It's Friday, and I think we could all use a little corn and cheese. As in me and Deevon La Rue being corny and cheesy, and narrating this video of our coral restoration volunteering together. Yes, we are still working on raising funds to complete our gear and get additional research and conservation training certifications. Thank you *so much* to those who have helped us get this far. While also seeking and submitting proposals for paying client work. While also doing excellent client work. While also promoting client work (see posts on Mother: Sisterhood in the Wild film from earlier this week). And as Wes would like you all to know, "he be scrubbing too." And FYI, this isn't bad grammar, it's AAVE. This Friday, I wish you all the freedom to be natural, silly, cheesy, corny, joyful, authentic, and at ease with who and where you are in life. Even if it doesn't fit within the parameters of those who will never love you anyway. I invite you to do what you love, even if others don't understand it. I challenge you to seek and embrace the core of who you are, even if it isn't consistent with the "brand" you're told you need to have. If you like this, please subscribe to our channel, share, and consider donating!

Volunteering a few hours a week can be so fulfilling…you meet new people and gain new skills, if you’re just starting out it helps with work experience and gaining a job…if you’re retired it helps keep the brain healthy and active…whilst the charity you volunteer for gains the asset that is you!! They then convert that to helping those in need = a win win situation! Consider what you can do with a couple of hours, you’ll be surprised at the rewards you gain, plus there’s free tea and coffee & biscuits, and in the winter you save on the heating bill whilst you’re there!!! #volunteering #makeadifference #charity #salvationarmy #volunteersweek
