Radiant Rise: Finding Myself in the Middle of the Chaos: From Overwhelm to Understanding, and Learning to Live as My True Self

What if you were never “too much”… just misunderstood? For most of her life, Michelle Baldwin believed she was the problem. Too emotional. Too overwhelmed. Too inconsistent. At the same time… never enough. But everything changed when she finally began to understand her mind. Radiant Rise is a raw, honest, and deeply personal journey through:

• Being diagnosed with autism and ADHD as an adult.
• Navigating motherhood, relationships, and expectations while overwhelmed.
• Burnout, emotional exhaustion, and starting over.
• Unmasking the version of yourself you created to survive.
• Learning to work with your mind instead of against it.

This isn’t a story about becoming someone new. It’s about returning to who you’ve always been. If you’ve ever felt like you’re too much… and somehow still not enough— This book will help you see yourself in a way you never have before. And maybe, for the first time… you’ll realize you were never broken at all.
