Would you describe your life as a rollercoaster?

This probably looks like sustained periods where you're extremely high-functioning and then prolonged periods where you struggle to do even the most basic functions.


Most people suffering from depression and anxiety experience this to some degree. If this is you, you're probably like me, a "high ceiling, low floor" person - highly functional sometimes, unable to do basics at others.


I'm sharing the 3 keys that help me move through the lows - and highs - for more consistent functionality.

    • ⁠Sleep better, without pills (partner I believe in)⁠
    • ⁠My book: For When Everything is Burning⁠
