  • 292. 3x Your Revenue with ADHD with Brenda Miranda, ADHD Coach & Therapist

    Today on the show I'm talking with a Show Up Real client who has tripled her revenue and doubled her following inside of Show Up Real. Brenda Miranda isn’t just an ADHD coach and therapist, she’s a late-diagnosed ADHD woman who truly gets it. As a first-generation Latina, she knows firsthand the struggle of balancing cultural expectations, big ambitions, and a brain that doesn’t always cooperate.


    After years of frustration, unfinished projects, and burnout, her own ADHD diagnosis changed everything. With over 13 years in mental health, Brenda has made it her mission to help late-diagnosed ADHD women break free from self-doubt, overwhelm, and the constant battle of trying to “do things the right way.”

    Her approach goes beyond just productivity hacks, she blends mindset shifts, emotional support, and ADHD-friendly strategies that actually work. Brenda helps her clients work with their brains, not against them, so they can finally follow through, stay focused, and turn their ideas into action—without burnout.

    Whether you’re a professional trying to thrive in your career or an entrepreneur looking to grow your business, Brenda is committed to helping you harness your strengths, focus your energy, and finally make things happen.
