Holly Marsh: Coping mechanisms and dumpster fires

Episode 1 with Holly Marsh. "The stereotype of ADHD is some grade school boy who is bouncing off the walls and not being able to sit still, and that’s so not the case. Your brain is just wired a little differently and there are so many facets to that, which means not everyone is cookie cutter."

Holly is a maker and illustrator and has been running her business, Marshmueller, for nine years. What started as a handmade business specializing in practical yet cute products for babies morphed into a line of goods for babies, kids, and kids at heart alike using Holly's hand-curated selection of colorful and quirky fabrics and now includes products featuring her bold, colorful hand illustrations. Her goods can be found on her website, as well as many small independent retailers across the country. She also specializes in helping clients with their Shopify sites and email marketing efforts as a freelancer for the agency Aeolidia. Holly is currently in treatment for breast cancer, and hopes to be done with that dang targeted chemo by next Spring. She lives in Astoria, Oregon, with her husband and her two boys, who are also neurodivergent. Website: www.marshmueller.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/marshmueller Instagram: @marshmueller
