Welcome to Farmhouse Fixations!

This isn’t just a blog—it’s a home for creativity, growth, and empowerment. At Farmhouse Fixations, we embrace the idea that our quirks and hyperfixations are strengths, not flaws. This is a space where ADHD isn’t seen as a hurdle but as a superpower—one that fuels ingenuity, passion, and an unrelenting drive to explore what sets our souls on fire.

Life with ADHD, fibromyalgia, anxiety, diabetes, and chronic complex PTSD (CCPTSD) can feel overwhelming, but it’s also full of opportunities to learn, adapt, and thrive. I’m facing these challenges head-on and discovered that the key to moving forward is accepting where you are, doing what works for you, and striving to do your best. Not someone else’s best—your best. That’s where the magic happens.

This blog is built on the foundation of my personal experiences—good, bad, and everything in between. I’ll share what’s worked for me, what hasn’t, and how I’ve turned hyperfixations into a superpower for solving problems, creating beauty, and building a life I love.

Along the way, I’ll guide you in:

Building life skills: Learn how to plan meals, cook nutritious food, and stick to a budget without sacrificing joy or flavor.
Developing emotional resilience: Find tools to calm down during moments of anxiety, overcome self-doubt, and cultivate self-care routines that truly nourish you.
Boosting self-esteem: Discover how to celebrate your wins, embrace imperfection, and stop comparing yourself to others. You don’t have to be perfect—just do your best.
Navigating pain: Whether it’s physical pain from conditions like fibromyalgia or emotional pain from past trauma, we’ll talk openly about finding ways to cope, heal, and grow.

But this isn’t just a how-to blog. It’s a place where creativity shines. ADHD often gives us the gift of hyperfocus, allowing us to dive deeply into our passions. From crafting and DIY projects to problem-solving and creating systems that make life easier, I’ll show you how to harness your fixations in ways that make your life richer and more fulfilling.

At its heart, Farmhouse Fixations is about empowering you to embrace who you are and find the joy in living authentically. It’s about learning to take life one step at a time, finding the strategies that work for you, and letting go of the pressure to do things “perfectly.” Life isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress.

Whether you’re here to learn a new skill, find support for your mental health, or simply connect with someone who understands, you’ve found the right place. This is a community where we celebrate every step forward, no matter how small, and remind each other that doing your best is always enough.

So, let’s get to work—and by work, I mean the kind of work that feels more like play. Let’s embrace those fixations, dive into our passions, and build a life that feels joyful, creative, and uniquely ours.

Together, we’ll learn, grow, and empower each other to live with confidence and intention.

Let’s fixate, create, and elevate—together!
