Jonathan French ADHD Coaching

I manage or mask my ADHD better than most. However, as an adult diagnosed with ADHD back in my forties, aside from medication and some cognitive behaviour therapies, I've not done much to review and see if I can still optimize my behaviours. Jonathan offered advice to me that worked and helped move me forward. He helped me realize that yes, scaffolding is great, but as ADHD person you can task switch and do another thing that might be better match to my mood and energy. A small step is still a step forward, and to practise self partnership as an internal cheerleader when the negative, critical voices speak up. Easy to speak to, understanding, and patient. Would see him again.

Jon always helps me find tangible approaches to my goals; be they in day-to-day activities, my career, or any other forms of personal development. He’s an attentive and patient listener who never fails to engage with my ideas earnestly and has a knack for building upon them and/or offering a totally fresh perspective therein. If you could use a hand in sorting out any part of your life that feels overly complicated, then I highly recommend working with Jon!

My discovery of Jon's coaching service levelled up my approach to my graduate studies and life more generally. After working with Jon I found more joy and pleasure in the day-to-day since I could better appreciate how ADHD is a strength for me and for the things I like to do. Coaching is a great avenue for the highly-sensitive, under-confident and over-achieving folks who are learning to navigate their neuro-divergence in this complicated world.

I'm a highly sensitive, empathic, right-brained, creative solo entrepreneur, and was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. While the diagnosis finally made my life make sense to me in a way it never had, I was still swimming in the kind of doubt and self-judgment that many of us have for being "different." The coaching I did with Jonathan made me feel like I was actually way more than enough and that the things I experienced were normal in the face of a neuro-normal world. I found my sense of confidence in what I DO bring to the world grow, and I had someone to bounce ideas off of when navigating decisions requiring more executive functioning skills. Jonathan truly taught me that I can do things my own way, and that's nothing to be ashamed of. His skills of empathy, intuition, humor, flexibility, and experience made me feel I was in good hands. I most highly recommend Jonathan's unique coaching sessions to any ADHD entrepreneur.
