Messages and Burnout
Added 2017-10-27 19:43:13 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
I have been wanting to write this post for a few months now, but needed some time to formulate my thoughts. So here goes:
I am no longer able to answer questions via messages on Patreon. I would love to be able to talk to all of you, answer your questions, and offer support 24/7. However, I just cannot keep up. Every time I finally get through my messages (which usually takes me 3-4 hours) the very next day my inbox is full again.
I plan to do more Patreon Livestreams and hopefully you can get your questions answered there! I think that that is a much better way to maximize my time and get more questions answered. Know that I wish I could do everything and answer every question. I think that's why it has taken me so long to speak up about it. I care about you and want to help, but if I keep trying to answer all the questions each and every day I will completely burn out.
So in order to continue doing what I do and helping as many of you as I can, I will not be able to answer anymore messages. Also, if you are in the $20 tier and above, save your questions for the monthly videos!! I will reach out for those questions next week!! xoxo Thank you so much for your support and understanding.
Love,
Kati
p.s. of course if you have a quick question about Patreon itself I am happy to answer that :) But Patreon also has a great support team too!

2018-08-14 17:55:31 +0000 UTCIt's been awhile, but I was kind of surprised you answered mine the first time. I would have expected you to be way too busy. I support another couple of people that never reply to anything. They might read it at some point, but won't have time to send a reply and that's okay.

2017-10-28 21:05:26 +0000 UTCYou can still reply to my message that I send out every month :) It's really just the messages that I get all throughout the month that I cannot keep up with :) xoxo

2017-10-28 21:05:10 +0000 UTCTotally understandable Kati! You are a very kind and giving person. I’m glad you are taking care of yourself! That is a great example for all of us. I have wondered how you do all that you do and don’t burn out. I think you are very wise for doing this. You are very appreciated and loved! You will continue to be so! Much love to you.....

2017-10-27 23:34:37 +0000 UTCI am so incredible thankful for all the love, support and understanding you show, ( I found the courage to start going to therapy because of you) You are so amazing at what you do Kati, but you are "one" person, you can't physically or emotionally do it all and that's completely OK. I think its safe to say we all only want the best for you. Thank you for being the incredible person you are, the world is a better place because of you. ❤ Hugs from a proud #kinion. xoxo 💕💖

2017-10-27 21:33:40 +0000 UTCIt's OK, Kati. Please don't overstress yourself. As it was already written here a few times, it's completely understandable and we will always have your back.

2017-10-27 21:06:22 +0000 UTCI commend you to admit this as I'm sure it is something very difficult for you. As you always tell us boundaries are healthy and self-care should be a priority . You do so much for our community and I'm sure everyone here is grateful for all the work you put in to helping us all have a healthy mind and a healthy body😘.

2017-10-27 21:05:40 +0000 UTCWe stand with you Kati!! There is such value in everything you pour out and share, but more importantly in who you are girl! And that gold needs protecting. You will notice it adds more value to your time which will only propel you into greater things. Never apologise for that! If Kati not happy, us Kinions are not happy!! Thanks for modelling this for us. -xx-

2017-10-27 20:39:28 +0000 UTCYou are demonstrating self-care! We support this. ;)
Abigail Chappell
2017-10-27 20:38:21 +0000 UTCIt is so understandable that you're not able to keep up with all of the things! You do SO much and I think I speak for all us kinions when I say we really appreciate you. <3 Also, I think this is a pretty great example of how we all need to take care of ourselves to avoid burning out and therefore - wait for it - boundaries are necessary! ;) I love the livestreams on here so I'm happy you will do more of those! Take care, Kati. Hugs!

2017-10-27 20:23:36 +0000 UTCBurnout is one of the worst feelings. Anything that contributes to burnout needs to be immediately dealt with. Once a person is burned-out, it's almost like dealing with a miniature depression. Absolutely support this decision.

2017-10-27 20:14:24 +0000 UTCWow, I did not even know you were doing this - that is crazy making!! Thank you for all the support and answered questions. I imagine some will not like the change, and if that happens I hope you don't let it get to you - you do a-freaking-lot (even without answering everybodies questions) :) <3
Katie Silvano
2017-10-27 19:58:55 +0000 UTCGlad to see you are taking care of yourself! <3 What is the best way we should we send in the monthly q's? Through message or will you make posts for us to comment on now?
