One year ago today, I sold my first pin badge at canopyrobin.etsy.com and set out to fund my trans healthcare expenses sustainably by creating a small business alongside my fulltime job. This quoted thread shares the 17 designs and 106 variations I've made since then!

Please check them out! 🏳️‍⚧️

Every activity we do provides us with 3 payments: pocket/wallet payment, the payment for the heart, and the payment for the brain. "As managers and leaders, as people in charge and responsible for others, we must take care of that balance in the three currencies of payments." @yabellini.bsky.social
