About Sarah

Sarah Hardy, UK ADHD Business Coach

I’m Sarah

​

An ADHD and business coach, consultant, and late-diagnosed neurodivergent woman. I work with individuals and organisations who are ready to stop battling their brains and start building support that actually works.

​

I specialise in supporting:

​

  • Neurodivergent adults figuring out how to work with their brain

  • Self-employed creatives and service providers who feel out of control behind the scenes

  • Employers and managers who want to create inclusive support — not just tick-box adjustments

 

I don’t believe in hustle, one-size-fits-all solutions, or fixing people who aren’t broken.


I believe in clarity, gentle structure, and sustainable support. Coaching with me is practical, affirming, and grounded in what works for you.

A Bit About My Background

I bring over 20 years of experience in coaching, business operations, and behind-the-scenes support.

 

I’ve worked with founders, freelancers, overwhelmed parents, and ambitious professionals trying to stay afloat, often while masking.

​

I hold a first-class BSc in Psychology, Psychotherapy, and Counselling, and I’m currently completing my Master’s in Positive Psychology and Coaching.

 

I’m EMCC-accredited, ADHD Works certified, and trained in trauma-aware, neuroaffirmative practice.

​

My approach is shaped by:

  • Polyvagal Theory

  • Strengths-Based Coaching

  • Positive Psychology tools like VIA Strengths and Positive Intelligence saboteurs

  • Real-world experience supporting neurodivergent business owners and professionals

Why I’m Passionate About Life Coaching

I was diagnosed with ADHD at 35 — after years of pushing through, people-pleasing, and wondering why I couldn’t keep up without burning out.

​

That diagnosis didn’t just explain a lot, it reshaped everything. It led me to build a coaching and business support practice that blends lived experience, evidence-based psychology, and genuinely useful strategies for real life.

​

Whether I’m helping someone plan their week, unpick a career crossroads, or stop saying yes to everything out of guilt, the goal is always the same: to feel more like yourself again, and to move forward in a way that feels doable.

Who I Work With

I work with people who are brilliant, thoughtful, and completely burnt out by systems that weren’t designed for them.

​

Many of my clients are:

  • Neurodivergent adults navigating life after a late ADHD or Autism discovery

  • Coaches, creatives, and self-employed professionals trying to stay organised without losing themselves

  • Parents who’ve been holding everything together and are ready for support that actually supports them

  • Business owners who need someone in their corner

​

You don’t have to be diagnosed.
You don’t have to explain how your brain works.
You just have to be ready to do things differently with someone who gets it.
