Agile Systems for
Neurodivergent
Professionals
Custom-built, adaptive frameworks for real-world complexity and sustainable execution.
Hello, I’m Amy
I am an Agile coach and teacher with 20 years of experience in the field. My approach is direct, practical, and action-oriented.
I work exclusively with individuals and small groups; primarily independent entrepreneurs, freelancers, and people affected by ADHD.
My Journey
For years, I thought I was just "undisciplined."
I was brilliant at strategy, problem-solving, and coming up with ideas—but following through on them was like wading through quicksand. I'd have months of outstanding performance followed by weeks of burnout and paralysis.
I read dozens of books on productivity, and all of them worked ...temporarily.
The turning point came while I was working as a software project manager: I discovered Agile. As it turns out, living with ADHD and developing software have a lot in common. Agile provided enough structure to keep me on track without locking me into a rigid playbook, or at a pace that I couldn't sustain. And my "weaknesses"—impulsivity, distractibility, intensity—were actually the flip side of my greatest strengths: innovation, hyperfocus, and passion.
I spent the next decade studying neuroscience, testing systems, and developing a sustainable methodology that complements how my mind actually works. Now, I use that lived experience and professional training to help others do the same.
I'm not just a coach who’s taken a few courses. I've lived the struggle, and developed my expertise through years of study and practice.

The Agile Difference
Agile is methodology for getting things done under conditions of constant change. It derives its name from its core strength: adaptability. Specifically, it allows the business or person using the framework to make progress despite uncertainty, interruptions, and changing circumstance.
Agile is simple: an ordinary person can learn the basics in about ten minutes. Agile is also deep: there are literally thousands of methods, tips, and tools that have been created or discovered by various people for various purposes.
I have found Agile to be a lot like meditation: Meditation is simple, effective, and about practice. You can do it on your own, but it helps to have a coach. I’ve been coaching and teaching Agile since 2005. I am very good at it.
My Coaching Philosophy
Traditional productivity advice often fails ADHD brains because it assumes a linear, consistent energy flow. My approach is different. It's built on four core pillars:
Strengths-Based
We don't 'fix' you because you aren't broken. We identify your unique cognitive strengths and build systems that leverage them.
Holistic Approach
Your work life doesn't exist in a vacuum. We look at sleep, energy, environment, and emotional regulation as key business metrics.
Action-Oriented
Insight is valuable, but action changes lives. Every session ends with concrete, manageable steps designed for your brain..
Partnership, Not Prescription
I'm the expert on the process; you're the expert on you. We co-create solutions rather than me handing you a generic checklist.
Is This You?
I work best with ambitious, creative individuals who know they have potential but feel blocked by their own operating system.
You have 100 ideas before breakfast but struggle to finish one.
You oscillate between 'superhuman productivity' and 'couch paralysis'.
You feel like an impostor because simple tasks feel impossibly hard.
You're ready to stop fighting your brain and start working with it.
What You Can Expect
Working together is a judgment-free zone. There is no shame here—only strategy.
We'll bypass the generic advice and dig into the specific mechanics of your attention, energy, and motivation. You'll leave with a custom "User Manual" for your brain and a business that thrives because of your unique mind, not in spite of it.
