degree in accounting, and my last on-site job was doing QuickBooks invoicing, records, shipping/receiving, and a shared email inbox). I had to step away from on-site work because my body couldn't keep up anymore. I'm navigating fibromyalgia, so chronic pain, fatigue, and that push-and-crash cycle are my daily reality. I'm here because I want to find a way to work from home, at a pace that fits unpredictable energy, ideally written / non-phone work like bookkeeping — and to learn from people who are building around their limits instead of having to explain them. Glad to be here.
