ADHD In Women

With Sandhya Coyle

Do you ever feel like your brain is running on overdrive—like one more task, sound, or demand might push you over the edge? If so, you’re not alone. For women with ADHD, overwhelm isn’t just an occasional frustration—it’s a daily struggle. The endless to-do lists, the constant juggling of responsibilities, the mental exhaustion… it can feel like too much. But what if you could break free from the cycle? In this course, we’ll dive deep into what ADHD in women looks like. You’ll discover how it often presents differently than in men—why it’s frequently overlooked or misdiagnosed, and how this impacts everything from emotions to organization to self-worth. We’ll explore the science behind ADHD and overwhelm, why it happens, and—most importantly—how to take back control. Through this journey, you’ll learn: How ADHD manifests in women and why it’s often misunderstood Practical, ADHD-friendly strategies to manage mental overload, emotional flooding, and sensory overwhelm Tools to reset your nervous system and regain focus when you’re overstimulated How to stop seeing ADHD as a personal flaw and start working with your brain instead of against it Imagine feeling calmer, more in control, and less weighed down by stress. Picture yourself knowing exactly what to do when overwhelm strikes—having tools that work. Through reflection and a powerful Overwhelm meditation, you’ll learn how to shift from fight-or-flight mode into a state of balance and focus. It’s time to stop struggling alone and start understanding your ADHD in a way that empowers you. Join this course and begin your journey toward clarity, ease, and self-compassion today.

Really interesting, particularly about how meditation helps. I had a very solid practice for a number of years and it was when this was disrupted that my ADHD became unavoidable. Thank you. I look forward to your other sessions ❤️

Sandhya is a pure joy to listen to. Her voice and her words of wisdom have been a huge help to me, as I continue to navigate my way through my late-diagnosed ADHD (plus autism) journey. She generously shares experiences from her own life that help me feel validated, less alone, and more accepting of my neurodivergent brain. I appreciate the tools she has given me so far and look forward to diving into more of her content on this wonderful app. Thank you very much, Sandhya! 🙏🏼❤️

This course brought tears to my eyes, but also brought so much joy! She is in a remarkable person who has brought so much wisdom, and I have also learned some new tools that have inspired me to keep going whenever feeling overwhelmed! Just knowing that I’m not alone is key and just having people to understand and have that acceptance is another. I learned that I just need to love myself no matter what! this is such a wonderful course. I recommend it to any person with ADHD.
