Hi, I am Nat, here's my ADHD Story and
As an ADHD Career Coach, I bring an ADHD lens to Career Coaching, helping you to reconnect with yourself, and develop strategies to help your manage your ADHD at work, in business, or make a career change to a more ADHD-aligned career.
I was told I had ADHD as a child (which was unusual for an English girl in the 80s), but thought I’d grown out of it, as my hyperactivity reduced. In my early 40s, perimenopausal symptoms kicked in and my working memory and decision-making fell off a cliff! It was scary.
Reflecting on my neurodivergent son's traits made me realise I STILL HAD ADHD!! I’d simply learned to internalise my hyperactivity and mask well (at work anyway) but the reality was, I had really struggled with basic admin tasks my, whole career (but was too ashamed to admit it).
"Knowing" and coming to terms with being an ADHDer, gave me answers - I finally understood what was driving me and could start to rewrite my life story (bit by bit).
After years on the waiting list, I was finally diagnosed in 2023, which was a big relief - I was finally able to start to bring that self-compassion to daily life that stops paralysing ADHD shame spirals, and learn to manage my energy levels and hyperfocus better.
I learnt to see all the positives that ADHD brings, and really wanted to help my neurodivergent coaching clients feel the same way.
This led to me spending a year training as an ADHD coach. I am now a certified Gold Mind Academy™ Specialist - ADHD Coach and 80% of the time I work with neurodivergent clients.
I look forward to speaking with you and helping you to understand and integrate your own ADHD, so that you can lean into your neurodivergent strengths, embrace your uniqueness and create a fulfilling work and life that makes you happy and feel proud to be neurodivergent.
why I became an ADHD Career and Business Coach

ADHD Career Coaching is:
Self-Awareness and Neuro-Education
As ADHDers, we can feel so alone with our way of thinking and being.
Coaching allows you the space to explore this more in a safe and supported environment. Learning to view yourself through an ADHD lens, with empathy and self-compassion leads to powerful shifts in mindset and self-acceptance.

ADHD Career Coaching is:
A Strengths-Based Approach
Instead of focussing on what's 'missing', we’ll identify and build on your unique strengths, helping you to excel in areas that are meaningful and unique to you. Along the way, we’ll work on managing symptoms and making positive changes, including processing any past challenges from trying to fit into a predominantly neurotypical world.
