Who is this for?

If you are seeking practical tools and strategies to protect your wellbeing while navigating work, home, and relationships, this course is for you. What will I learn? This two part course is packed with useful information on understanding why ADHD and strategies to help and support. In part one we will: • Unpack the ADHD “iceberg” to reveal what’s visible and what’s often hidden beneath the surface. • Explore executive function (the brain’s “control tower”) and how it impacts planning, time, focus, emotion, and follow-through in daily life. • Map common challenges and real strengths associated with ADHD, identify what sustains your wellbeing, build simple mental health supports, and practice confident self-advocacy in work, healthcare, and personal settings. In part two we will: • Create concrete tools for time-keeping, task initiation • Find motivation and creativity to start, sustain, and finish tasks. • Learn emotional regulation skills you can actually use under stress • Ways to stay balanced when you enter hyperfocus—protecting rest, relationships, and health while still leveraging deep focus as a superpower. How can I use what I learn? In this course you will create an individualized toolkit you can apply right away in your day to day tasks and interactions with others. You will feel more confident self-advocating and expressing your needs and will be more aware of burnout and use tools to prevent it. You’ll leave with a realistic plan to design your environment, regulate emotions in the moment, channel hyperfocus safely, and build habits to maintain your wellbeing.
