“ADHD burnout isn’t laziness or lack of resilience. It’s what happens when the brain’s energy systems get pushed beyond capacity - and the world keeps asking for more.” – Phil Lunt MSc

Support your clients with Clarity, Compassion, and Confidence

A science-backed, self-paced training designed to help you:

The ‘Coast → Cane → Collapse’ cycle that so many clients unknowingly live in
The role of masking, hyperfocus, perfectionism and “people pleasing” in draining cognitive and emotional resources
