Own Your ADHD
Stop wasting your own time and money wondering what you’re doing wrong or what’s wrong with you. You already know, you just haven’t connected the dots yet.
Be Your Own ADHD Advocate
With ADHD you HAVE to be your own advocate! I share my story to inspire you to become your own health advocate, so you can understand no one will do as good a job as you will.

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).
