MEET YOUR COACH

Hi, I’m Helen.

Live a great story.

I love hearing people’s stories—What excites you? What challenges you?What makes you unique? I became an ADHD coach because I believe ADHD is a gift. It’s about understanding how your brain works and learning to play to your strengths.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just wanting to feel proud of who you are? You deserve to understand your mind, lean into what works for you, and create a life that feels balanced and fulfilling.

It’s time to thrive—not just survive. How about being open to new opportunities, exploring more possibilities, developing a stronger growth mindset, and finding better ways to navigate life. Let’s discover them together. We’ll figure out how you thrive best—and make life feel a little easier along the way. Life IS busy but not too busy for YOU.

Find What Works. Trust Your Strengths. Thrive.
