⚠️IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT⚠️
You might’ve noticed I’ve gone a bit quiet. 🫶🏼
Here’s why: an almost-8-month-old who needs me for everything and isn’t shy about it. Two neurodivergent kids. My own health — including a recent hospital stay for a “hormonal imbalance” that made it very clear I’d stopped putting myself anywhere near the priority list.
It got me thinking about quitting. Not in the failure sense — in the letting-go sense. Letting go of what isn’t serving what matters most right now.
And what matters most right now isn’t fighting a system that was never built to bend easily. Support coordination asked me to keep showing up for a process that often felt slower and harder than the people it’s meant to help — and I gave everything I had to make that work, for as long as I could. But somewhere in trying to hold that up while also holding my family together, I lost sight of what I actually had left to give. Some days the only window I get is nap time — and even then it’s a toss-up between a shower, eating lunch, or answering emails. Fighting myself over which one wins, every single day. Rushing to get a bit of work done while baby’s happy, watching the clock until it isn’t. That’s not it. That’s not sustainable, and it’s not the way I want to keep showing up — for my family, or for the people I support.
It’s my health. My family. One very clingy baby who has zero interest in sharing me with anyone else.
So I’ve made the call to close support coordination as part of Spread Your Wings. Every client has already been personally notified — my last day is September 1st.
It’s okay to quit the things that are costing you more than they’re giving back. Even when those things matter. Even when you’re good at them.
This isn’t the end of what I’m building though. What’s coming next is about supporting women with disabilities in a way that doesn’t ask me to run on empty to do it — more intentional, more sustainable, and honestly, better. I’ll share more when it’s ready. 😉
Thanks for your patience while I’ve been quiet. I needed it.
