ā ļøIMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTā ļø
You mightāve noticed Iāve gone a bit quiet. š«¶š¼
Hereās why: an almost-8-month-old who needs me for everything and isnāt shy about it. Two neurodivergent kids. My own health ā including a recent hospital stay for a āhormonal imbalanceā that made it very clear Iād stopped putting myself anywhere near the priority list.
It got me thinking about quitting. Not in the failure sense ā in the letting-go sense. Letting go of what isnāt serving what matters most right now.
And what matters most right now isnāt 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 itās meant to help ā 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 ā and even then itās 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 babyās happy, watching the clock until it isnāt. Thatās not it. Thatās not sustainable, and itās not the way I want to keep showing up ā for my family, or for the people I support.
Itās my health. My family. One very clingy baby who has zero interest in sharing me with anyone else.
So Iāve made the call to close support coordination as part of Spread Your Wings. Every client has already been personally notified ā my last day is September 1st.
Itās okay to quit the things that are costing you more than theyāre giving back. Even when those things matter. Even when youāre good at them.
This isnāt the end of what Iām building though. Whatās coming next is about supporting women with disabilities in a way that doesnāt ask me to run on empty to do it ā more intentional, more sustainable, and honestly, better. Iāll share more when itās ready. š
Thanks for your patience while Iāve been quiet. I needed it.
