Have you ever had a client say, “Yes, that’s exactly it. You get it.” Shared lived experience, including having ADHD ourselves, helps ADHD coaches create those moments by enabling us to recognize patterns quickly, understand challenges intuitively, and connect with clients in ways that foster rapport. But shared wiring does not make us neutral. Because coaching is relational, our ADHD traits, values, and lived experiences shape how we interpret what clients share and what we notice and pursue. Awareness of these influences helps coaches maintain curiosity, ask better questions, and support stronger client outcomes. This interactive session invites participants to examine how shared neurotype, personal values, and lived experience influence attention and direction in coaching. Through guided reflection and micro-coaching exchanges, participants will: Identify ADHD patterns and core values that arise in coaching sessions Recognize cues that signal these patterns during coaching Notice when empathic resonance shifts into interpretive certainty—when curiosity narrows and opportunities for deeper inquiry are missed Coaches will leave with tools to recognize bias as it arises, regulate it in real time, and return to client-centered inquiry. The aim is not to eliminate bias, but to ensure that lived experience informs coaching without directing it.
