Coaching Those Desperate for ADHD Solutions

Coaching can be difficult to understand. Often those with ADHD are desperate for answers. They’re looking to be pointed in the direction of solutions in a simple fashion. In the end, it doesn’t work that way. Simple and desperate are just concepts that don’t work together. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, our guest Dr. Kirsten Milliken (http://playdhd.com), amazingly articulates some of the challenges of understanding ADHD and why it works, but we also hear her experience and the power of it. If you’re on the fence with regard to ADHD coaching and want to gain some insight from an individual who is in the trenches and confused, this is a show you won’t want to miss.

ADHD can easily be thought of as a magnet. It’s either attracted to something or repels something. In this context, we begin to understand the challenges of self-regulation. The magnet is a magnet; you can’t change its forces. How do you work with it? ADHD is ADHD; you can’t change the biology. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, Caroline Maguire (http://necoaching.com) and Jeff Copper (http://digcoaching.com) discuss using magnets as a metaphor to observe ADHD behavior and transition to just how one can use the concept of a magnet to work with it and not against it.
