A few weeks ago I started meal prepping, and honestly, my autistic brain absolutely loves it. ๐Ÿ’•โœจ

I don't meal prep every single meal because I like to keep things realistic. Instead, I make sure I always have two healthy bowls ready each day. ๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿ“

As an autistic woman, I find there are already so many decisions to make in a day.

Having healthy food prepared in advance means one less thing to think about. It gives me a sense of routine and calm. ๐ŸŒธ

I've noticed that when I know exactly what's in the fridge, I feel less overwhelmed and more in control of my week.

It's a small thing, but it has made a surprisingly big difference to my wellbeing. ๐Ÿ’–

My glass meal prep containers came from Amazon and I love them because I can see exactly what's inside.

There's something very satisfying about opening the fridge and seeing everything neatly organised. โœจ๐Ÿฉท

For anyone who is autistic and struggles with executive functioning, planning meals or remembering to eat healthy foods, meal prepping might be worth a try.

You don't need to prepare every meal or become a fitness influencer overnight. Even preparing one or two healthy meals in advance can make life that little bit easier. ๐ŸŒท

Remember: routines aren't boring. Sometimes they're the gentle support system that helps us thrive. ๐Ÿ’•

๐ŸŒธ Small steps.
๐ŸŒธ Less stress
๐ŸŒธ A calmer mind.

To all my autistic girlies: your love of organisation isn't something to hide. It can be one of your greatest strengths. ๐Ÿ’–โœจ

๐Ÿก๐Ÿ’• Back home with our gorgeous dogs and honestly, I think they deserve employee of the month awards. ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ†

Things my dogs do better than most humans:

๐Ÿพ Never judge me for wearing the same comfy outfit three days in a row.

๐Ÿพ Listen to my problems without offering completely unhelpful advice.

๐Ÿพ Think every snack is exciting.
๐Ÿพ Get genuinely excited when I come back from taking the bins out.

๐Ÿพ Understand that sometimes sitting quietly together is the perfect social activity.

๐Ÿพ Never ask, "Why are you so quiet?" ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿพ Have mastered the art of napping without feeling guilty about it.

๐Ÿพ Remind me that a walk and some fresh air can make a difficult day feel a little brighter. ๐ŸŒณโ˜€๏ธ

๐Ÿ’– A little reminder for my fellow autistic women:

You don't need to be the loudest person in the room to be important.
You don't need to have everything figured out to be successful.
You don't need to change who you are to deserve friendship, kindness, and happiness.

Sometimes the most wonderful things in life are the simplest: a cosy blanket, a cup of tea, a loyal dog, and people who love you exactly as you are. ๐Ÿซ–๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’•

As the saying goes:

Now if you'll excuse me, I have two very important supervisors making sure I don't move from the sofa. ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐ŸŒธโœจ Clearing Out My Childhood Homeโ€ฆ and Finding More Than Just Old Stuff โœจ๐ŸŒธ

This week Iโ€™ve been helping clear out my childhood home, and honestlyโ€ฆ I expected to find old toys, random keepsakes, and enough forgotten hair accessories to open a small Claireโ€™s Accessories. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŽ€

What I didnโ€™t expect was how many memories would come flooding back.

As an autistic woman who wasnโ€™t diagnosed until adulthood, so many of those memories were tied to feeling different, misunderstood, and wondering why life seemed so much harder for me than it did for everyone else. ๐Ÿ’•

Sometimes I would find an old school item and physically feel a sharp pain in my chest as difficult memories came rushing back.

But amongst all of that, I realised something important. ๐ŸŒท

We canโ€™t change the past. We canโ€™t go back and give our younger selves the understanding and support we needed. But we can choose what we do with those experiences now.

Every challenge, every awkward moment, every time we felt like we didnโ€™t fit in can become something valuable if it helps another autistic girl feel less alone. ๐Ÿ’–

Life is so short. It flies by faster than we realise. ๐Ÿฆ‹

Holding onto hurt only makes the suitcase heavier, and I think it's okay to unpack some of that baggage and leave it behind. โœจ

To every autistic woman reading this: your story matters, your younger self deserved kindness, and your future does not have to be defined by your past. ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’•

And if you happen to find an embarrassing school photo while clearing out your childhood home... just remember that destroying evidence is sometimes self-care. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿ’…

Or better yet, flatten it with a tractor like we did ๐Ÿ˜‚

Today I went on the radio to talk about what it's like being autistic. ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ๐Ÿ’–

I'll be honestโ€”sometimes being autistic is hard. There are days when the world feels too loud, too busy, and too overwhelming. There are times when I wish things came as easily to me as they seem to for everyone else.

But today reminded me of something important: our voices matter.

Every time one of us speaks openly about being autistic, we help another autistic woman feel a little less alone. ๐Ÿ’•

If you're struggling today, please remember that you are valued, you are important, and you deserve to take up space in this world exactly as you are.

There are so many of us out thereโ€”autistic women navigating life, supporting each other, and proving every day that we belong. โœจ

So here's your reminder from one autistic woman to another: keep being yourself. The world needs your kindness, your creativity, your honesty, and your unique way of seeing things. ๐ŸŒธ

How has being autistic made you stronger? ๐Ÿ’–

โœจ A Little Solo Adventure to Dunbar โœจ

Today I finally did something I've been talking about doing for ages โ€“ I took myself on a day trip to Dunbar! ๐Ÿ’•

I caught the X7 from Meadowbank House and, thanks to my National Entitlement Card, the journey was completely free. The trip takes around 1 hour and 29 minutes, but honestly it didn't feel anywhere near that long. I had my headphones on and spent the journey listening to audiobooks.

Although I only have an autism diagnosis, I am increasingly convinced there might be a little ADHD in there too because I changed audiobooks about five times and listened to most of them at double speed! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“š๐ŸŽง

When I arrived, I was amazed by how beautiful Dunbar Harbour was. The weather was glorious โ€“ bright sunshine, blue skies and sparkling water.

For a moment I genuinely felt as though I was standing in a little harbour in Croatia rather than East Lothian! โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒŠ

A few fun facts about Dunbar:

๐ŸŒŸ Dunbar is known as "Sunny Dunny" because it is one of the sunniest places in Scotland.

๐ŸŒŸ It was the birthplace of famous conservationist John Muir, whose work helped create America's National Parks.

๐ŸŒŸ The town has a history stretching back over 1,000 years.

๐ŸŒŸ The harbour dates back centuries and remains one of the town's most beautiful landmarks.

After exploring, I caught the X7 home from the bus stop right outside Hector's Pizza. ๐Ÿ•๐ŸšŒ

An extra bonus is that the same stop is served by buses coming from Berwick-upon-Tweed, which means that's another adventure I can do using my National Entitlement Card.

The funny thing is that I've wanted to explore Scotland using my bus pass for years. I would get excited, plan a trip, pack everything the night before, and then when the day arrived I would lose my nerve and stay at home.

Today I didn't.

I pushed through the anxiety, got on the bus, and had a wonderful day.

As autistic people, it can sometimes feel safer to stay inside where everything is familiar and predictable. But Scotland is full of incredible places waiting to be discovered, and sometimes the hardest part of the adventure is simply stepping out of the front door.

I'm so glad I did. ๐Ÿ’–

Have you ever visited Dunbar?

And if you have a National Entitlement Card, where should my next adventure be? โœจ๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
