Alejandra's recovery builds strength with app!
Donation protected
I'm Alejandra, and I’m 26 years old. Thanks for watching my video and supporting me on this journey of mine.
At 23, I had a mimic of a stroke, leaving me paralysed and in a wheelchair for 2 years. I am recovering day by day but have had to learn to now live my life with a Functional Neurological Disorder and several back issues.
During my recovery, my experiences led me to realise what is really important in life, which kept me going through dark and difficult times. In particular, three things helped me be here in front of you now and develop into the person I am today: Community, Friendship, and Collaboration, through giving value to knowledge and what we have to bring to one another.
I understand how my environment was important to me and why it's so important to value every little part of our planet, encourage it and nurture it to its full capacity. I align the ecological recovery of the planet with my own personal development. If I see the environment around me recover, it motivates me to fulfil and develop my goals.
Now, I want to give back to the world that helped me. My recovery is ongoing, it is an everyday condition that I have to face and deal with, but I want to encourage those that may be going through their own medical illnesses or otherwise that your illness does not have to define you, that you can help others as you recover by going for your aspirations, dreams, by inspiring and saying ‘I can do this! I am capable of many things in spite of the obstacles!’
This is at the core of Meixter, a 1 to 1 live tutoring platform where people create that connection and collaboration to grow themselves and others. I have produced a place for people to connect, help and learn from each other, a place where it doesn't matter who you are, your background, or your religion, a place where we are in for the sole purpose of giving knowledge to others. Now, more than ever, it’s important for us to connect and help each other out! I don’t want to wait for tomorrow's dream. This opportunity is for now as this is the time it is needed.
I am launching this amazing educational app, but I really need your donation to help inspire those who are facing challenging illnesses and help build the biggest community of learners the world has ever seen.
Your donation will also be helping this beautiful world that we have the pleasure and privilege of living in. So, in addition to going for my dreams of building a community where value comes from knowledge and helping others go for their dreams, I also want to create a community that is conscious of the environment. Every person coming into the app and learning or teaching will be helping to plant trees through a reforestation organisation.
I want to inspire all who may be facing illnesses, but I also want the community to inspire each other and others to plant that seed that can multiply and create an incredibly positive impact in people’s lives and in the environment we all live in.
Please help me help others!
