About Me

Untitled design-2

I'm Lola

I'm a coach, writer and guide for neurodivergent women. Particularly those who've come to an ADHD, AuDHD or autism diagnosis later in life and are still working out what that means for how they live.

I know this experience through both coaching late-diagnosed neurodivergent women and my personal experience. I'm a late-diagnosed AuDHD woman, raising an autistic teenager and caring for an undiagnosed elderly parent.

I've spent a lot of my life adapting, holding things together and quietly sensing that something wasn't quite right. The diagnosis explained a lot and asked me to rebuild on more honest foundations. It was like I'd always been missing vital information about how I function - and for the first time, putting my life together in a way that actually fits was possible.

What I see

I see a lot of women who are capable, perceptive and exhausted. Women who have spent years masking their ADHD or autistic traits, over-functioning and meeting expectations that were never designed with them in mind.

From the outside, things can look fine. But internally there's often a disconnection - from their own rhythm, needs and sense of who they truly are behind the mask.

Not because something is wrong with them. But because they've been trying to live according to neurotypical functioning that doesn't match how they're wired.

Many of the women I work with are navigating neurodivergent burnout after years of masking and over-functioning, often without realising how much it has cost them.

Boss Ass Living is about reclaiming your authority from everything that’s tried to define you and coming home to the truest, most alive version of yourself.

What we do together

My work goes beyond managing your neurodivergence or becoming a more functional version of yourself.

It's about:

  • Understanding how you actually work
  • Unlearning what was never yours
  • Centering yourself in your world
  • Building a life that fits your brain, body, nervous system and what is genuinely true for you

 

This is especially important for women navigating life after a late ADHD, AuDHD or autism diagnosis, where the old ways of functioning are no longer sustainable.

For some women this also means breaking inherited patterns and reclaiming authorship over how they live and lead. Not perfectly. But honestly.

My approach is inclusive, grounded, embodied and real. Nothing needs to be performed here.
