Go gently and be kind to yourself. #PositiviTEA @fionacoley.bsky.social @maxpurpose.bsky.social

“Talk to yourself like someone you love.”Brené Brown

Some days you’ll maybe feel like you’re not doing enough.

Some days you’ll forget how far you’ve come.

Be gentle with yourself – you’re doing more than you realise.

On the notepad, the text reads: “Be gentle with yourself, especially on the days when you feel like you’re not doing ‘enough.’” At the bottom, the credit says SelfLoveRainbow. Small coloured hearts (blue, yellow, purple) are scattered around the background.

You’re doing your best. And that really is enough.
Some days it may look like progress, other days may look like getting through.
Both matter.

My research on masking black autistic girls in UK education has been published today in the Educational Psychology in Practice journal.

When I started this research there were no other published articles on masking black autistic girls in the UK.
