Welcome to a panel episode of ADHD-ish, where I am joined by fellow business coaches Justine Clay, and Stephanie Wasylyk, who also work with creatives, entrepreneurs and small business owners that identify with ADHD. 

The three of us met in Meg Casebolt’s SEO membership community, The Content Love Lab. 

In this lively and insightful conversation, we explore how ADHD can shape who we are without solely defining us, and offer valuable strategies for creating inclusive, ADHD-friendly environments, both personally and professionally. 

Experimentation, flexibility, the right level of structure and understanding there is not only no one size fits all tools for neurotypicals, there aren’t for those with ADHD tendencies either. 

Finding the right strategies and the right coach means honoring what works for you, not fitting into someone's cookie-cutter program.   

Episode Highlights:

🏡 Creating ADHD-Friendly Spaces: Stephanie highlights the importance of inclusive environments that cater to diverse learning styles.

She shares her experiences in making her coaching practices welcoming for everyone, regardless of neurodivergence. I suggested that Justine, Stephanie and other inclusivity champions are "ADHD enthusiasts."

🎨 Inclusive Coaching Strategies: Justine shares her evolution in ADHD coaching, from niche marketing to a more encompassing approach that considers clients' preferred learning and processing styles.

She includes an optional neurodivergence question in her intake process, ensuring she meets her clients where they are.

🌈 ADHD as a Part of Identity:  We take a close look at how ADHD shapes but doesn't define a person. Diann likens it to a color in a stained glass window—impactful but not the whole picture.

Stephanie cautions against limiting self-perception based solely on ADHD, emphasizing collaboration with a predominantly neurotypical world.
