Hello,
Hello,
I'm a 40-something woman living in a small, beautiful country with my husband, our middle schooler, a very enthusiastic cocker spaniel, and a cat who has opinions.
I've spent my career in marketing — different companies, different specialisations, always doing well enough that people thought I had it together. The secret? I wasn't sure I did. I spent years thinking I was lazy, unmotivated, and quietly faking competence.
Then, one afternoon, I stumbled across an article about ADHD in adult women. I read it. Then another. Then I cried — because for the first time, someone had described my entire inner life back to me. That was the beginning of this.
Welcome.
Thinking out loud about self-discovery

This is where I write about the stuff nobody told me when I was diagnosed with anxiety in my 40s — and started recognising ADHD traits that had quietly co-existed all along. The relief of finally understanding some of it. The strange grief of re-seeing your whole life through a new lens.
The small wins, the spectacular fails, and the ongoing negotiation between who I am and who I thought I was supposed to be.
I’m a marketing professional, a wife, a mum, a dog-and-cat person — figuring it out mid-flight.
If any of that sounds familiar, pull up a chair.
Daily planner for adults with anxiety or ADHD
Daily planner for adults with anxiety or ADHD
The Busy Hum Planner was born out of frustration with every other planner I'd tried. Too rigid. Too many boxes. Too much guilt when I skipped a day (or a week). This one is different because I built it for the way my brain actually works: non-linear, easily overwhelmed, and desperately in need of a system that doesn't punish me for being human.
