THIS IS WHAT IâM REALLY NOTICING RIGHT NOW
Between being fried from having people in the house, managing Lilyâs needs, planning travel, running a business, and trying to keep my nervous system regulated, I can see how quickly things pile up. Iâm not struggling because I donât care. Iâm not overwhelmed because Iâm incapable. Iâm overwhelmed because there are a lot of moving parts, and my brain processes them all at once. Lots of conversations and connections are happening across my spaces, and I genuinely love that. I love getting to know people, especially mums, and I love the depth of those conversations. But it doesnât change the fact that I still have to manage my own capacity alongside it all. What Iâm really seeing is that being a neurodivergent mum running a business isnât about doing less or trying harder. Itâs about understanding how your brain actually works and being honest about what youâre holding at any given moment. What helps you recognise when youâre at capacity, before everything tips over?
