If you've been wondering whether ADHD explains struggles like overwhelm, missed deadlines, dropped balls, and shame spirals, but feel too anxious or uncertain to pursue it with a doctor, this program is for you.
Join us for two powerful sessions where you'll explore the ADHD question without pressure, judgment, or having to prove anything to anyone.
If it's ADHD, you aren't lazy. You aren't incapable. You aren't "just not trying hard enough."
But you ARE exhausted from:
✓ Working harder than everyone else just to keep up
✓ Forgetting things you desperately wanted to remember
✓ Starting 10 projects and finishing none
✓ Hiding the chaos that's drowning you
✓ Feeling emotions so intensely they knock you sideways
✓ Wondering "Why is this so hard for me?"
✓ Feeling inadequate and ashamed, even after real wins
What if there was a reason?
What if understanding that reason changed everything?
THE TWO WEEKS: FROM CONFUSION TO CLARITY
Week 1: "Understanding Your Patterns"
In this session, you'll:
✅ Explore what ADHD actually looks like in adults (not the stereotypes)
✅ Hear real stories that help you see yourself reflected, maybe for the first time
✅ Identify which patterns match your lived experience
✅ Discover the hidden strengths in traits you've always seen as weaknesses
✅ Begin connecting the dots in your life without pressure to leap to conclusions
Week 2: "Creating Your Action Plan"
In this session, you'll:
✅ Make space for whatever emotions come up (relief, grief, frustration, or others)
✅ Learn to partner with your brain instead of fighting it
✅ Understand your options: evaluation, coaching, lifestyle changes, or something else
✅ Build a clear action plan tailored to what YOU need
✅ Leave with a professional ADHD Discovery Packet ready to use with any provider
🤝 A Safe, Judgment-Free Space
This group is intentionally small (10 people max) so everyone feels seen and heard, not lost in the crowd.
You'll meet people at every stage of their ADHD journey, from "I think maybe..." to "I'm pretty sure but I need support." All are welcome. No need to wonder whether you're "ADHD enough" to be here.
🚀 What You'll Get
✅ Clarity about whether ADHD might explain your struggles, without judgment or pressure to pursue diagnosis
✅ Relief from the confusion of not knowing what's really going on, whether it's ADHD or something else
✅ Language to finally name and understand patterns you've noticed in your life
✅ A safe, judgment-free space to explore without pressure or diagnosis
✅ A small, supportive community of people exploring the same questions (10 people max) so you feel seen, not lost in the crowd
✅ Two live 90-minute group sessions (Tuesdays, 8 PM EST/7 PM CST/6 PM MST/5 PM PST) plus recordings available within 24 hours
✅ Reflection and resource guides designed to help you explore and understand your patterns (completion optional, not required)
✅ Ongoing access to all program materials and the private community for support beyond the program
✅ A personalized ADHD Diagnosis Prep Packet that's organized, evidence-based, and ready to bring to your doctor if you decide to pursue a diagnosis or professional evaluation
You Don't Need...
❌ A diagnosis to join
❌ To be "sure" it's ADHD
❌ To have anything figured out
You Just Need...
✅ Willingness to explore with curiosity
✅ Openness to seeing yourself differently
✅ 90 minutes on two Tuesday evenings (with a brain/bio break halfway through)
Can't make the full 90 minutes? The recording will be available within 24 hours, and you can catch what you missed.
🫴 Why This Beta Is Free
I'm bringing this work into a group format for the first time, and I want to make sure it's as powerful as possible.

What Changes When You Work WITH Your Brain
✅ Overwhelm becomes clarity - you know what matters and why
✅ Shame becomes confidence - you embrace your authentic self
✅ Struggle becomes flow - life feels sustainable, not exhausting
✅ Hiding becomes showing up - you stop masking who you really are
ADHD Pathfinders Principles
🔥 Struggle to Strength: Your ADHD traits aren't character flaws—they're biology. When you fully understand them, they stop limiting you and start empowering you.
🪞 Identity Before Behavior: You can't build lasting change while beating yourself up. We shift how you see yourself first, so transformation becomes possible.
🤝 With Your Brain, Not Against It: Release the pressure to conform. Partner with your brain to create a life that fits you both!
🚨 Find your path before the crash: Don’t wait for a crisis to change course. Create change now, before you lose what matters most.
You're in Good Company
A Guide Who's Actually Been There
I'm Mark Barstow, a Certified Master Life Coach and Master NLP Practitioner with 30+ years guiding people through complex challenges, building communities, and decades of lived ADHD experience.
I lived 50+ years with undiagnosed ADHD. I know what it feels like to:
😞 Disappoint people you’ve made commitments to (including yourself)
🔬 Be put on Performance Improvement Plans despite working your ass off and doing your best
💔 Damage your personal and professional relationships without even realizing it
🫥 Bury parts of yourself just to belong
😢 Suffer major losses (job, family, identity, home) because you didn't know how to work with your brain
I also know what it feels like on the other side of transformation:
🦋 Your "weakness" becomes your strength
☯️ You learn to partner with your brain instead of fighting it
🌿 You stop conforming and finally flourish as yourself
🔥 You become the person who finally understands and champions your own needs
🚀 You guide others around the pitfalls you once faced
My goal: Help you skip the decades of pain and loss I suffered and leap straight into transformation.
