This is an excellent programme which is brilliant for those who have been coaching for some time and want to do a deeper dive into understanding ADHD and how you might work with your clients. I searched for something like this for a while but only found coach training programmes with a “bolt on” module. This is seriously well researched and if you’re ICF accredited also gives you CCEU’s for your credential renewal! Well worth it in my opinion.
Sally is flexible and takes time to review any questions you may have as you progress through the modules and the group dynamic provides a safe place to discuss everything ADHD and beyond. Even if you don’t want to specialise in ADHD coaching this gives great insight into working with neurodiverse clients broadly.
Highly recommend.

I am an accredited Senior Coach Practitioner with 10 years of experience running my coaching practice. Before this, I spent 25 years leading and managing teams across the private and third sectors. I've had the privilege of working with teams of all shapes and sizes, brimming with unique and brilliant minds.
And there's more to my story. I have found myself drawn towards supporting those with neuro-diverse diagnoses, and funnily enough, they've been drawn to me too.
About 2 years 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. To bridge this gap, I embarked on a journey to develop my understanding of ADHD.
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 journeyed through menopause, I discovered more about my own ADHD symptoms. It dawned on me that the derogatory labels I had given myself over the years were a result of a lack of understanding of what my neurospicy brain was struggling to do as I forced myself to fit into a neurotypical world. Embracing my 'peaceful wildness' (a term borrowed from Dr. Alex Conner), I have redefined my narrative, shedding past misconceptions and emerging as a champion for inclusivity and understanding in the neurodiverse community.
