If this sounds like you…
You’re in the right place.
- You’ve been coping so well, for so long, you forgot the difference between coping and actually living.
- Your diagnosis explained everything. And now you’re grieving years you can’t get back.
- You’re exhausted from making yourself small enough to fit into spaces that were never designed for you.
- You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just running on a setup that was never built for you.
You don’t have to work in tech. Recently diagnosed, self-diagnosed, or just done pretending. This space is for you.
How coaching works
Three clear steps. No surprises, no homework, no pop quiz.
- First of three
Choose your format
Video, voice-only, voice notes, or text-only. Whatever your nervous system says yes to today.
- Then
Map your energy
We map the sensory, social, and structural drains, the stuff most people miss, so we know what's actually costing you.
- From there
Environment Design
Tools, environment design, and unmasking at your pace. No homework you'll forget. No strategies that don't fit how you think.
It’s not just about work. It’s your whole life.
What we get to work on together.
Work
A career that fits you
We look at what's quietly draining you at work and design around it, so the job stops costing you the whole evening.
Mind
Self-trust you can feel
Less second-guessing every decision. More trusting your own patterns instead of apologising for them.
Body
Energy that stretches further
We map the sensory, social, and structural drains, then build your week around how your battery actually works.
Meaning
A life that's yours
Relationships, hobbies, identity, built around who you actually are, not the mask.
I’m Dennis. I get it, because I live it.
I’m a late-diagnosed autistic ADHDer who had to navigate rediscovering myself in the middle of burnout, and got to the other side while still holding down a career.
I’m an ICF-credentialed coach (Associate Certified Coach, ACC) with a specialised neurodivergent coaching certification. I don’t try to change how your brain works. I help you design a life that works with it.
What clients say
From people who sat where you are.
Mornings used to feel like the worst part of my day. What surprised me was that we didn't reach for a stricter routine, we got curious about what was actually making mine miserable. Being met that way, without any judgement, made the mornings feel like something I could work with instead of one more thing I was failing at.
I used to spiral before I even started anything, the overthinking alone could wreck my confidence for the day. What made these sessions different was how playful they were, there was room to actually get curious about my own brain instead of judging it. For once, looking at how I work didn't feel like something to be ashamed of.
I came in overwhelmed and honestly kind of shut down. What I appreciated was that nobody promised to fix the burnout, we just paid attention to what was actually in my control, even the small stuff. Getting to bring all of that to someone who genuinely gets it, without having to explain or perform, is what made the sessions feel safe.
I'd tried every productivity hack out there and ended up hating planning altogether. What was different here was that we didn't reach for someone else's system, we looked for a way of planning that actually fit me, simple enough that it stopped feeling like a fight. It felt like the first approach that respected how my brain already works instead of arguing with it.

The Co-op Campaign
R 6 750
6 × 60 minutes
Six sessions to go deeper than one conversation can. This is the long game: room to try things between sessions, notice what actually shifts, and adjust as we go. We work side by side over weeks, building setups around how your brain works, at a pace that holds. Not a quick fix, a partnership you can lean on while real change takes shape.
See the CampaignIf cost is the thing standing in the way, say so on the call.
