Danielle Ralston
Founder, CEO aka THE ORIGINAL ADHD COACH
AuDHD
I’ve been coaching ADHD and Autistic brains for 25+ years—long before it was a TikTok trend or a coaching buzzword. I’ve worked with over 1,500 brilliantly divergent humans between the ages of 10 and 70. Why? Because I am one of them.
I’m AuDHD myself, and I refused to let my neurodivergence become a barrier to the big, bold life I knew I was meant for. So I got curious. Then I got certified. Then I got really good at helping other people do the same. I dove deep into the science, the structure, the strategies—and I never stopped learning.
I keep training and getting certified in cutting-edge protocols and tools, because I believe neurodivergent brains deserve support that actually works with how we’re wired—not against it. Coaching isn’t just what I do. It’s the way I’ve chosen to flip the script on what it means to be “too much,” “too scattered,” or “too sensitive.”
I’m here to remind you: your brain isn’t broken. It’s brilliant. And I’ve spent the last two decades helping people like you (and me) prove it.
