Executive Function Coaching
If you’ve ever felt like you need an instruction manual for being a functional adult, executive function coaching might be exactly what you’re looking for.
Executive function coaching is basically having someone in your corner who helps you figure out how to make everyday life work for your particular brain. Not someone who’s going to lecture you about productivity systems that don’t work for you, but someone who actually gets how challenging it can be when your brain doesn’t do the planning and organising thing in the “standard” way.
Here’s what executive function coaching might help with:
- Finally creating a system for managing time that doesn’t make you want to cry
- Breaking down overwhelming tasks into pieces that actually feel doable
- Developing routines that support you instead of adding more pressure
- Managing decision fatigue and overwhelm
- Building memory aids and motivational strategies that work for your specific brain
- Learning to work with your natural rhythms instead of fighting them
This kind of coaching is particularly helpful for people with ADHD, autism, or other forms of neurodivergence, but honestly, anyone who struggles with the executive function side of life can benefit.
The beautiful thing about good executive function coaching is that it’s not about forcing you to become someone you’re not. It’s not about implementing someone else’s productivity system or making you feel bad about the ways you’ve been “failing” at life.
Instead, it’s about understanding how you naturally function and then building personalised strategies around that. It’s collaborative, practical, and focused on what actually works in your real life — not what looks good on Instagram.
A good coach will meet you where you are, work at your pace, and help you build systems that feel sustainable rather than overwhelming. Because the goal isn’t perfection — it’s helping life feel more manageable and less like you’re constantly fighting an uphill battle.
