COACHING CAN HELP YOU SEE A RAINBOW INSTEAD OF AN OIL SPILL
ADHD is a life long condition, and whilst medication helps many people start to manage their symptoms, research suggest most people really benefit from some kind of specialist ongoing coaching or support
We use a combination of CBT, coaching techniques, ADHD tools, and practical support to help you reframe your diagnosis in a positive way and set you up to shine.
SUPPORTING YOU THROUGHOUT YOUR JOURNEY
WHEREVER YOU ARE RIGHT NOW - WE CAN MEET YOU THERE.
MY BRAIN HAS TOO
MANY TABS OPEN?
One thing we aren’t often accused of (hyper-focus aside) is having a one track mind.
We face a constant struggle to compartmentalise any one of life’s challenges from another. In short, our brains always have “Too Many Tabs Open”
Think of your brain as a smart phone or laptop, that requires certain 'maintenance' to keep it running affectively. That's what we use as the foundation for all our longer term coaching.
-
Firstly, the best way to preserve battery life is to close some stuff down. By addressing all of the open tabs and applications through a deep dive process, then planing and prioritising the actions required to close them, we can start to create a sense of calm, focus and even rest!
-
We check you are running on the latest update; This is about really understanding yourself and how your condition affects you, and how to do things more effectively as a result.
-
We fix the bugs; be it self care, operating systems, clutter clearing… you name it. We work to fix the things that are impacting your productivity currently in order to make way for more joy and creativity to follow.
It makes sense doesn't it?
PRE DIAOGNISIS
You've had your lightbulb moment, you've been to the GP and you've been told that the wait for assessment could be another two years?
Another two (or more...) years of a life that has already been a monumental uphill battle can feel unbearable...
You don't have to go it alone.
Getting or seeking a diagnosis at any age is life changing, But in adulthood it can be an absolute rollercoaster.
Some need to grieve for the lost years, whilst others are so relieved to finally have an explanation that they just want to learn more and run with it!
Everyone's journey is different. So maybe you want advice and support to help you through the diagnostic process or you are motivated to start making changes today, either way we are here for you.
ENTREPRENEURSHIP
Being your own boss can prove both ideal and problematic for the ADHD brain.
Whether you are already out there but struggling to do it all, have a vision for growth or just a dream, one thing is for sure the best life for many of us is one of self employment and entrepreneurship. That said, it's not without its difficulties and downsides. One of the major challenges we come up against is our ability to do some things brilliantly, whilst letting the mundane (yet often important) tasks slip to the sideline
IDEAS WITHOUT STRUCTURE ARE JUST THAT
This coaching program is designed to help you understand and uncover all the things that are holding you back from bringing your vision to fruition in full technicolour!
Through a process of stepping back and understanding the real value you bring to your idea, and how your desire to ‘do it all’ might just produce more harm than good, we then create a roadmap to success.
We can develop processes, systems and even personalised applications that are tailored to your business and brain. We also collaborate with (ADHD friendly) third party suppliers, and ongoing support workers to help you maintain and grow your vision whilst doing what you do best.
By the way, if you currently run your own business (or are employed elsewhere) and live in the UK, then there is government funding available to help you to be successful in your career that often covers the cost of both the initial coaching and ongoing support to get your idea flying.
Contact us (via the discovery call) to discuss further or go direct to the governments Access to Work site for more information.
STOP THE WORLD
I WANT TO GET OFF
DON'T TRY AND FIGHT ON YOUR OWN!
No matter how well you have your condition under control
BURNOUT & OVERWHELM
will undoubtably engulf you from time to time.
It might be early days, or you may have years of self management under your belt. Sometimes, often due to changes in life stage or increased amounts of pressure, it just becomes impossible to see the wood from the trees.
With a downward spiral in full flow and an impending sense of doom the most helpful thing can sometimes just be a simple are stepping back, and talking with somebody who understands how you feeling.
We all need this kind of support and understanding at peek times, so please call us if that ‘final straw’ is hanging over your head right now. It’s ok to not be ok.
