Empowering Neurodivergent Journeys

Discover tailored coaching designed to support neurodivergent adults in navigating life’s complexities and achieving personal growth.

About Me

Hi, I’m Rhys — a recovered alcoholic, mildly autistic, former Anglican priest, and very much a work in progress.

I help neurodivergent adults optimise their money, health and general wellbeing

If that’s you, I want you to know something upfront:

You’re not broken.

You don’t need fixing.

You need space to be yourself. You need support that actually makes sense for how your brain works. And maybe, like I did, you just need someone who gets it.

I’ve been where you are

In 2013, I hit rock bottom. I was drinking to survive, burnt out, masking constantly, and completely lost.

I went into treatment at Livingstone House in Birmingham. That’s where my sobriety journey started — and honestly, it wasn’t easy. Recovery wasn’t a straight line. It was more like a wonky squiggle with a lot of side quests.

But over time, I built a life I could be proud of.

And no, it didn’t happen overnight. I made a lot of mistakes. I also learned a lot along the way — especially about being neurodivergent and in recovery.

Why I started this

Most recovery programs aren’t designed for people like us.

They expect you to show up, speak up, follow rules, and not ask too many questions.

But if you’ve got ADHD, autism, trauma, or all three (like me), that just doesn’t work.

I started this site to offer something different:

• Recovery that respects your neurodivergence

• Tools that actually help you get through the day

• Resources that feel doable — even when your executive function is in the bin

• Real talk, no judgement, and no pretending we’ve got it all figured out

I share what worked for me. What didn’t. And what I wish I’d known sooner.

I’m not a guru — I’m a guide

I’m not here to tell you how to live your life.

I’m here to walk alongside you, point out the potholes, and hand you a few maps I drew from my own journey.

Some of the things I offer:

• Simple digital tools and templates to make life easier

• A newsletter with honest insights about recovery, emotions, and work

• Digital courses and mini-books made for real humans, not robots

• Coaching that respects your pace, your brain, and your goals

And yes, I make jokes. Often at my own expense. It helps. Life is hard. Let’s not pretend otherwise.

You deserve a life you don’t have to escape from

This isn’t just about quitting a substance.

It’s about learning how to live again.

To show up in your relationships. To handle your money. To stop feeling ashamed every time you forget something or melt down in Tesco.

You deserve dignity.

And if you’ve been told otherwise, I’m here to tell you: they were wrong.

Let’s rebuild — one small win at a time

If any of this resonates, stick around.

Subscribe to the newsletter. Download something free. Join one of my courses or coaching sessions when you’re ready.

You don’t have to figure it all out at once.

Just take the next small step.

I’m glad you’re here.
