About this Event

Event details

A practical, energising workshop to help ADHD entrepreneurs turn chaos into clarity — with tools that work for real business life.
Plus, two follow-up coaching sessions to keep progress on track. We will send you a Teams invite for the follow-ups.
Follow-up virtual group coaching sessions (on Microsoft Teams):
- Session 1: 11am - 12noon on Tuesday 28th July
- Session 2: 11am-12noon on Tuesday 25th August


About the Workshop

Running a business with ADHD can feel like having a Ferrari with Bicycle brakes.
This 3-hour interactive workshop helps you harness your ADHD strengths, manage the challenges, and design ways of working that fit better with your brain.
You’ll leave with practical tools you can use the same day — plus follow-up coaching to keep you accountable and supported as you apply what you learn.


What You’ll Learn

- Understand your ADHD wiring – how it shows up in business and why traditional advice doesn’t always work
- Play to your strengths – creativity, energy, resilience, and hyperfocus as competitive advantages
- Tackle key challenges – procrastination, time-blindness, overwhelm, and decision fatigue
- Use practical tools – chunking, timers, body-doubling, prioritisation and focus frameworks
- Redesign your environment – systems and structures that work with your ADHD, not against it
- Build supportive habits – accountability, peer support, and simple routines that stick


Beyond the Workshop

Your learning continues with two virtual group-coaching sessions, designed to help you embed change and share progress with peers:
1. Session 1 (28th July): From Awareness to Action — celebrate quick wins, troubleshoot challenges, and refine your personal systems.
2. Session 2 and 3 (25th August): Keeping Momentum — sustain progress, adapt for busy seasons, and design your ongoing ADHD success toolkit.


Who It’s For

Entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small-business owners who:
- Have been diagnosed or identify with ADHD, or
- Suspect they may be neurodiverse and want to work with their brain, not against it.
No formal diagnosis required — just curiosity and a willingness to experiment.
