2eHub Anne Jackson I have been counselling and advocating for and with the twice-exceptional young person for many years. These are young people who are gifted as defined by Gagne’s model of talent development but who also carry an identified disability. Currently I am completing my Doctor of Cognitive Neurodiversity and have been fortunate enough to specialise in the student who carries giftedness and ADHD in the same body. To engage with these wonderfully complex young people I use a combination of Narrative Therapy and ACT as the gifted student is highly likely to bamboozle a counsellor who uses a more directive modality. Such young people may become engaged in a verbal debate over all the reasons that change cannot happen or that change requires others to do something but not them. The result is that many twice-exceptional students will fail to achieve their potential and or become involved in risky strategies to deal with their distress. My passion is to engage such young people on a journey whereby they can become the author of their life story. Being gifted yet disabled is an oxymoron that doesn’t have to be a disaster.

Ange Nennie Ange Nennie I’m what you’d call a big personality. Since I can remember, I’ve been known for my boundless enthusiasm, eccentric style, incessant chatter and witty remarks – not to mention, a laugh that can be heard from all four corners of the earth. I’ve also been known for my absent-mindedness, distractibility, chronic tardiness and frenetic pace. In fact, I once rushed my husband to work, only to discover on the way, that he wasn’t even in the car – Oops! So, when I was diagnosed with Combined Type ADHD at 35, I can’t say anyone was surprised. I know my story isn’t unusual. So many of us, women in particular, have struggled all our lives with constant overwhelm and the sense that we’re not living up to our potential, only to discover in our 20’s, 30’s, 40’s and beyond, that there’s a very good reason why. We know we’re capable of incredible things but as one of my gaming clients put it, we’ve been living life on ‘Difficulty: Hard’. I don’t know about you but I’m tired of hard. I want ease. So, when I received my diagnosis, my path was made clear: 1. Understand my ADHD brain 2....

We have a plan to help kids who struggle The Connected Kidz program is founded on the work of Dr Robert Melillo. He has created the leading drug-free program designed to help kids improve focus, behaviour, social skills, anxiety, and academic performance. What's unique about our program is that it goes beyond the more traditional approaches you may have tried before. We offer a solution which gets to the root cause of your child's challenges, instead of simply masking them. How it works To function optimally we need both the left and right hemispheres of the brain to be communicating and working together. When kids struggle with focus, sensory processing and behaviour, it can be a sign that there is a weak connection between the two hemispheres. The good news is, the brain can change, and we can strengthen and build new brain connections. Our coaches specialize in the Hemispherical Integration System, which simply means, they know how to deliver fun and engaging sessions that combine physical, sensory and cognitive activities specifically designed to improve the speed and efficiency of communication pathways within the brain. Once these pathways get firing, the brain is able to improve executive functioning and better complete...

Metamorphosis Coaches Mentoring for parents of students with ADHD Hi, I’m Jahida, a Female Youth Mentor and Personal Development Coach. I am also the Founder and CEO of Metamorphosis Coaching, a school teacher, mother, a certified life coach and a woman devoted to personal development. Growing up, I was an ambitious, teenage girl but I felt there were many cultural barriers limiting me from pursuing my dreams. Since meeting my husband Faz, I challenged the traditional cultural beliefs and stereotypes that a Muslim woman is not capable of having a successful career while being married, staying true to her principles, faith and committed to raising a family. I wore my hijab at the age of 13 in a time where racism in AU was at it’s peak and the September 11 attacks magnified the traumatic effects of Islamophobia. I faced many challenges as a teenager with my identity, feeling like I didn’t belong in this country, I tackled bullying in a school where I was the only scarfed girl and had to form new friendships every couple of years as I moved from school to school. I am very grateful for the two mentors (my father and math's teacher) that...

The ADHD Revolution Sarah Hoff Since 2012, I have been actively involved in decluttering services, starting with the establishment of my Interior Decorating business in 2006 called http://www.insideinspiration2u.com.au. Over the course of seven years, as I provided Interior Decorating and Colour Consulting services, I felt a growing inclination to make a deeper impact on people’s lives. While I assisted clients in transforming their houses into homes, my passion for creating tranquil and serene spaces intensified. This led me to explore the realm of “Professional Organising.” As a busy individual managing a business and raising four children, I intimately understood the overwhelming nature of life within a household of six. I experienced the constant stress of trying to “control” my home and life through yelling, nagging, and striving for order in order to maintain some level of sanity. I also recognized the significant difference in how I felt when my home was organized compared to when it was chaotic. This realization ignited a strong desire within me to help others find peace and calm in their lives by establishing an organized home where everything had its rightful place. Integrating the Organizing Service into my existing Interior Decorating business brought me a sense...

Jane Horan - ADHD Coach based in Melbourne, Australia. Like a lot of women with ADHD I wasn't diagnosed until adulthood and in my case I was diagnosed in my early 40s after one of my children were diagnosed. I started to see many similarities in symptoms and every day challenges that we shared. My story of ADHD will be familiar to many adults who weren't diagnosed until later in life, particularly with my work and academic life. I Forever felt like a square peg trying to fit into a round hole. My diagnosis opened up a new way of life. I finally understood where my ADHD was holding me back and how to go about achieving my goals. I completed my ADHD Coach Training with the ADD Coach Academy, New York and I am currently in the process of obtaining my Associate Coach Certification with the International Coaching Federation. Prior to undertaking ADHD coach training, I worked as a Corporate Technology Trainer in the Legal Industry for 18 years. I work with teens and young adults to establish routines and strategies to support their goals and build self confidence. I can also support parents who are struggling to adapt...
