You know you need support, but figuring out what kind of support can be confusing.
An ADHD coach, ADHD Virtual Assistant, or ADHD-focused Business Support worker can all help, but they do very different jobs.
ADHD Coach
An ADHD coach generally helps you understand how ADHD affects your goals, routines and behaviour.
They may support you with:
- Goal setting
- Self-awareness
- Time management strategies
- Identifying barriers
- Building routines
- Accountability
Coaching is usually focused on helping you develop your own strategies and solutions through discussion, reflection and action planning.
ADHD Virtual Assistant
An ADHD Virtual Assistant is more hands-on.
Instead of only discussing what needs to happen, they can help you actually get the work done.
Support might include:
- Inbox and calendar management
- Admin and organisation
- Task management
- Reminders and accountability
- Breaking projects into manageable steps
- Body doubling
- Helping you stay on track
This can be particularly useful when you know what you need to do but struggle with task initiation, prioritisation or follow-through.
ADHD-Focused Business Support
An ADHD-focused Business Support worker takes that practical support a step further.
Alongside day-to-day administration, they can help manage the moving parts of your business, identify priorities, keep projects progressing and reduce the amount you need to hold in your head.
The relationship is often more collaborative and proactive than traditional VA support.
For entrepreneurs with ADHD, that can mean having someone alongside you who understands how easily priorities can shift, tasks can become overwhelming and important work can disappear beneath the urgent stuff.
Which Support Do You Need?
If you want help understanding your ADHD patterns and developing strategies, coaching may be the right fit.
If you mainly need someone to complete delegated administrative tasks, an ADHD VA may be enough.
But if you need practical, ongoing help with prioritising, organising, implementing and following through, ADHD-focused business support may be a better fit.
That’s the kind of support I provide — helping ADHD entrepreneurs turn plans into action and keep the business moving without having to manage everything alone.
