Work that fits the way you think.
One-to-one professional mentorship for neurodivergent people, by neurodivergent people. Two 45-minute video calls a month, and unlimited texting in between.
Who this is for
You already know how to cope. Now, thrive.
ADHD, autism, dyslexia, or no label at all. The label doesn't matter. It's part of you, not all of you.
You worked out the basics long ago, and you're good at your job. What's left is getting to the next level. What gets in the way:
- Misunderstandings with coworkers.
- The review that says "communication" and nothing else.
- Feeling left out, let down, misunderstood.
We're neurodivergent too. We built our careers in companies that were not designed for brains like ours. We've also been the ones hiring, managing, reviewing and promoting.
This is professional mentorship from people who already understand how you think. Not a toolkit of coping techniques.
Mentors, not therapistsNo diagnosis needed
How it works
- 1A first conversation. Both sides decide.
- 2You get one of us as your mentor, whichever of us is the better fit. We work as a team behind the scenes.
- 3Two 45-minute video calls a month, and unlimited texting in between.
- 4It lasts as long as it's working.
What we work on
Your actual week, not a framework.
- Managing up: what your manager needs from you, and how to get what you need from them.
- Telling people, or not. When it helps, when it doesn't, and how to ask for what you need either way.
- Interviews and promotion cases, so the process measures your work and not your small talk.
- Energy and workload: a week you can keep up, not one you survive.
- The next move: the roles, teams and bosses where the way you think is the advantage.
Bring a real problem: the email you can't write, the meeting that went sideways, the job offer you can't decide on. We'll work on it the same day. Zero judgment. Empathy with teeth.
