From misdiagnosis to mission-driven: My journey as a neurodivergent professional has refined my purpose to revolutionize workplaces through neuroinclusive practices. Labeled "gifted and talented" yet struggling with undiagnosed ADHD & autism throughout my early life, I heard all the dismissals: > "too smart to have ADHD" > "girls don't have ADHD" Which ultimately led to internalising traits as character flaws. By my early twenties, I was battling performance anxiety, chronic perfectionism, burnout, and emotional dysregulation—feeling like I'd failed to reach my "potential." The turning point came while working alongside a psychiatrist specializing in ADHD. This collaboration sparked a profound transformation in how I viewed myself and my future. I channeled my lived experience into becoming an ICF-approved, certified ADHD Life Coach. My coaching philosophy blends professional expertise with authentic lived experience. I create confidential spaces where clients can: • Gain deeper understanding of their neurodivergent brain • Reframe limiting beliefs through self-compassionate narratives • Develop lifestyle strategies that maximize their unique strengths • Access advocacy support and resources Of course, I couldn't stop there. Beyond individual coaching, I partner with forward-thinking organizations to cultivate truly inclusive workplace cultures. My expertise includes: • Challenging societal misconceptions through public speaking • Advising organizations on tapping into neurodivergent talent • Designing neuroinclusive policies and practices • Delivering engaging training programs that foster understanding The transformation from viewing my neurodivergence as a limitation to recognizing it as my greatest asset has been profound. This journey uniquely positions me to guide others—both individuals and organizations—through similar paradigm shifts. When neurodivergent minds receive the right support and environment, they become powerhouses of innovation, driving meaningful change and offering fresh perspectives to complex challenges. Together, we can build workplaces where cognitive differences aren't just accommodated but celebrated—paving the way for unparalleled success and fulfillment for all.
