a life less conventional

Who am I?

Does anyone really know?   

Does anyone really care?   

Above all I am dog lover & plant mother.

I am delighted to report that I have much more success with the former than the latter.

Below that I am a neurodivergent creative, doing my best to survive mentally and financially while avoiding a conventional 9-5 at all costs and with mixed success …

I tried living a conventional life, but it was a lifeless one.

This is a blog about being neurodivergent.

Blog: A Life Less Conventional

It’s about how fucking great it can be.

It’s about how fucking debilitating it can be.

You might even learn something.

It’s sometimes about how you can make it more bearable.

Read along as I navigate the joy, freedom and fuckery that is a life less conventional, trying to carve out a new way of living, while also learning to truly understand myself, my brain and my disorderly emotions.

Half-cooked thoughts & epiphanies, what's not to hate? Let's see if anyone can relate.

If any of this absolute drivel rings true to you then I’d love to hear from you.
