I'm currently starting life online and offline over after a big upheaval. Long short of it is DV survivor, rushed escape across half the country, left with only a backpack of stuff, was homeless for awhile, that kind of upheaval.
I've started a blog on Substack + Wordpress about things like surviving and healing from exactly that kind of stuff, as well as solutions to those bigger causes re: homeless, hunger, and a bunch of things that really broke my heart in others as I was on the run.
Problem is I was never into the social media treadmill before all this. I don't like X, I was only on Instagram for friends, I'm not on TikTok, that kind of thing. And now that I have no access to my old computer or phone, I don't have access to what accounts I did have like Insta.
I'm working with only an old laptop and a phone Medicaid sent me. I only feel confident I can really work with text and photos right now. Hence why I picked Substack and this route till I get on my feet, but if you all think I could attempt videos with either this laptop or my phone, I can try it. My blog posts are already scripts I could build from.
Either way, how do I promote myself with extremely limited resources?
Thanks for reading, and for any help offered.
