I love working with entrepreneurs, professionals, innovators and creators. Many are passionate about what they do and feel a deep need to deliver value to the world. While they often want to make their world a better place, they feel brilliantly stuck.
Their creativity means that they see a myriad of possibilities. Often they are working towards solving problems that others cannot ‘see’ in ways that are innovative and challenge convention.
They redefine ‘Blue Sky Thinking’.
However,
Their biggest issues often relate to containing the many possibilities, clearly defining their goals and working consistently towards achieve success.
Do any of these sound familiar?
Your creative brain comes up with new ideas to explore way faster than you can actually explore them.
Your creative brain often actually impedes progress
Goals feel vague, indistinct and are frequently changing. The goalposts just don’t seem to ever stand still. Sometimes, they simply disappear altogether.
Whilst it’s sometimes possible to get into a flow state, it is difficult to be productive consistently.
Juggling so many things makes progress patchy and prioritising difficult. It’s easy to start feeling overwhelmed
One of the keys to harnessing the strengths that ADHD can bring is clearly determining our goals. Creating a clear vision of what success will look like and, more importantly, feel like. Determining how we will know that we have succeeded and breaking down the goal into the action steps required to get there. Then building the supports that are needed to make consistent and effective progress.

In the past, I spent a lot of time wandering in the ADHD ‘wastelands’. I have the ‘squiggly’ career path of someone struggling, not only to find and harness his strengths but also to find frameworks within which those strengths can be used to find the fullest expression of who I truly am and to indeed, finally, fulfil my greatest potential.
Now, I deliver the greatest coaching value to clients who;
Recognise that their ‘ship’ isn’t going to come in on its own but instead have to go out, find that ship, make it their own, hoist the sails and navigate it themselves to wherever it is they want to be. They know they can do it; they just need to work out how.
Are willing to dig in, prioritise themselves and their need for personal growth and do ‘the work’.
Know that the unfulfilled potential they know deep down they have is capable of propelling them towards the life they want to have if they choose to harness it.
Client Success Stories
Charlie
Before I started coaching the biggest challenge in my mind was not being able to understand why everything seemed so simple for everyone else. It seemed quite hard for me. Why, for example, did no one else seem to get as stressed as I did over things, why did no one else experience the amount of burnout that I experienced. The biggest challenges were always….[read more]

Before coaching with Tony I didn't fully understand the different elements of ADHD and how much it was impacting my life. I didn’t realise that the emotional aspects of ADHD played such a significant role in my challenges. Before I understood this life was ….[read more]
