I started producing different types of crafts in March of 2022. It started out as self therapy after a very tramatic job experience to help myself get back some inner peace. As time went on and I dove deeper into abstract art I begun to figure out that it was something I'm really good at. I come up with an idea then I make it reality but with my own twist on it. I have multiple one of a kind pieces that if presented to the right audience could bring in quite a fetching price. I have only sold to friends and family but I want to expand to a larger market. My vision for Inspired Creations is to incorporate not just my art work but the art work of the local community artists too. Our business would be helping myself and other local artists reach new avenues with the internet. We will feature their work along with my own. Have the community involved to help promote the site. This is where I came to a stand still. This year has been a rough one for my family and I. The day after my birthday in January I went to the Dr thinking I had the flu but I wasn't that lucky. Long story in a nut shell. I was told I should have died months before walking into the ER that day. I knew I had been sick but I didn't know how bad. The human body is supposed to have 12 to 16 pintsof blood in the body on any given day. Well the day I walked into the hospital I only had 2.6 pints of blood in my body. I should have died when I lost 2 3rds of my blood supply which is roughly below 4.7 pints. The Dr's call me a walking miracle . That they've never met someone still function daily and have that little amount of blood in their body. See I never once called into work and still haven't since I've been out of the hospital. Going through this event made me realize life is truly a blessing and you should spend it with those who mean the most to you. See there are somethings that were discovered during this period. My body does not absorb iron so I need transfusions for the rest of my life. My current job is amazing but the insurance is extremely undesirable. I'm a very strong willed type of person and I refuse to let someone else decide if I get to live or die. See my insurance refuses to pay for anymore of my medically necessary treatments. So I decided to take every penny I had or could aquire and turn my passion into becoming my own boss. I want to leave my mark in this world. I love helping others and seeing them smile just brightens my day. I want my children to truly understand that they are the true creators of their future and to follow your dreams no matter how scared you might be of failing. If you never try you will never know. All that said I have tried to get a side job to go with my fulltime job inhopes of supplementing my income but all avenues so far have been fruitless. I have not had a treatment since May due to them costing roughly 11 thousand dollars for one treatment that will last me about 3 months. So hence the stand still. I will be completely open and honest with everyone. I have tried everything to get funding but due to some of the hardships I have gone through this year I put every penny from my retirement account, savings, credit cards and even 2 small personal loans to get this business up and running. I have nothing left for materials, business expenses like marketing etc. I only explain this because I'm honest to a fault and don't want anyone being surprised or saying I misled them. I'm very passionate about getting this business out there for everyone to be a part of its future. I want to help others with whatever time I have left in this world and I dont want my family to have to deal with my finances once I'm gone either. I have never been in debt before and I don't much care for it. I will put my heart, mind and soul into this business if someone would believe in me and have the same passion for helping others. I really appreciate you taking the time to read this. Now go hug your loved ones and cherish every second you get with them. I hope you have a blessed day. Best wishes, Kelly Garrett.
