Throughout my life, I was constantly on the move — thinking, doing, planning — never truly still. My ADHD kept me in a state of hyper-vigilance, where I was always juggling multiple things at once, and never feeling fully grounded. I found myself on a career path that didn’t align with my true values, driven by impulsive decisions and a restless energy that left me feeling unfulfilled.

It wasn’t until I discovered mindfulness, yoga, and their practical applications that I began to change my relationship with myself. Journaling and mindfulness became my anchors, allowing me to create space between my racing thoughts and get to know the person I was becoming.

I learned to acknowledge my anxiety and avoidance patterns without letting them dictate my actions.

I stopped trying to completely reprogram my ADHD nature, and instead embraced the shift from behaviours that held me back to those that propelled me forward.

And as I delved into inner child work, I found myself in tears. There was so much to forgive — myself, my parents, and the stories that had shaped my struggles. This journey led me to my deepest breakdown…

I no longer recognised the person I thought I was. I had questioned everything about myself, and in doing so, I felt even more lost than before.

But, when you don’t know what to pursue in life, pursue yourself.

Focus on becoming the healthiest, happiest, most healed, present, and confident version of yourself. Then, the right path will unfold naturally.
