PODCAST : Hosted By Helena. EMCC Spotlight on Neurodiversity
Permission to Proceed - ADHD Coaching with David Giwerc
“Welcome to the EMCC UK Podcast, and welcome to this spotlight on Neurodiversity. Permission to proceed – ADHD Coaching with David Giwerc.
Our hosts, Helena Territt and Phillippa Eddie were lucky enough to meet with a true legend, David Giwerc, who founded the ADD Coach Academy back in 1999. To put that into context, ADHD was only widely recognised as a valid condition in the UK in 2000 and adult ADHD still faces scepticism.
David is a Master Certified ADHD Coach (MCAC) with the Professional Association for ADHD Coaches (PAAC) and a Master Certified Coach (MCC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF). He is the Founder and President of the ADD Coach Academy (ADDCA), the first and largest comprehensive ADHD coach training program fully accredited by the ICF and PAAC. In his book, Permission to Proceed: The Keys to Creating a Life of Passion, Purpose, and Possibility for Adults with ADHD, David shares his unique and effective coaching models for gaining control of one’s ADHD.
During the conversation, David shares with Helena and Phillippa the foundational pillars of ADHD Coaching and how it enhances emotional, social intelligence, and executive functioning. He also delves into some of ADDCA's coaching models, rooted in neuroscience, and their efficacy in educating clients about their unique ADHD profiles.
This is relevant to all coaches with an interest in neurodiversity and not just ADHD specialists.”
