I have significant back pain right now. And my therapist brain immediately goes: What am I holding here emotionally? What does this mean?

It's wild. I can't just have back pain. I have to understand it through a body-brain lens.

Pain is often both—physical and emotional. Your body holding what your mind can't process.
Do you do this too? When you're in pain, do you look for the emotional layer? Or just treat the body?

A small offering, from our hearts.

Alongside an anonymous donor, we were able to send 100 copies of Bulletproof by Jill McMahon to the community of Tumbler Ridge.

Jill’s work — shaped by her own experience as a survivor — speaks to healing after gun violence in a way that is honest, human, and deeply needed.

Like so many, we were moved by what happened in Tumbler Ridge. This was one small way to show up. and offer support. To try and express to Tumbler Ridge- you’re not alone in this.

💚 From our hearts to yours.

Hey PDA parents — we really do have to stick together. 💚

This path can feel isolating, especially when PDA is misunderstood. If you’re parenting a PDAer, you’re not alone — I’m right here with you.

I’m working toward building more community and support for PDA families, including Beyond Demand, a nervous-system-based approach focused on real safety, not more pressure.

Because when PDAers feel safe, they don’t just cope — they shine.

If this resonates, I’d love to hear from you.
What’s been the hardest part of parenting a PDAer lately?

The myth is that someone with ADHD just needs more willpower.
ADHD isn’t a motivation problem; it’s a difference in how regulation works.

ADHD brains respond differently to dopamine, time perception, and task initiation. That means starting something, sustaining focus, or shifting between tasks can require far more internal effort than most people realize.

Many people with ADHD are already working incredibly hard — often harder than the people around them.

When we misunderstand regulation as laziness, we miss the invisible labour.
When we understand the nervous system, we shift from blame to support.

What’s something people misunderstand about ADHD that you wish they knew?

You don't need to explain yourself to everyone. You don’t need everyone to understand or get you.

The right people get it without the defense or the energy suck of asking for you to explain over and over again.

Over-explaining and justifying everything takes away too much energy.
Your energy is precious and what if you stop using it on people who can’t hear you.

💚 Save it for the ones who see you. That's where peace lives.

Ram Dass said when you hug a tree, you're hugging yourself.

Can you find a huggable tree? Feel the bark. Notice how solid it is.
It won't solve everything. But it might give you a few minutes of peace.
We all need more of that these days.

💚 My heart to yours.

Autistic burnout is real — and it’s often misunderstood.

Many autistic people will experience a significant burnout at some point - because they’ve spent years adapting to environments that ask too much of their nervous system.

What makes it even more confusing is how easily autistic burnout gets confused with anxiety or depression. The exhaustion, withdrawal, loss of capacity, and shutdown can look similar — and even clinicians and doctors can struggle to tell the difference.

Mislabeling burnout can lead to a not-helpful response and inevitably more pressure, not relief.

In our upcoming webinar on April 20, we’ll slow this down and unpack what autistic burnout actually is, how it shows up, how to notice when you’re approaching it, and what support can look like when you’re in it.

But I’m also curious about your experience.

Have you ever wondered whether what you were going through was burnout — or something else entirely?
What helped… or what made it worse?

The hardest part of a boundary isn’t the “no.” It’s everything that comes after.
The shift in tone. The unspoken questions. The way people look at you when you’re not quite who you used to be. But boundaries aren’t about pushing people away. They’re about choosing how you want to show up and giving yourself permission to stay.

Sometimes courage is quiet.

It’s might be allowances for being tired or working to have an open heart after heartbreak.

Sometimes when old patterns would be easier, you know you have used energy and courage to try something different or to show up again. And then you allow rest.

Courage can happen in private moments no one else witnesses. Just for you to know and choose who to share it with.

Sometimes fear can be so strong and staying steady takes so much effort and that’s courage too.

Courage isn’t the absence of fear; it’s actually showing up when fear is present too.

Our 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝗿 & 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 is designed to help you honour your fear and build a relationship with the courageous parts of you that are already there.
