"Neurodivergent people are the canary in the coal mine"
...When we struggle, it’s usually the environment, the routines, the culture that need a redesign, not us.
(Autistic advocate Freestone Wilson first used this metaphor in the 1990s: canaries aren’t weak, they’re sensitive. Their distress signals danger in the air. The same is true for neurodivergent people in unhealthy systems.)
What status quo have you normalized that deserves to be questioned?
Sensory First.
PSA: We don’t focus, plan, prioritize, get started on tasks, or remember well when our nervous systems are stuck in low grade fight-flight-freeze from:
- fluorescent lights
- open-office chatter
- constant tech pings
- visual chaos and uncomfortable spaces, etc.
Sensory Dysregulation = Less Capacity for What Matters
That’s why sensory informed coaching matters.
It’s about creating environments and adapting tools so you can regulate & your executive functioning... can actually function.
My Approach
I bring a rare combination of frameworks designed for neurospicy brains:
- Executive functioning coaching
- Sensory-informed support
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) principles: moving forward without endlessly dissecting the past
- Social prescribing: weaving art, nature, & community into your routines as fuel for wellbeing
The NeuroAuthentiq Difference
- You’re the expert; I’m a creative collaborator, & sometimes body-double to overcome task initiation challenges
- Practical curated tools that fit your wiring
- Capacity-building strategies that amplify your strengths, traits, & values
- Community included: 1:1 clients also get access to group calls that accellerate progress
Is this you?
My Clients are often:
- Late diagnosed ADHD or autistic adults
- Creatives and entrepreneurs struggling with follow-through
- Rebels who question the status quo and want life on their own terms
- Professionals drained by rigid work environments
- Rocking a “spiky profile”: brilliant in some areas, challenged in others
- Anyone wrestling with time blindness, task initiation, & organization
- Over stimulated in many environments that others seem fine in
If any of this feels familiar, you’re in the right place.
