One of the executive functioning skills often impacted by ADHD is metacognition… our ability to pause, reflect, and make sense of our experiences. When that’s paired with the familiar reality of "my ambition often outpacing my capacity", looking back on an entire year can feel surprisingly overwhelming and bring up a lot of mixed emotions.
Like many ADHD business owners, I usually have far more ideas than I realistically have time or energy to bring to life. Over the years, I’ve learned that when I only focus on what didn’t get done, I miss the much bigger picture of what I did accomplish.
One practice that’s been especially supportive for me is creating a Year End Report for my business. As a solo business owner, I don’t technically have anyone to report to, but I learned in my previous jobthat year-end reflections in service-based work (while boring and tedious to compile) can be really soul nourishing. They help capture impact, reach, and the many small moments that don’t always feel visible day to day.
So as we step into a new year, I wanted to share a few of my “year in numbers” with you. Every number represents real people, real conversations, and meaningful work I feel deeply grateful to do.
Thank you to everyone who was part of this chapter.
