Thriving with ADHD, PTSD, and Depression

I don’t just survive with my disabilities, I thrive with them.
Living with ADHD means my brain is always moving. Ideas race. Focus shifts. But that same brain is creative, quick, and relentless in its vision. PTSD and depression bring battles many never see, but they’ve also taught me strength, boundaries, and the power of rest.
Running a business while managing these challenges isn’t easy. Some days, I cry. Some days I find it hard to get out the bed! Some days, I conquer. Most days, it’s both. But what keeps me going is purpose. I’ve learned to give myself grace, ask for help, and build systems that support my mind, not fight it.
I speak for those who feel unseen. I write for those battling silently. And I show up, even when it’s hard, because I know my story matters.
Disability doesn’t define me. It reminds me that I am powerful and human. And every day I rise is a day I prove: nothing will stop me.
“They tried to label me broken—but I turned every diagnosis into direction. My mind may work differently, but that difference is my superpower.”
