You are in the right place!
What you can expect from this free webinar
Three steps for living better with Adult ADHD
One of the best things you can do for yourself as an ADHDer is
to learn the neurodiversity-affirming way to understand your ADHD, and unlearn a lot of the unhelpful stereotypes and productivity "hacks" that don't actually work for ADHD. So much of the medical literature about ADHD fails to describe what it's like to actually live with ADHD, it just describes observable behaviours (of hyper little boys... no wonder ADHD is still missed in so many women and girls!). And all too often diagnosis, a prescription for pills... and that's it.
I started Affirming ADHD because there's so much more to the ADHD story, and it's about understanding and working with our brains.
In this free webinar, I will share my "inside out" explanation of ADHD - told from the perspective of someone who received a diagnosis of ADHD as an adult.
1
WHAT IS ADHD REALLY: What the diagnosis doesn't tell you.
2
IS IT ME OR ADHD: How recognising your ADHD can rewrite your life story.
3
YOU'RE NOT BROKEN: How a neurodiversity affirming lens can empower you.
ABOUT SARAH
I know what it's like to get an adult ADHD diagnosis.
Hi! I'm Sarah. I help adults with ADHD and parents of ADHD kiddos find their way towards a happier life.
I’m an educator, writer and coach with a background in Psychology and Counselling. I worked with kids and families for years, especially kids with a lot of complexity in their lives, like trauma, family separation and neurodivergence. But even with all that professional knowledge, my life was flipped upside down a few years ago when I got my own ADHD diagnosis. That was when I really got it with my whole heart, not just my head!
I started Affirming ADHD to support others like me who discovered their ADHD in adulthood, or are raising ADHD and neurodivergent kiddos. Because all of us deserve to know what it feels like to be affirmed, instead of shut down, for the ADHD bright sparks we are.
I am proudly ADHD, and proudly neurodiversity affirming.

Here's what past participants said about Making Sense of Adult ADHD, our group program.
Sarah clearly got across and demonstrated by modelling how truly self-compassion is the silver bullet for dealing with ADHD. She also offered a plethora of info and resources which was so valuable.
Marija, Sept 2023
Making Sense of Adult ADHD made me a bit more accepting of my neurospicy brain. And gave me the agency to ask for what I need more than I did before.
Susannah, Sept 2023
The program helped me to stop feeling like I was using ADHD as an excuse, that it really exists and if people don't accept me or my traits for what it is, it is their problem.
