Embrace Self-Compassion

  • Course
  • 15 Lessons

Part of my Clear Forward Tools™ course for adults navigating ADHD in their own way, whether you are newly diagnosed, exploring traits, or somewhere in between.

This course supports you to quiet the inner critic and begin relating to yourself with more softness, understanding, and emotional safety.

Inside this course, you will gain:

  • insight into how self-criticism often develops through an ADHD lens and why pressure and perfectionism tend to backfire

  • understanding of how shame and comparison can shape motivation and confidence

  • practical tools to soften negative self-talk and build a kinder internal voice

This course is for you if you want to move through life with more warmth and far less judgement. When progress is grounded in compassion rather than criticism, change can begin to feel safer and more sustainable.
