ADHD Coach

I’m an ADHD coach who believes meaningful change sticks when it’s rooted in our values and in how we actually work, not in how we think we should.

Now I work with smart, deeply capable, and scattered minds who want sustainable ways to function and move toward that matters most—without burning out or betraying themselves.

Jake Pardee
Certified Coach & Facilitator

I am passionate about reconnecting people with their courageous, generous nature. My first job was at a nonprofit with a social-change mission; when I got there I quickly noticed how all my colleagues were burning (or already burnt) out, with little support to reclaim their energy. What I saw made me distressed about the future of our justice movements and fearful for my career path. Now I support twentysomethings and changemakers whose paths are unclear or unsustainable to connect with their purpose so they can live courageous, fulfilling lives. When I’m not coaching you can find me playing basketball, eating sandwiches, and touching grass. 

What do you love about working with your clients?

Their wisdom! Every coaching session uncovers some unique wisdom that the client holds and I get to be there to learn with them. It's an immense privilege.

John Barrie
Leadership and Performance Coach

John Barrie works with clients who are successful, motivated to improve, will listen to other points of view, and vulnerable enough to answer powerful questions and reflect deeply. John supports clients with goal setting, earning promotions/more money, improving interpersonal skills/relationships, OR figuring out how to work less and have more space for family, friends, fun and creativity.

Why do you refer clients to focused space?

Because focused space has unlocked the value of deep focused work for me and I want to share that experience with others.
