Hi everyone

A few weeks ago, I was scrolling online when I saw this opportunity in a fb group. I decided to take a chance and sign up for a low-cost class on creating short, simple product reviews for some extra money.

After watching the training, I went through a few hoops and signed up. I had trouble getting into the program because it’s pretty specific… but I’m pretty resilient and gritty so I kept trying.

Once accepted, it took 10 days to see my first commission… and then it didn’t stop. It’s not a ton of $ at first, but it is consistent. Basically, ANY TIME someone reviews your product video on Amazon (anywhere in the world, by the way), you get a percentage of the cost of the product… no need to buy anything special; I literally reviewed anything and everything in my house. If it’s on Amazon, you can review it. I even reviewed stuff at my in-laws house 😂

I am still shocked when I wake up daily to a commission by doing very little work (see attached screenshot)

Anyway, if anyone wants to check out the low-cost training, below is the link. ALSO, there are Facebook support groups for this program which is a total game changer (for me, at least).

Reach out with any questions:

Introducing

Pod-Abilities: listening and adding value to people with disabilities.

(Link to episode in the comments)

Episode 1: Meet Drew Dees

Drew is a twenty-five-year-old from Gainesville, Florida. Despite living with Cerebral Palsy, he does not let it stop him from pursuing his dreams. His upbringing consisted of a simple principle that has carried him throughout life — anything can be accomplished with effort.

As a whole, Drew wants to make a difference in this world through his work, and another way he defines himself is by his work as an advocate for those with special needs. The ability to help others is a gift, and he is glad to be able to serve his community in this way. He has been involved with “Softball Palooza,” a benefit softball tournament for Special Olympics Florida, as well as served as a mentor to children with developmental disabilities and other special needs at the annual Florida Youth Leadership Forum. Additionally, he currently serves as the Media Relations Coordinator for the Night to Shine Prom at Grace United Methodist Church, sponsored by the Tim Tebow Foundation.

Drew is currently pursuing a career as a Multimedia Journalist.

If you would like to be a guest on the next episode of Pod-Abilities to share your story, please comment or send me a DM.

In honor of international day of people with disabilities, I’m reposting a video I made at the beginning of the pandemic.

I touch on my experience growing up with an invisible disability.

It sheds a different light on disability by adding elements of popular culture.

I can’t control my past but I am in control of the present, how I shape my future, how I view my disability and how I educate others.

If anyone is interested, check out a wonderful organization for those affected by hydrocephalus.

Hydrocephalus Association

From research, medical opinions, parent support, etc. I spoke to the group yesterday to discuss ways I can help people how to aid weak memory retrieval using short melodies paired with basic tasks.

There is an online conference at the end of the month with guest speakers and a ton of great resources:

The goal of the conference is to provide tools and connections to address the medical, educational and social complexities of living with hydrocephalus and to learn from world-renowned medical professionals and researchers.
