Hi, I’m Lizzie. I’m a Life and ADHD Coach.
We’ll work in your own way to create a life with more joy, with more love, and with more ease.
In other words
Let’s get your shit together.
About You
-
I work with adults with ADHD to rediscover what it means to live a life you enjoy. For some that means a complete turnaround, and for others it means discovering peace with who you are. For most, it’s both.
I have firsthand experience of feeling lost after realising that you don’t know what it is to be excited by your life anymore. Or the guilt when you realise you’ve stopped allowing yourself to succeed.
I want to work with you if you are excited to get curious, to play, and to go on a journey to find your own acceptance and true authentic joy.
My clients have ranged from students to business owners, from just-starting-out entrepreneurs to C-Suite executives, from people struggling with a lifetime of debt to HNWIs.
I coach life first. That means that whatever happens, your life, your own personal experience, is centre of all the work we do.
I also swear a lot. If that’s not for you, that’s okay. I probably won’t stop.
-
Working together, we can accomplish what seemed impossible. The real world results that some of my clients have accomplished include -
Getting organised
Finding more time
Improving relationships with friends and loved ones
Learning to love themselves
Learning to trust themselves
Experiencing more joy
Reducing stress
Reducing overwhelm
Setting boundaries that support them
Developing a support system
Creating and achieving your hopes, dreams, and goals
Starting new business
Getting better results at work
Experiencing ease
And all of these things can be easy!
Because we don’t just focus on the how. Most of us have gotten excited about tidying the kitchen, or rearranging our calendar, or starting a new exercise routine. But when we work together, we’ll uncover what stopped you from continuing.
I like to focus on the who, not the how.
Who are you with more time? What’s possible when you make time for yourself?
Who are you when you’re not stressed? What strengths are you using when you can experience a moment of calm?
Who are you when you truly understand your beautiful, creative, excited, interested brain? I’ll bet you can accomplish anything.
-
If you’re unsure of your next step, or you know what you would like it to be but something is getting in the way.
If you can’t remember what ignites you, or need to reconnect with your drive.
If you just want to figure out how the hell to be a little bit happier, because right now you feel stuck.
If you’re sick of people telling you what you should do, and just want to figure out what works.
I work from a strength-based perspective, learning about your strengths and values in order to discover what really gets you excited.
-
Coaching is a partnership first and foremost. Together we explore where you’re at, where you want to be, and how you’re going to get there. Easy!
We’ll uncover what it is you really (really!) want. We’ll begin by discovering your strengths, and exploring your accomplishments. Often these are hidden beneath ‘yeah but’, ‘I should have’, ‘If I had only tried harder’. We will celebrate all of it without the ‘but’.
We’ll meet together one to one, to explore together how you can move towards your goals. We’ll examine the barriers, and the bridges we can build to get past them. We will learn how your own specific brain works, and how to work with it, not around it.
I am endlessly curious, and deeply loving. I am also prone to tangents and leaps in logic. Your safety is my highest priority. I approach each session with love and acceptance. You will never be judged in our work together, and my hope is that you will learn to interact with yourself in that same way - with love, acceptance, and curiosity.
About Me
-
When a dear friend first recommended I talk to her life coach, I agreed to give it a shot, while simultaneously resigned to it being some LA woo-woo, for people with tiny dogs, complicated Starbucks orders, who probably run multiple six-figure businesses.
It turns out that wasn’t true.
I decided to continue working with her. I knew that I loved my job because of the people, the celebration, the excitement of learning and discovery. I knew that I wanted to do something new and exciting. Three months of coaching later, I realised - I wanted to be a Life Coach. With great patience, she responded ‘Finally, I’m glad you finally got there too!’.
I love to celebrate with people. I love to meet people, I love to learn. And I love having the opportunity to watch the people I work with learn to love themselves, to discover and achieve their wildest dreams.
-
When I was diagnosed with ADHD, so much clicked into place. Why I never completed university, why I was so creative yet found it so hard to create anything, why my laundry is never done (I’m working on the last one!). The truth - my brain is wired different, so I have to work differently to get the results I want.
My journey of discovery is what inspired me to start coaching, so I can hold my hand out to you, the way I needed when I felt like I was drowning.
I am trained with ADDCA, an ICF and PAAC accrediting coaching school. The knowledge and experience that I received is a constant reminder of how important this mission is.
-
I felt like I should include a third section to balance the page out, but I’m really not sure what to write here.
I have two cats, and live in Scotland.
I speak English, Welsh, terrible French, and I can swear in Swedish.
I used to play flute, but never figured out how to breathe properly. I can play a single note on the violin.

I’m based in Scotland, but I coach entirely online, via Zoom. This means that I can work with clients anywhere in the world, as long as we can find a time that suits both of our timezones.
-
No.
I often recommend my clients work with a therapist in tandem with coaching. When we explore barriers to your progress, quite often we will uncover healing that needs to be done.
Therapy is a tool for healing, and coaching is a tool for moving forward. While each may cross into the other at times, they are also very different.
-
No, and also sort of. Most of the work from coaching happens outside of our sessions - we’ll often look for practices, experiments, and things to try during our session, and through the week you’ll give it a go.
The important part -
Practices, Experiments, and Try - Your life, your brain wiring, what works for you and what doesn’t, it’s all individual. If something doesn’t work, then we’ll try something else.
