Lots of fun moments in this 2023 highlight reels, Lots of fun moments in this 2023 highlight reels, but let me keep it real with you - it has been an emotional rollercoaster of a year.

Some say that โ€œSurviving is Thrivingโ€ was the vibe of this year and I definitely felt that. 

Hope that you are able to look back on this year and reminisce on some moments of joy and peace! โค๏ธ

Happy New Years and wishing you all the best for 2024!
๐Ÿ˜ฌ Just a day in the life of a messy 36 year old re ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Just a day in the life of a messy 36 year old recently diagnosed with ADHD.

It's hard for people w/ ADHD to stay focused while cleaning, but I've found that spending an extra 5 minutes writing out a list before getting started keeps me on track. 

The list has 3 categories: 

1) things that have a place (takes 1 min, quick and easy)
2) things that take multiple steps (that takes 3-5 minutes)
3) things to decide later (to reduce decision fatigue)

Understanding the Bathtub Model of Stress has been a complete game-changer for me. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿง–โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ›€๐Ÿผ 

Just like a bathtub can get clogged over time, your stress levels can overflow if you donโ€™t manage to clear the drain properly. If youโ€™re experiencing burnout, this is a good sign that your tub is completely overflowing. How do you take a bubble bath if you canโ€™t even clear the drain?

Alright, so how do you triage?

๐Ÿญ) ๐—ฅ๐˜‚๐˜๐—ต๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—น๐˜† ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—น ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ฒ. Turn off the faucet to the incoming stress that you can control. For me, it was working on controlling my inner thoughts that stressed me out, and deleting outside noise that didnโ€™t serve me (e.g. deleting IG for a few months).
๐Ÿฎ) ๐— ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ & ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜. Stress hormones can build up in your body, and the best way to get rid of it is through movement. Iโ€™ve made daily movement a priority for this reason. If you donโ€™t have energy for movement, then rest. Real rest โ€” not resting and scrolling on social media. ๐Ÿ˜‰
๐Ÿฏ) ๐—จ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ด ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฑ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ป. The last few years, Iโ€™ve gotten REAL honest with myself about what lifestyle habits donโ€™t serve me anymore in my 30s. Iโ€™ve been really focused on prioritizing better habits so I can thrive, not just survive.

If youโ€™re in a rough season, I hope this gives you some hope that things will get better, but youโ€™ll need to get real on how you deal with your overflowing tub.
