In this episode of Don’t Hit Snooze, I’m pulling back the curtain on something I’ve been sitting with for weeks: why my brain feels more scattered than ever… and why that might not just be "life be life-ing" but something deeper—something tender. Something sacred.

We’re talking:

• ADHD, mommy brain, and how it’s not just in your head
• What Dr. Gabor Maté teaches about trauma and attention, and why it hit different for me as a mom
• How childhood stress taught me to shut down and internalize early, and how that shows up now
• Why discipline is self-love, not punishment
• The tension between needing rest and feeling pulled to “still be productive”
• What this upcoming mini sabbatical is beginning to reveal about my need for maintenance over milestones

This one’s for the overwhelmed achievers. The healing daughters raising free daughters. The women wondering if it’s them—or something deeper. Come sit with me in it.
