Learn how to consistently follow through, plan your time, and run your business without burnout
A 12-week executive functioning coaching program for women entrepreneurs with ADHD
You’re amazing at what you do. Here’s how to make running your business feel that way too:
As a multi-passionate woman entrepreneur who cares deeply about your work, you’ve got the passion, expertise, and drive to grow your business. But behind the scenes, you’re overwhelmed, juggling too much, and feeling like you’re constantly falling short.
You imagined entrepreneurship would give you more freedom, more flexibility, and more time with your family.
Instead… it feels like you have 37 (amazing) project ideas buzzing around your brain at all times, getting started on anything feels impossible - especially if you have ADHD.
No one warned you that entrepreneurship is 10% doing you what you actually enjoy and 90% managing your time, energy, priorities, and mindset.
You had no idea how many decisions you’d make daily: what to work on, what to start, what to ignore, when to stop.
Have you said any of these before?
“I have a million ideas and projects I’m excited about!”
You’ll go “all in” on something - full hyperfocus mode - only to have it drop off the radar before you take it across the finish line.
“Why is being self-employed so hard for me when it seems so easy for everyone else?”
There’s constant shame, guilt, and negative self-talk running through your brain, leaving you frustrated and stuck.
“It has to be perfect, or there’s no point in doing it at all.”
You spend way too much time on things trying to get them to be perfect. You want to do your best work, but this isn’t sustainable.
“I’m so overwhelmed. There’s so much to keep track of. How do I even decide what to start on?”
You have lots of great ideas & to-do lists everywhere, but you freeze when it’s time to take action.
”I have no idea what to do with my free time.”
That flexibility you wanted? Now it feels like pressure. You don’t know what to work on, when to stop, or if you’re using your time well.
”Running my business is lonely.”
Your friends and family support you—but they don’t understand what it’s like to run a business.
You deserve to be the “World’s Best Boss” (to yourself)
I didn’t plan to be an entrepreneur. In 2020, I accidentally started my business and left my full-time job as a social worker at a nonprofit. I’d been working part-time as an executive function coach since 2013—I knew how to coach, but I had no idea how run a business!
Being my own boss? Leading myself? Managing an open calendar with no built-in structure? That was a whole different skill set.
I’ll never forget my first day being fully self-employed:
I had a few client sessions and then….A giant, open, terrifyingly empty afternoon.
“What should I do with this time?” Start on a new idea? Work on my newsletter? Plan a project? Stop for the day?
Even as an executive function coach with strong time management, planning, and prioritization skills, I felt stuck.
For a long time, I joked:“I’m the best boss and the worst boss.”
But it wasn’t a joke.I was the best boss when I took the dogs for a walk in the middle of the day or ate lunch on my deck. I was the worst boss when I was working late into the night, “shoulding” myself for not getting enough done, and comparing myself to other businesses on Instagram down a doomscroll rabbit hole.
I didn’t leave my 9-5 to be treated the way I was treating myself, to be building a business in an unsustainable way, to be constantly hustling. To feel chronically overwhelmed and stress.
And you didn’t either.
Imagine…
Prioritizing with clarity & deciding what to work on in your business without spiraling
Taking your projects confidently across the finish line instead of abandoning them
Working more efficiently & leaving work at work (no more late nights or weekends!)
Anticipating challenges and proactively solving problems to avoid burnout and overwhelm
Spending more time with your family and friends because you finally have a life-first business
Here's how I became a better boss to myself:
Being a great boss to myself is an on going work in progress. I am constantly noticing how I think about “productivity,” my self-worth, and how I take action in my business.
It’s taken time, reflection, and practice to create systems that I love & that work for me. I still catch myself in perfectionism and procrastination loops because that’s part of being human - but I have a toolbox that I can lean on when I need it.
In my 11+ years of coaching, I’ve worked with clients who have tried over, and over, and over again to use tools & strategies that don’t work for them because they didn’t have the time, energy, or resources to figure out what would work for them.
It’s not about more willpower or trying harder. Or even getting a new planner, app, or color-coded calendar.
What actually works is having supportive self-talk, systems that work for your brain, community you can lean on.
That’s why I created this small group coaching program, so you have access to resources, strategies, coaching, and like-minded women business owners you can connect with when you’re feeling stuck.
If you’re thinking, “I’ve tried everything and it never works.” Let me ask you, have you used this formula before?
I’m guessing you’ve maybe tried one or two together, but not all three.

Your Life Changing Transformation Starts Here
I watched clients have “AHA” moments time and time again.
Meet Jean, who reached out to learn about coaching when she was feeling overwhelmed with how many goals and projects she was trying to accomplish in her art business:
Client Testimonial
“As a creative, I am constantly coming up with new ideas for projects. I felt that I needed some direction on finding a system or strategy that would help me focus.
Sarah’s thoroughness, intuitiveness, and humor was comforting from the start. Sarah guides you through this process in a way that feels right. It’s not overwhelming & I believe that is a reflection on her ability to sense what strategies will suit you and your lifestyle resulting in successfully reaching your goals.
After working with Sarah, I can now recognize what I need to do in the moment, where in the past I used to feel stuck. The tools Sarah has given me have not only helped me reach my business goals, they have aided me in life and I have them to refer to from now on.”
After 3 months of working together, Jean:
Signed two licensing deals & had multiple pop-up events.
Created a new art collection in addition to starting a part-time job in a gallery
Feels confident with her ability to create a schedule that allows for the right mix of structure & flexibility so she can work with energy & avoid burnout as a creative entrepreneur.
What you Need to Know before Joining
Do I need to have an ADHD diagnosis to participate?
This group is geared towards neurodivergent women business owners, but you do not need a diagnosis to benefit. If you struggle with executive functioning (time management, prioritizing, planning, starting tasks), this is designed for you.
Is this business coaching?
No, this is not business coaching. I am not a business coach. We will not be focusing on “business systems” like sales, marketing, or branding. We will be focusing on executive function systems like time management, prioritizing, and planning that help you follow through on your business strategy. If you are looking for true business coaching - this is not the right fit.
When will we meet?
Tuesdays - the time will be decided as a group (between 11am EST-3pm EST)
How big will the group be?
6 people max! I love small groups because it means everyone gets to know each other, there’s lots of time for conversation & connection, and you get lots of individualized support.
What if I can’t attend the live calls?
If you are only going to miss 1 or 2, no worries! They will be recorded & uploaded to a private podcast feed or google drive folder. If you anticipate missing more than a few, this group isn’t the right fit for you. The magic is in the live calls.
What if I’m busy or I’m worried this isn’t the right time to commit to a group?
There is never going to be the “perfect” time to do something or a “normal week.” By committing to this group & learning how to work with your brain - you create more free time and energy. If you aren’t sure, apply & let’s talk about it together.
Is there a self-paced course or library of resources?
Nope! I know you’re busy - you will get everything you need in the live calls & in the Slack channel. If you’re someone who loves self-paced learning or homework assignments - I’ll happily share more resources with you.
What is the investment?
$2100 (or 3 monthly payments of $700)
How do I know if this is the right fit for me?
Apply & let’s schedule a free 30 chat to make sure it’s a good fit! Everyone who joins the group will go through an application & discovery call process to make sure it’s a good fit!
I have another question that wasn’t listed here…
Email me at sarah@executivefunctioningfirst.com and let’s chat!
Are You Ready to Stop Spinning Your Wheels and Start Moving Forward?
