100% agree that no coaching fixes ADHD. ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that for the most part will be with us for our entire life. However, we do have the ability to manage our symptoms and set up the environment around us to make it a bit better for us!

For example, something super small but I've been working with my coach to set my room up so that it's harder for it to get and stay messy. I've - put up these cute hooks all over my room to put up hats and clothes so they don't get thrown on the floor - put a laundry basket in each of my closet, bathroom, and bedroom - switched my closed wardrobe to an open-concept hanging closet (which was so much cheaper too!) so I can see all my clothes in one place which is less overwhelming and messy, since I'm not pulling all my clothes out each time - switched my waterbottle to a straw-system so I actually get my 2 bottles a day

... the list goes on, the more I can settle and make "auto-pilot", my life gets a bit easier to manage
