I want you to know I’m a mirrorball

For two years, I’ve been living with Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS). And for two years, I have unknowingly been a ‘mirrorball.’ In the […]

"And the years passed like scenes of a show, the professor said to write what you know, looking backwards might be the only way to move forward". Taylor Swift, The Manuscript, TTPD, 2024

“Try and come for my job.” That is my definitive “Try and come for my job.”

That is my definitive answer to anyone who looks at chronic illness, recovery, or a slower pace of life and sees a void of empty time.

Healing from PCS is work. Keeping a compromised nervous system stable is a massive daily achievement.

Today, I’m publishing a piece that completely reframes how we view productivity, rest, and unconventional labor.

If you’ve ever felt judged for protecting your energy, this one is for you. 

See you on the blog!

🤍 Quote of the Week 🤍 A casual comment recently m 🤍 Quote of the Week 🤍

A casual comment recently minimised my reality just because my routine looks different. I’ve spent days processing it, protecting my peace, and channeling it into my writing.

As @taylorswift said: “You said some things I can’t unabsorb.”

📌 New post drops Wednesday. I’m pulling back the curtain on the unseen 24/7 reality of this journey. See you on the blog! 🫶🏻

“One single thread of gold tied me to you.” 🧵💛 15 “One single thread of gold tied me to you.” 🧵💛

15 years ago, a school trip to the Lake District changed my life forever. What a beautiful, wild ride it’s been since. 🏔️✨

I am so incredibly grateful for this journey with my husband—who, despite my dizziness, headaches, and concussion, remains the 1. 🤕❤️

Living with PCS means that going to a birthday party isn’t normal anymore. 🧠💔

Swipe through to see what happens behind the scenes of a simple night out when you live with an invisible illness.

Credit to @taylorswift for the perfect lyric that sums up exactly how it feels to attend a birthday party with PCS.

Quote Of The Week

  'You said some things I can’t unabsorb', Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus, The Tortured Poets Department, Taylor Swift - 2024.  

Try and come for my job
Long story short, I survived
And the road not taken looks real good now
What happened, you? That’s what happened, you
I haven’t met the new me yet
it’s time to go
It’s all just a blur
There wouldn’t be this if there hadn’t been you
right where you left me
I want you to know I’m a mirrorball
The Life of a Sourdough Girl
Everything you lose is a step you take
Am I allowed to cry?
hell was the journey, but  it brought me heaven
Soon You’ll Get Better
I’m in a new hell, every time you double-cross my mind
Are You Ready For It?
Write what you know, looking backwards might be the only way to move forward
Ask me what I learned from all those years
I find it dizzying
loml
take me to the lakes
