Why have I created ADHD coach training for qualified coaches?
With 35 years of experience under my belt, I've had the privilege of leading teams of all shapes and sizes, brimming with unique and brilliant minds.
But there's more to my story. I've found myself drawn towards supporting those with neuro-diverse diagnoses, and funnily enough, they've been drawn to me too.
A year and half ago, I worked as a coach for a senior woman leader who had received a late diagnosis of ADHD. In our initial conversations, I recognised my own lack of knowledge about ADHD and its impact on individuals. I looked for ADHD coach training. To bridge this gap, I embarked on a journey to develop my understanding of ADHD.
I took proactive steps:
•Enrollment in Courses: I enrolled in two courses to deepen my understanding.
•Podcast Exploration: I actively listened to 156 podcast episodes related to ADHD.
•Client Collaboration: Working closely with my client, I gained insights into how to better support her.
Interestingly, during this learning journey, I uncovered my own neurodiversity. It became evident that the symptoms and traits of ADHD resonated with my own experiences. As I've journeyed through menopause, I've discovered more about my own symptoms, which may explain why we've had such a powerful connection. Believe me, I’ve been there.
As I uncovered more, it dawned on me that the derogatory labels I had given myself over many years were a result of a complete lack of understanding of what my neurospicy brain was struggling to do as I forced myself to fit into a neurotypical world. Today I am coming to terms with and in some cases changing the narrative for myself.
And it's why I've creating ADHD coach training
