Every mother deserves to feel like herself - not just a version of herself that exists to keep everyone else afloat. In this episode of Chill Like a Mother, I sit down with Shar Thomas, Edmonton-based interior designer and owner of Where My Love Grows, for one of the most honest conversations we've had about creativity, neurodivergence, and what it actually takes to hold onto yourself in motherhood.

Shar shares how an Instagram reel about ADHD changed the trajectory of her family - and helped her see her own brain with more compassion than she'd ever given it.

We dig into why creativity isn't a luxury for moms but a genuine mental health tool, what neurodivergent parenting teaches you about yourself, and how Shar uses her home as her primary creative canvas when life leaves little room for anything else.

If you've ever felt the low hum of 'I used to make things and I don't anymore' - this one's for you.
