Episode 134 with Abby Lane.

“I was always a ‘more, more, more’ kind of person. Then COVID came along and it was all too much.”

Abby is a creative entrepreneur, furniture designer, wife, and mom to an amazing 9-year-old son.

She has a nearly 20-year career designing furniture and has for the last 12 years successfully run her own company, Redhead Furniture Design, a freelance design firm based in Charleston, SC.

Abby designs residential casegoods, accents, lighting, and collections for the home, partnering with many of the top furniture manufacturers in the industry. Her designs have sold well into the millions both nationally and internationally.

Abby and I talk about how a panic attack while volunteering at her son’s summer camp eventually led to her ADHD diagnosis. We also talk about ADHD & overachieving, overwhelm, stress, and perfectionism, and some of the ways we’ve each learned to self-regulate when we’re approaching burnout.
