About this listen
In this episode of Up Past Bedtime, I’m diving deep into something that’s been such a huge part of my personal journey lately - rediscovering my confidence. I talk on this journey, neurodivergence, motherhood, and everything in between. I open up about my ADHD and ASD diagnoses and how they’ve shaped the way I see myself, especially after navigating the thick fog of postpartum depression.
This episode is all about unmasking - letting go of the pressure to be who we think we should be and reconnecting with who we actually are. I talk about the constant tension between the curated version of ourselves and our real, raw selves, and what it’s looked like for me to start setting boundaries, stop people-pleasing, and finally feel more at home in my own skin.
I’m sharing personal stories, the messy bits, and some of the steps that have helped me start showing up more authentically in my life. If you’ve ever felt like you were performing instead of living (or if you’re just tired of being everything to everyone) , this one’s for you. Let’s talk about who we are when we stop hiding.
