Write Your Own Manual – for people with ADHD
Write Your Own Manual: A program for adults with ADHD
Finding what works for you and creating practical solutions
The Write Your Own Manual program is a structured six-session process designed specifically for adults with ADHD who want to work with their unique brain rather than against it. Through guided exercises and personal reflection, participants create their own personalized manual—a practical toolkit identifying strengths, values, and effective strategies tailored to their neurodivergent thinking patterns. Unlike generic advice that rarely works for ADHD minds, this program helps you discover what genuinely works for you through real-world application and thoughtful reflection.
A systematic approach to building your manual
Each session builds systematically toward creating your comprehensive manual: Sessions One and Two focus on gathering insights about your values, strengths, and ideal working environments; Sessions Three and Four guide you through applying this knowledge to achieve a specific goal you care about; and Session Five teaches you effective ways to communicate your needs and preferences to others. The program concludes with Session Six, where you solidify your personalized toolkit and learn how to continue refining your manual as you grow and your circumstances change.
Working with your brain, not against it
The WYOM approach is fundamentally non-judgmental, emphasizing that there's no 'right way' to function—only what works for your unique brain. Instead of struggling with strategies designed for neurotypical thinking, you'll identify your ADHD advantages, discover your optimal environment for success, learn energy management techniques that match your natural rhythms, and develop scaffolding that makes success easier rather than harder. This practical approach helps transform insights into meaningful change across work, relationships, and personal goals.
Personalized guidance and support
Guided by either Judith or Anna, each participant receives personalized support through coaching sessions that complement the structured materials. The program combines independent work with regular check-ins, allowing for customization to your specific needs while maintaining the accountability that many with ADHD find beneficial. Both coaches bring extensive experience working with neurodivergent adults and understand the unique challenges and strengths that come with ADHD.
A lifetime resource for continued growth
Participants complete the program with not just theoretical knowledge but a concrete, personalized manual they can reference and update throughout their lives. This resource becomes particularly valuable during challenging transitions or when facing new obstacles, providing tested strategies rather than starting from scratch each time. The WYOM program ultimately empowers you to work confidently with your natural thinking style, creating lasting positive change that evolves with you through different life stages and circumstances.

The program naturally extends its benefits beyond the individual participants to enhance team dynamics, communication patterns, and organizational effectiveness.
Creating inclusive workplaces that leverage diverse thinking

Guided by experienced facilitators, participants receive professional support through coaching sessions that complement the structured materials.
