Things kids need to hear more often.

I forgive you.

I love you no matter what.

I made a mistake, I’m sorry.

I like spending time with you.

I’m so grateful you are in my life.

I don’t know. Let’s figure it out together.

I can see that you are trying and I’m really proud of you.

It’s okay if we don’t agree. I appreciate the honesty.

Let’s pause this talk and come back to it. I need a break.

Can we talk about what happened?
I want to understand your side.

🤨 Are you a parent of an ADHD child?

🧐 Would you like to know more ADHD so you can support your child better?

😟 Do you find yourself getting frustrated by not fully understanding why they do certain things?!

If you have answered yes to these questions then this group may be just the ticket for you! Come along to learn more about ADHD from a late diagnosed ADHD coach psychologist who has worked with many parents, ADHD children and adults.

You will learn what ADHD is and how you as a parent can support it better so life is calmer at home 🏡

If this sounds like something that would benefit you and you would like to be in a group of other likeminded parents going through similar things then book onto our parents group. Link in bio.

Super EARLYBIRD ends Thursday 25th July!

Hope to see you there!!

The past week was full on! After a year of planting seeds via my ADHD awareness groups and all the articles I’ve written and podcasts I’ve spoken on I am pleased to report that the seeds are now blooming and I have enquiries and clients booking left, right and centre. I’m almost fully booked and given this is my passion and purpose, this fills my soul with so much joy.

The lesson here is to persevere and don’t give up if it’s your purpose. You know you better than anyone else and what you are here to do. Also stay in your lane people, stay in your lane (iykyk)

To find out more about the popular ADHD awareness groups, coaching and acceptance offered please visit www.findyourspark.co.uk

ADHD Awareness Group 09/06/2024

Running my ADHD awareness group again on 24th June and happy to say it’s 50% sold out already! I have now supported over 250 people via the 10 groups I have run and one to one and it is one of my greatest pleasures to do so.

The reason I do what I do is because I was trying to get help for myself there was NONE for adults, it was all geared towards children so I spent the majority of my twenties and thirties feeling isolated and overwhelmed. I wanted to create something for adults so they didn’t have to go through what I did.

Hence this was born: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/adhd-awareness-group-tickets-916105445047?utm_experiment=test_share_listing&aff=ebdsshios

If you know of anyone who would benefit kindly please do share. Thank you so much!! # # #

ADHD Awareness Group This course is for any adult with an ADHD diagnosis or who suspects they might have ADHD.

😎 Got another group coming up in June!! UPDATE 50% sold out!!!

🤩 Had lots of expressions of interest to run it so there’s clearly a need to know more about ADHD!!!

🥸 This one is specifically for ADULTS. Have one for PARENTS coming up in September.

🤨 The reason why I created and set this group up last year was because when I was looking for help for myself there was nothing for adults. It was all geared towards children. So I felt isolated, misunderstood and overwhelmed as a result.

🧐 If this sounds like you and you’d like to learn more message me or the link to book is in the bio.

😌 Monday June 24th, 7-9pm

😉 Hope to see you there!!!! Remember, you’re not alone, here to help you!!!!!

Did you know?!

That organisation is one of the biggest challenges for someone with ADHD?!

This is because ADHD affects executive function (to do with organisation, planning and prioritising) working memory (to do with remembering instructions and what you have to do daily or for a project) and emotional regulation.

Obviously this does not bode well often times when running a business or an event (funnily enough although it wasn’t that funny at the time, i used to be an events organiser!!)

Thankfully I have learnt systems that work well for me and have teamed up with a VA who helps me with all the things I am challenged by so that I can run a successful coaching business.

If you’d like to learn more message me plus I will be sharing this and more next Wednesday (15th, 6.30 -9.30 pm) and I’d love you to be there!!

Enjoy this sunny ☀️ day today

Here’s the thing and this is something I often battle with which takes a lot of energy tbh. To look at me I look like a girl next door (for the most part) To the point that people still to this day say ‘you don’t/can’t have ADHD, dyspraxia etc…you got a Masters or seem put together’ Yet underneath it all there’s a lot of overwhelm that people don’t see (especially around big crowds and organisation) I am happy to share what this looks like behind the scenes in time. For now, I implore you to educate yourself before you judge or give your opinion. Much like you wouldn’t dismiss a heart attack, don’t dismiss invisible conditions either.

If you’d like to learn more then I’m running a training on 15th May in Colchester which is all about neurodiversity and so much more.

Here’s the link to book by 8th May: https://lnkd.in/ea8hFuaG or click the Eventbrite link in bio.

Hope to see you there!!!

😀 This is the face of someone who was super chuffed delivering online to an organisation a couple weeks back

😀 Went well which is always a relief when you have working memory, executive functioning and emotional regulation issues!!!

😀 But then matched with my creativity, hyperfocus and humour, I was okay 👌🏼

😀 Testimonials received were it changed their perspective of ADHD.

😀 Is this perspective shift something you too would like?! Then message me or comment MORE

☺️ I’ve been a bit quiet on here for various reasons but one being I was focused on delivering an online ADHD awareness session which was global to over 120 people last week.

🤩 It went well but took a lot of energy out of me so slowly coming out the other side after having been on a massive high. I will share some testimonials 🔜

☺️ For now know that I’m delivering this training for the final time for the foreseeable on 15th April. Come along and join us in person in to learn about what ADHD really is.

🧐 This is for you if you have heard that there is something wrong with you if you have ADHD (there isn’t) or that you need to be fixed if you have ADHD (spoiler - you don’t!)

😇 Message me for more details
