You might have heard of the term "Dark Night of the Soul", but do you know what it is?

It's an inner state that most people rarely talk about honestly. And today, I'm here to shed a little light on it as I traverse it myself for the 6th time in this lifetime

It’s the part of a transformation where the old version of you starts to dissolve and the new one hasn’t fully arrived yet.

It can feel empty, terrifying and deeply bloody uncomfortable.

But sometimes the dark is where we finally stop living from illusion and begin returning to our truth.

Have you been or are you going through a Dark Night of the Soul?

Delulu tip of the week

Stop making your joy wait in the hallway until you look different, earn more, heal every wound, find the person, launch the thing or finally become some polished version of yourself who apparently drinks green juice and never spirals.

You are allowed to treat yourself well now.
Not once you’re “better.”
Not once life is less messy.
Not once the stars align and the Moon and Mercury stop acting like a drunk teenagers.

Now.

Wear the outfit.
Book the thing.
Take up space.
Speak kindly to yourself.
Stop putting your own softness behind a velvet rope like it’s VIP access.

Because withholding love from yourself until you’ve “earned it” isn’t motivation. It’s what we call a hostage situation.
And it's time to set yourself free once and for all

Your ND child's brain isn't broken. It's built for what's coming.
We've spent decades asking neurodivergent children to sit still, be quiet, fit in.
But the skills the world called "too much" - the hyperfocus, the pattern-spotting, the relentless questions, the unconventional thinking - what if they are the exact skills the new era in AI can't replicate.
Swipe to see why the future might have been built for our ND kids all along. 🧠✨

Everyone loves the idea of the “new earth”

Until it starts costing them something

Because this definitely isn’t all calm mornings and feeling aligned

It looks like outgrowing people
Questioning things you used to blindly accept
And realising you can’t keep pretending everything’s fine anymore when it isn’t

You don’t just “shift” and float into a better life

You lose tolerance for what isn’t true

And once that happens… you can’t unsee it

You can’t go back to who you were, no matter how hard you try

So if things feel uncomfortable right now or like your world doesn’t quite fit the way it used to

Good

That’s not you falling apart , that’s you waking up to what you’re no longer available for

You think it’s behaviour but it’s actually regulation

Some kids don’t calm down by sitting still
They calm down through movement. And often the bigger the better!

Let me set the scene...

Your nervous system:
full survival mode, Bear Grylls style

You:
just scrolling Netflix trying to find something to watch

No actual bear
No actual danger
Just a body that hasn’t got the memo that it's completely and utterly safe to power down

It's a tiny habit that gives me a big clue as to what is going on with kid's and their nervous system.

It can sometimes be a child’s nervous system saying:

⚡ I feel overwhelmed
🧠 My brain won’t slow down
😬 I’m holding tension in my body
🫣 I need comfort or predictability
🌀 I’m sensory seeking
💭 I’ve got big feelings but not the big words to match just yet

Not every nail-biter has a dysregulated nervous system. But before we jump to “stop doing that”… I want you to get curious.

When does it happen?
- After school?
- Watching TV?
- When they’re concentrating?
- When they’re worried?
- When they’re tired?

Because behaviour is communication. And sometimes those little bitten nails are quietly telling a much bigger story about what's going on inside for our little people.

Some things to try:
🤍 More connection before correction
🤍 Crunchy snacks
🤍 Heavy work (push, pull, climb)
🤍 A fidget nearby
🤍 Hand massage or lotion before bed
🤍 Always nervous system support instead of shame

And please stop asking them to stop biting their nails, because if they could they would.

Does your child need a nervous system reset? Link in bio to book

Maybe… just maybe… you’re doing better than you’re giving yourself credit for.

Save this for the days your inner critic grabs the mic 🎤 and takes over.
