Our values guide all that we do. We make these statements to define what you can expect from us. If you see anything on the site that doesn’t adhere to our values, hold us accountable!

Why Join Us
We Aren’t Just Storytellers, We’re a Community.
We’re just like you.
We struggle and stumble, but together we share and grow.
Some of us feel deeply about the need in our community and want to do something about it.
Together we can.
We’re There For You
You don’t have to be alone on your journey, and Slack is a great way to be part of an amazing group of people, whether you participate in the site or not. Slack serves as a safe space, apart from social media, where our community can share and learn from each other while also inspiring, directing, and sometimes even writing our site’s content.
We Love You Already
There is nothing wrong with us, we are not broken, we don’t need to be fixed. This is true, whether you currently believe it or not. We want to be there to positively support and impact your life for the better. Whether that’s sharing tips on finding a new doctor or home organization, someone here has something to share with you.

Part One of a Six Part series on neurodivergent sleep.
I suspect my fascination with sleep science largely comes from the fact that I have had a lifelong struggle with sleep.
As a child, I had terrible night terrors that would wake me up screaming, or I’d be out about the house, adventuring on one of my sleepwalking adventures.
Insomnia has always been my companion during big life transitions. After the birth of my children, I experienced insomnia, and despite whatever I did, I could not “sleep when the baby slept.”
My relationship with sleep and daytime sleepiness has been a lifelong struggle. Until I began studying the overlap between neurodivergence and sleep, it never occurred to me that my lifelong sleep struggles may be a sign of my neurotype! Turns out that with my late-in-life Autism-ADHD discovery, my sleep mysteries are solved.
And while my sleep patterns are far from perfect, I have learned some powerful tools along the way to help me get back on track when I’m in the middle of an insomnia loop.
I'll be sharing some of my favorite sleep resources (as well as their limitations for ND people) as we go through this series.
For a full deep dive, check out my blog post that goes with this post (linked in stories), where I go into much more detail, or check out my sleep workbook (available in the link in bio, Patreon, and on the website).
