How to Get a Free Doctoral Degree

Hey Guys! It’s been awhile right?! I know but I am back and ready to give you all the information you need! If you missed it last week on my channel , I discussed how you can get a free doctorate degree. If you’ve been following my doctoral journey, then you know that I am currently working towards my doctoral degree in higher education. I recently finished all of my coursework and I am officially working on my dissertation proposal this semester. I chose to work at a university so that I could not only work with students but so that I could also receive a discounted education. In the beginning of my journey, I received a $1,600 stipend towards my courses, and I paid fees out of pocket. I also received several scholarships along the way that helped to cover most of my fees. Last year my university decided to cover doctoral degrees at 100% for all professional staff which was a major benefit. While I understand that most folks do not want to join the education world don’t let this s

Adult Daily Living Skills: Black Friday Shopping

  (This a thumbnail of my Adult Daily Living Skills: Let's Go Shopping" YouTube video.) So thanx to COVID the ever so exciting  Black Friday looks a little different this year . Most retailers are breaking the holiday up into several weeks of deals to prevent people from running to the stores at once and saying the heck with social distancing. This last weekend I decided to take a part in the fun since my Tupperware had disappeared again and I saw a deal for a $20 ring light ! After not being able to get these items online (because they sold out in minutes) I got up at 4am to head to Walmart . Check out the video below to see how things went !

Adult Daily Living Skills: Budgeting

  (This is a thumbnail of my Adult Daily Living Skills: Budgeting YouTube video" Over the last few months I’ve made a decision to become better with my finances. I'd gotten tired of getting paid only to portion out most of it to monthly payments towards my debt and not even having enough to cover the things I actually needed. Soon after I heard about a guy named Dave Ramsey on Instagram. Browsing through his social media I saw people paying off crazy amounts of debt that were much larger than mine and I decided to do the same. I started this journey with taking his financial assessment that placed me at step 2 of the infamous “Baby Steps”. In step 2 you are paying off debt using the debt snowball and gaining control of your budget. (This is a phot of Dave Ramsey's 7 Baby Steps)  I gained control over my budget through the Every Dollar budgeting app and The Envelope Method. The Envelope Method is a budgeting strategy where you build discipline through sticking to your budge

Adult Daily Living Skills: What's the Big Deal ?

  (This is photo of Ms. Duggan holding pink cleaning gloves, cleaning spray, and bleach while smiling) Adult Daily Living Skills or Activities of Daily Learning (ADLs) are activities that are performed on a daily basis that are necessary to live independently. These activities often include organization, personal hygiene, and money management. Many individuals within the disability community can benefit from hands on instruction on how to complete these ADLs. However, due to COVID many day treatment programs are closed or not operating at full capacity. This creates another barrier for the disability community to access needed resources. To combat this barrier I have decided to create a YouTube channel that will serve students and adults with disabilities. My YouTube channel will feature weekly videos that center on organization skills, educational resources, and Adult Daily Living demonstrations. If you would like to request a video to be made that centers on one of these topics pleas
