Moose and Squirrel is a slow growing brand, because nothing gets built in a day. We are a pick your poison type company, following the ever-stereotypical ADHD story of – I can’t pick a hobby. That leads me to the full story of Moose and Squirrel – our short-term goal is to create beauty, whimsy and also practical solutions by providing Everlasting bouquets where the limit is your imagination. Crochet sustainable clothing and 3D printed solutions (yes, you with the wobbly desk…. we see you, we understand you – let us fix that for you) 

The world might literally be on fire but IDIFY (I Defy) provides a big solution to the ever growing fast fashion landfill situation. I will happily take that bag of clothes sitting under your bed, near your front door, hidden in the cupboard off of your hands – restore them and sell them on for you, you get 70% of the profit with none of the effort…well a little bit of effort. We do need to schedule a collection after all.

Now, our long-term goal is something so incredibly personal but fundamental to our message and mission. As a late diagnosed neurodivergent woman, I have struggled to understand my diagnosis, come to terms and grieve for the person I could have been had I been provided the correct support in my formative years and to get very personal with you after my diagnosis I was incredibly lost. I know my story isn’t unique. I know there are many out there who don’t know where to turn and regular therapies and off the rack only serve to make life that little bit more confusing. My passion project is to help late diagnosed neurodivergent adults who are lost between choosing therapy over medication, feeling isolated and alone to feel seen and supported. To offer not only educated and accredited psychological support but to back it up by lived experience. To help you make the decision between medication or therapy (maybe both, maybe none). Many of us get lost in the gaps and darn if our Rejection Sensitivity has us people pleasing ourselves in circles not allowing us to ask the right questions, to the right people, at the right time. I will help you grieve; I will help you find yourself and most importantly I will help you feel seen……I just have to get my qualifications first!

So, all this to say – Moose and Squirrel currently offers short term dopamine hits, solutions to everyday mundane issues (yes you with the wonky desks) a way to earn yourself some cash with minimal effort all to support the eventuality of launching one to one and group therapy sessions tailored for neurodiverse individuals. I see you friends, you are not alone.
