Business and Marketing Support for Coaches

The ADD Coach Academy (ADDCA) is very interested in helping you grow your coaching practice.

Our goal is to empower you on the basics so you can make educated decision when investing in your practice.  We will continue to provide sources for affordable, effective, marketing tools and educational classes that we hope can assist in building a profitable coaching business.    

Unfortunately there are many “marketing gurus” out there who prey on new coaches to invest hundreds and thousands of dollars with hopes of making millions overnight.  We ask you to be cautious.  

We will keep adding resources over time  that  we think will be helpful in building your coaching practice , so don't forget to visit again.

Positive Thoughts are a Foundation to Floursihing

Research conducted by Professor Barbara Fredrickson at The Positive Emotions and Psychophysiology Laboratory at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has indicated that positive emotions hold clear benefits for supporting the creation of a more flourishing life.One of the foundational pieces for creating a flourishing life is cultivating more positive thoughts and emotions, than negative ones, on daily basis. But how much more?

Professor Frederickson has conducted research focused on ratios of positive to negative thoughts and emotions. In 2005 Fredrickson and Losada published an article in American Psychologist to suggest that positivity ratios above about 3-to-1 and below about 11-to-1 are what humans need to flourish. Basically, it takes allot more work to overcome the negative thoughts whcih create stress on the health of our bodies and brains.

The greatest IGNORANCE people have is REJECTING something they know nothing about

The greatest IGNORANCE people have is  REJECTING something they know nothing or very little about  and then going out and saying things that justify that IGNORANCE. There are some people who by virtue of a credential or status, think they know what ADHD is and think they know what solutions need to be implemented for everyone to improve their ADHD. The scientific facts and  comprehensive health options that are part of a  successful system for managing ADHD have been researched, documented and disseminated to the public. They have been successfully used by countless numbers of people with ADHD to create fulfilling lives.

We know that proper diagnosis supported by the appropriate medications have been important components of successful treatment.  Wel-trained and experienced health care  professionals who work with people who have ADHD, know that an emphasis on medications is  NOT the ONE and ONLY SOLUTION. The “Pill” will not give you the skills to learn what needs to be integarted and implemnetd  to live a successful life with ADHD.

Dr. Hallowell’s Response to the NY Times Opinion Piece “Ritalin Gone Wrong” NY Times January 28,2012

Regarding the opinion piece "Ritalin Gone Wrong" written by Alan Sroufe, Ph.D., (NY Times, Jan. 29, 2012): As is usually the case when the use of stimulant medications like Ritalin makes it into mainstream media, the piece pushed emotional hot-buttons in a way that would scare the daylights out of uninformed readers and lead them to avoid ever using such medications or allowing their children to, thereby giving up on a class of medications with enormous potential benefits.

Let me offer a different point of view. I'm an M.D., a child and adult psychiatrist who's been treating children who have what we now call ADHD for over 30 years. I was on the Harvard Medical School faculty for 20 years, and I still see patients in my offices in Sudbury, MA, and New York City every day. I have both ADHD and dyslexia myself. I've co-written, with John Ratey, the best-selling books on the topic of ADHD. I know this condition, and its various treatments, inside and out.

Do You Know Your Value?

If you really put a small value upon yourself, rest assured that the world will not raise your price.  ~Author Unknown

No one is going to make you more valuable than you already are. How can they? No one knows your inner value, strengths and power better than you do. How can you expect others to tell you how valuable you are when they don’t live inside of you? They don’t think, act or live like you? Only you know you based on the choices you make every day.

Gain Momentum with your KNOWINGS

ADHD is a challenge of momentum. Don’t’ do the things that are hardest and most difficult first. Do those things that will get your engine revved up so you can build off the energy and forward movement you have already established. Don’t listen to the dominant beliefs that hold you back. Listen to the music that makes you sing, dance and come alive!
