One of the biggest lessons I've learned through understanding my ADHD is that I don't have to do things the way everyone else does.

For a long time, I thought there was one "right" way to get organised, stay on top of things and manage life. When those approaches didn't work for me, I assumed I just needed to try harder.

Over time, I realised I didn't have to do things the way everyone else did. I needed to find what worked for me.

That might mean working in shorter bursts because my concentration comes and goes. It might mean making the most of a moment when I'm focused, rather than stopping because I feel like I "should" be doing something else. It might mean using reminders, visual prompts or asking for support instead of expecting myself to remember everything.

That's what finding what works for me has looked like.

The more I've understood my ADHD, the more I've realised that success isn't about looking like everyone else. It's about creating a life that works for you.

I'd love to know...

I love sharing simple tools and approaches that can help busy ADHD brains.

Mid-Week Mini Resets are small pauses you can dip into to slow things down and refocus when your mind feels busy.
Try them out and let me know what you think!

This week’s reset: Grounding Object

Hold something grounding - a stone, fidget, or soft fabric. Notice how it feels - the texture, temperature, and weight - and let your attention rest there for a few seconds.

Why it helps: Why it helps: ADHD minds can drift easily. A sensory object provides a simple, tangible anchor that keeps you connected to the moment.

Not every reset I share will be right for you - and that’s okay.
Think of these as ideas to try out, tweak, or leave behind, depending on what actually helps you.

This is just one of the many practical reset ideas I share in The ADHD Pocket Reset.

The book is designed to support ADHD brains in real life - with gentle, doable tools you can dip into when things feel overwhelming, restless, or hard to settle. It’s not about doing everything or doing it “properly”, but about building a personalised toolkit of resets that work for you.

One of the things I love about coaching is seeing women discover approaches that genuinely work for them.

So often, we spend years trying to do things the way we think we should, only to end up feeling frustrated when those approaches don't fit the way our brains work.

Sarah shared this after our coaching sessions:
"Liz's coaching was incredibly valuable. As someone with undiagnosed ADHD, I often struggled to focus and let creativity slip away. Her mindful art techniques helped me reconnect with creativity in a gentle, doable way. I always left our sessions feeling calmer, clearer, and like I'd truly made time for myself. Liz is warm, relatable, and deeply understanding of women with ADHD."

What I love most about Sarah's feedback is that she discovered approaches that felt gentle, doable and right for her. That's always my hope for the women I work with.

How do you know if ADHD coaching is right for you?

It's a question I'm asked quite often, and the honest answer is that it's different for everyone.

I find it often comes down to how you're feeling, rather than where you are in your ADHD journey.

Coaching might be right for you if...
• You feel like you've reached a point where you're ready to understand yourself better.
• You're tired of trying to figure everything out on your own.
• You know something needs to change, but you're not sure where to start.
• You'd like support that's tailored to you, rather than generic advice.
• You're looking for a space where you can be completely yourself, without judgement.

If any of this sounds familiar, ADHD coaching could be a good fit for you.
Sometimes the first step is simply having a conversation.

One of the biggest things that changed for me after discovering I had ADHD and autism was the way I spoke to myself.

For years, I automatically assumed I was the problem, asking myself questions like...

"What's wrong with me?"
"Why is this so much harder for me than everyone else?"
"Why can't I just do the thing?"

Over time, I realised I needed to change the questions I was asking myself. That helped me become much more compassionate and supportive towards myself, instead of constantly looking for what was wrong. It shifted my focus from trying to force myself to do things differently, to becoming more curious about what I actually needed.

These are some of the questions I come back to whenever I'm finding things difficult. They don't give me all the answers, but they do help me approach myself with a little more curiosity and compassion.

Is there another question you'd add to the list?

This week’s reset: Glimpse of Nature
Step outside for two minutes. Notice the sky, air, and sounds around you - even if it’s just through a window. Maybe spot a cloud shape, a bird, or a leaf moving in the breeze.

Why it helps: Nature exposure, even in tiny doses, helps reduce sensory overload and resets your attention naturally.

I'm curious to know...

What's one thing that started to make more sense once you learned about your ADHD?

It might have been something small. Perhaps you realised why you've always found certain things exhausting, or why some strategies never seemed to work for you. Maybe you stopped comparing yourself to everyone else, or finally understood something about yourself that you'd never been able to put into words before.

For me, those moments of understanding have made such a difference. Not because they've solved everything, but because they've helped me approach myself with a little more curiosity and compassion.

I'd love to hear what that has been for you.

You never know... your experience might be exactly what someone else needs to read today.

For years, I thought I just needed to try harder.

I was always looking for the next planner, the next routine or the next system that was finally going to help me get organised, stay on top of things and become the person I thought I was supposed to be. When those things didn't work, I assumed the problem was me. I just needed to try harder.

It wasn't until I began to understand my ADHD that I realised I'd been asking myself the wrong questions. Instead of asking, "Why can't I do this?" or "What's wrong with me?" I started asking, "What would make this easier?"

That shift changed so much. I stopped expecting myself to do things the way everyone else did and became much more interested in understanding what worked for me.

Life isn't suddenly easy, and I still have days where things feel hard. But I no longer measure myself against someone else's way of doing things. Instead, I keep coming back to the same question: What do I need right now?

For me, that's one of the biggest gifts that has come from understanding my ADHD, because it helps me approach myself with a little more curiosity and compassion.

I'd love to know...
Has there been one shift in the way you think about your ADHD that's made life feel a little easier?

One of the things I love most about coaching is watching women realise they don't have to keep trying to do things the way everyone else does.

Teresa shared something that really stayed with me after we worked together.
"Before coaching with Liz, I thought relaxation meant bubble baths or meditating in silence – things that never worked for my ADHD brain."

For so many women, the challenge isn't that they're doing self-care "wrong".
It's that they've been trying to follow advice that was never designed for their brain in the first place.

Teresa went on to say:
"Liz showed me calm can come from creative, flexible tools like doodling or gentle movement. She listened without judgement, helped me build a toolbox that works for me, and reminded me I don't have to copy others – I can create my own version of calm."

I think that's such an important reminder.

There isn't one right way to support yourself.

The most valuable thing is finding what genuinely works for you.

I'll have a small number of one-to-one coaching spaces available from September.

This week’s reset: Palm Press
Press your palms together gently but firmly for a few seconds, then release as you exhale.
Repeat this as many times as you like, keeping your breath slow and steady.

Why it helps: The firm pressure gives grounding sensory input and activates calming pathways in the body. It helps you feel centred and present.

Not every reset I share will be right for you - and that’s okay.
