Hi, I'm Merle,
an ADHD coach.
I'm so glad
you're here!


You've always known you have it in you SOMEWHERE to inspire the world with your love, energy, and fantastic ideas. When you received your later-in-life diagnosis of ADHD, the head-scratching incongruity of your God-given gifts and cherished aspirations contrasted with your painful, failure-laden track record -- well, it finally made sense!​

A Brilliant Mess
​
But now what? How do you pick up the pieces of a life ravaged by executive functioning liabilities you didn't even know you had? ADHD is genetic; it's not your fault. You can't say you haven't tried to better yourself -- you've always worked hard at self-improvement. Sometimes too hard. And let's face it, sometimes you resent the people around you who seem to succeed with far less effort.
