I’m so excited to share that I’ve written a chapter in Begin It Now, a powerful collection of stories and insights from innovators, business owners, and changemakers as part of

My chapter shares lessons learned from building Mindworx Psychology during the period I was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was honestly a difficult chapter to write, often reducing me to tears with memories I’d buried deep.

To see it in print… and meet my co-authors in person- It’s an incredible honour to be featured alongside such inspiring entrepreneurs who are redefining what success looks like, with courage, authenticity, and purpose.

I’ll share the purchase links once I get over my excitement - feel free to message me if you’d like a copy!

Ever stare at your to-do list and feel your chest tighten — like your brain can’t even decide where to begin?
That’s not laziness. It’s your brain doing what it thinks will keep you safe.

When an ADHD brain sees too much, your nervous system interprets it as threat.
Cortisol rises, dopamine drops, and suddenly you’re in freeze mode.
The part of your brain that plans and prioritises (the prefrontal cortex) goes offline, while the emotional centre (the amygdala) takes charge.

It’s not that you don’t want to do it.
It’s that your brain is flooded — overwhelmed by too many open loops.

💡 What helps:
• Shrink the task until it feels doable. If “write the report” feels impossible, start with “open the document.”
• Add dopamine before you begin. Music, movement, sunlight, even a short timer — give your brain a cue that says “safe to start.”
• Celebrate small momentum. Finishing one micro-step releases dopamine and helps your brain want to keep going.

You don’t need to push harder — you need to start smaller.
And the moment you do, that fog of “I can’t” starts to lift.

Save this for the next time your list feels like a wall instead of a doorway. 💛

What an inspiring day at WEXPO — surrounded by business owners who care deeply about making a difference.
Conversations about mental health, neurodiversity, and inclusion remind me why this work matters so much.

I loved connecting with so many parents and professionals who are changing the story around ADHD at Sydney’s ADHD conference - and of course, getting to hang out for the day with the incredible Adele McFarland, one of the Clinical Psychologists on our team at - it’s been my honour to mentor Adele in her early career, and I now learn so much from her.

What were your key takeaways from the day?

Parenting an ADHDer?
Start today.
Stop yelling.
Stop the overwhelm.

Start understanding your child’s brain - and connecting in new ways. 🧠💛

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering:

💭 “Why can my child focus on games, but not schoolwork?”
💭 “Are they lazy or just not trying?”
💭 “What am I doing wrong?”

You’re not alone, and you’re not failing.
Your child isn’t lazy, broken, or “too much.” Their brain just works differently - and once you understand how, everything changes.

✅ 10 weeks of self-paced video modules
✅ Practical strategies you can use right away
✅ Downloadable guides & scripts
✅ Real-world examples from clinical practice
✨ Plus 3 months of Q&A with me - so you never feel stuck or alone

💡 Learn the science.
💛 Rebuild your calm.
🤝 Restore connection.
