ANECDOTE

Different Client Readiness Levels

Podcast listeners tend to arrive more ready and fluent in journey-thinking language.

INSIGHT

Coaching Mirrors ADHD Barriers

Coaching mirrors ADHD barriers: awareness, action, and learning as a repeated process.
Recognizing this alignment reframes stalled clients as bumping into specific ADHD barriers, not as bad clients.

ADVICE

Delay action-focused homework in early sessions and do big-picture work first.
Use initial sessions to map values, needs, and a life that fits before task lists.
