ADHD Masking Exhaustion: The Hidden Toll of Neurodivergence

Finding breathing room in a world that won't stop feels impossible. Every notification demands attention, and every moment gets filled with productivity. But breathing room isn't about finding more time - it's about creating space within the time you have. Sometimes the most radical act is simply pausing.

I said yes to everything, and now I'm drowning in projects I hate. Started a business for freedom, only to end up trapped by my inability to say no.

That's the conversation on the porch today.#Entrepreneurship #SayingNo #BusinessGrowth #MillennialEntrepreneur #WorkLifeBalance #PurposeDriven #SelfCare #MindfulBusiness #PodcastForEntrepreneurs

We're speaking the same language but somehow never understanding each other. Every conversation feels like we're playing telephone with our emotions. You say one thing, they hear something completely different, and suddenly you're arguing about dishes when you were really talking about feeling unheard. Communication isn't just about words - it's about connection.
