Deep dives

Understanding ADHD and Personal Journey

Coaching individuals with ADHD or ADHD tendencies involves recognizing the unique challenges they face within traditional structures that often don't align with their way of thinking. The speaker discusses their own ADHD diagnosis, which brought a significant sense of relief, transforming a previously overwhelming struggle with working memory and deadlines into a clearer understanding of their needs. Realizing that their difficulties were not due to a lack of intelligence, but rather due to working memory impairments and the necessity for accountability, proved empowering. This perspective shift allowed for the implementation of tailored strategies that align better with the individual's brain function and learning styles.
