Introducing “Your Mind Is an Orchestra” — A Free Executive Function Course for Neurodivergent Adults

If you’ve ever wondered why your brain works the way it does, struggled with motivation, felt overwhelmed by emotions, or battled through days where nothing seems to “click,” I have something special to share with you.

After months of development, writing, recording, refining, and metaphor-building, I’m excited to announce that Your Mind Is an Orchestra — a full, neurodivergent-affirming executive function course — is now available completely free on my website.

This course was designed to help you finally understand your brain without shame, without pressure, and without the exhausting feeling of trying to fit yourself into systems that were never built for you. If you’re living with ADHD, autism, anxiety, trauma, or chronic executive dysfunction, this course is for you.
And best of all?


There’s no cost, no signup paywall, and no “productivity perfectionism” baked into the lessons. Just clarity, compassion, and tools that actually match how your brain works.

Why I Made This Executive Function Course Free

Executive function challenges don’t wait for the “right moment.” They show up in the middle of workdays, parenting, relationships, burnout, and survival. I believe that neurodivergent adults deserve accessible, high-quality, research-backed support — without another financial barrier standing in the way.

This course is my way of saying:
You’re not broken. Your brain isn’t failing you. You simply haven’t been given the right language to understand how your internal systems work.

By making this program free, my goal is to:

  • Remove the shame around executive dysfunction
  • Give neurodivergent adults tools they can use immediately
  • Provide accessible education rooted in neuroscience
  • Share a metaphor that makes complex concepts feel intuitive and human
  • Reduce the loneliness and confusion that so often come with ADHD and autism

Everyone deserves to understand their own brain.
Everyone deserves tools that don’t require masking or forcing themselves into burnout.
And everyone deserves to learn in a way that feels supportive, validating, and emotionally safe.

What This Executive Function Course Is About

Your Mind Is an Orchestra teaches executive function through a metaphor that finally makes sense:
Your brain is an orchestra, and your executive function system is the conductor.

Each section explores a different “section” of this internal orchestra:

  • 🎻 Strings — Emotion & Expression
  • 🥁 Percussion — Motivation, Movement & Momentum
  • 🎷 Woodwinds — Attention, Working Memory & Flow
  • 🎺 Brass — Logic, Planning & Structure
  • 🎶 Integration & Harmony — Bringing It All Together

Through storytelling, neuroscience, and practical tools, the course helps you understand:

  • Why emotions sometimes overpower logic
  • Why motivation comes in irregular bursts
  • Why attention is inconsistent, especially in sensory-heavy spaces
  • Why memory can vanish mid-thought
  • Why planning and prioritization feel impossible during overwhelm
  • Why rest, regulation, and self-compassion are non-negotiable for executive function

Instead of forcing you to “try harder,” this course helps you work with your brain, not against it.

Who This Course Is For

This course comes from years of studying executive function theory while living inside a neurodivergent brain myself — navigating ADHD, autism, emotional intensity, and the everyday friction of modern expectations.

This course was built for anyone who has ever said:

  • “Why can I focus on some things but not others?”
  • “Why do small tasks feel huge?”
  • “Why do emotions hit me so intensely?”
  • “Why can’t I just get started?”
  • “Why do I shut down when I feel overwhelmed?”
  • “Why do I know what I need to do but can’t make myself do it?”

It’s especially for:

  • Adults with ADHD
  • Autistic or AuDHD adults
  • People with trauma histories
  • Anyone experiencing chronic overwhelm
  • Coaches, educators, or therapists who support neurodivergent clients
  • People seeking clarity, self-understanding, and kinder strategies

If you’ve been craving language that makes sense of your internal world, this course gives you that — and more.

What Makes This Executive Function Course Different

There are plenty of executive function resources out there — but most of them are built around traditional productivity models, rigid routines, or expectations that simply don’t match neurodivergent brains. They assume consistency, linear motivation, low sensitivity, and unlimited willpower.
But that’s not how many of us operate.

Here’s what makes Your Mind Is an Orchestra different:

🎵 1. It’s Neurodiversity-Affirming

This course doesn’t ask you to mask, force, or “fix” anything. It honors the rhythms of ADHD, autism, and highly sensitive nervous systems — and shows you how to work with your wiring.

🎵 2. It Combines Metaphor + Neuroscience

You’ll learn real brain science, explained through the intuitive metaphor of an orchestra. The result is learning that feels simple, visual, emotional, and memorable.

🎵 3. It Focuses on Access, Not Perfection

Executive function isn’t about discipline — it’s about access. This course teaches you how regulation, safety, and energy determine your ability to focus, plan, and follow through.

🎵 4. No Shame, No Pressure, No Toxic Productivity

You won’t be told to “just try harder.” Instead, you’ll learn how your brain actually works — and why you deserve compassion when things feel difficult.

🎵 5. It Was Created by and for Neurodivergent Adults

This course comes from lived experience, research, and deep reflection — not from the outside looking in. It was built with the needs of sensitive, overwhelmed, creative, intense, thoughtful minds in mind.

What You’ll Learn in This Free Executive Function Course

Each section is designed to help you understand a different part of your internal orchestra — and how these systems work together to support (or derail) your daily functioning.

By the end, you’ll learn:

🎻 How your emotional system works

  • Why emotions intensify

  • How to regulate without suppressing your feelings
  • How to understand emotional sensitivity as a superpower

🥁 How motivation actually works in neurodivergent brains

  • Why task initiation is so hard
  • How dopamine affects momentum

  • How to build sustainable rhythm instead of forced productivity

🎷 How attention and working memory shape your day

  • What helps anchor your attention
  • How to support cognitive flow

🎺 How planning, logic, and structure come online

  • Why prioritization feels overwhelming
  • How cognitive flexibility shifts under stress
  • How to create structure that doesn’t suffocate you
  • Tools for decision-making during overwhelm

🔋 Why regulation is the foundation of everything

  • How interoception, sensory input, and energy levels determine access
  • Simple body-based resets
  • What happens when the nervous system feels unsafe
  • How regulation restores the conductor’s ability to lead

🎶 How to create harmony across all systems

  • How to read your internal cues
  • How to adapt your strategies to your current energy
  • How to support your conductor with compassion
  • How to rebuild balance when things fall apart

This isn’t just an educational course — it’s a framework for understanding yourself with greater clarity and softness.
