  Moodiness, irritability, and anger are just some of the characteristics of this brain-based challenge. Not only do you experience a roller coaster of emotions, you can go from zero to 100 in a second. And then stay at 100 much longer than you’d like.Learning to ride these waves of emotional reactivity is critically important to getting started on tasks, completing them, making wise choices in the moment, and nurturing your most important relationships.The degree to which you are skilled with...

  ADHD is an equal opportunist. It cuts across all socio-economic groups and when it’s untreated, the suffering is real.I work with professionals and executives who live with ADHD. Yes, they have ADHD too.This might sound contradictory. How can someone so accomplished have ADHD?When I attended the 2023 annual CADDRA Conference in Montreal, I heard the organizers’ excitement about future conferences focusing on the impact of untreated ADHD. (By ‘untreated’ they were referring to medical...

  Proving vs. Being: Achieve Your Career Goals

  In a competitive environment, everyone’s out to prove themselves. But when everyone is scrambling for the higher ground, it creates a culture of fear. And fear breeds scarcity. If one executive gets a promotion, it’s necessarily at the expense of someone else. The prevailing mood is that there’s simply not enough to go around.Proving is endemic in executive and professional circles: “I need to prove my value. Provide tangible evidence that I’m worthy of that new position.”With this...

  We all want to feel powerful in our own lives. We want to know that we can make a difference in our experience. We want to act with confidence when we need to, and we want to have all the inner and outer tools for managing any set of circumstances.And yet, our personal agency can feel chipped away at, eroded, and undermined – in so many ways.Invalidation is toxic to agency. And it’s endemic. It’s in the media, politics, the workplace and intimate relationships. When you’re not seen as...

  You Want a C-Suite Position? Be a Transformational Leader

  My clients want to create outcomes that at first seem impossible. They have an inkling of where they want to go, but they have little idea about how to get there. They want to rise in their careers – perhaps even to C-Suite positions – and wonder what it will take to make that dream a reality. Increasingly, the leadership qualities that companies look for are the ‘softer skills’ of savvy social adeptness. C-Suite leaders must be transformational, not just transactional.Leadership has...

  When You Always Want More: Satisfy Your Wanting Mind

  I remember Christmas Eve as a child. I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep. I wanted to be awake every second until the morning came. I didn’t want to miss anything! But inevitably I’d arrive at the Christmas tree the next morning, bleary-eyed and still feeling like I’d missed something important.My wanting mind had taken over and robbed me of being fully awake when it counted. And every year I’d repeat the same pattern.This ‘wanting mind’ is still familiar to me as an adult.How...
