The ADHD limiting belief that kept me stuck for ye The ADHD limiting belief that kept me stuck for years: “I’m just not good at being consistent.”

Every time someone else accomplished something I wanted, I’d use this as my excuse. it became part of my identity.

But in 2022, I started collecting proof instead of excuses. almost every day since then, I’ve stepped on my Peloton app working toward my “Daily Peloton for a year” goal.
I haven’t finished it yet. I’ve skipped days. But I keep showing up anyway — and THAT’S the proof. I’m building evidence that I AM someone who follows through, even when it’s not perfect.

Slowly, the narrative is changing. I’m not someone who can’t be consistent. I’m one of the most consistent people I know.

And having this proof makes it so much easier to stop falling back on that old story.

What limiting belief are you working to rewrite? Tell me in the comments 👇

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 “Surviving is Thriving” 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! ❤️

Happy New Years and wishing you all the best for 2024!
😬 Just a day in the life of a messy 36 year old re 😬 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)

😩 𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐀𝐅 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨? Unde 😩 𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐀𝐅 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨? Understanding the Bathtub Model of Stress has been a complete game-changer for me. 🙌🏼🧖‍♀️🛀🏼 

Just like a bathtub can get clogged over time, your stress levels can overflow if you don’t manage to clear the drain properly. If you’re experiencing burnout, this is a good sign that your tub is completely overflowing. How do you take a bubble bath if you can’t even clear the drain?

Alright, so how do you triage?

𝟭) 𝗥𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲. 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 didn’t serve me (e.g. deleting IG for a few months).
𝟮) 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 & 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁. Stress hormones can build up in your body, and the best way to get rid of it is through movement. I’ve made daily movement a priority for this reason. If you don’t have energy for movement, then rest. Real rest — not resting and scrolling on social media. 😉
𝟯) 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗹𝗼𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻. The last few years, I’ve gotten REAL honest with myself about what lifestyle habits don’t serve me anymore in my 30s. I’ve been really focused on prioritizing better habits so I can thrive, not just survive.

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