Welcome to the ADHD SpeakEasy!

We are so glad you found us


Executive skills coaching for ADHD minds — with a specialty in real estate.


Diagnosed or highly suspecting.


Real estate looks like a sales job.


Turns out, it’s also an executive-function marathon.


We help ADHD minds understand how they work, figure out what’s getting in the way, and develop ways of working that work with their brain — in business and in life.

The people behind the SpeakEasy

ADHD SpeakEasy is the brainchild of JP Gunn and Laura Bloom.


We’ve spent years working with neurodivergent people, and we’ve noticed something again and again:


Knowing what you need to do and being able to actually do it are two very different things.


That gap can be especially frustrating when your work demands constant planning, prioritizing, initiating, organizing, remembering, switching gears, managing emotions and following through.


Real estate happens to require a lot of all of that.


And nobody really teaches you how to manage that part of the job.


That’s where we come in.

Real estate is an executive-function job disguised as a sales job.

You’re selling houses, sure.


But you’re also:


Managing a ridiculous number of moving parts

Following up with people who may or may not call you back

Juggling multiple clients and transactions

Remembering promises, details and deadlines

Planning your day around a schedule that can change five times before lunch

Doing paperwork you don’t particularly want to do

Starting things that don’t have immediate consequences

Switching between clients, calls, showings and admin

Dealing with rejection, uncertainty and stress


And somehow, you’re also supposed to have a life.


If your brain struggles with executive functioning, that’s a lot.


We see the work behind the work.

So what exactly do we do?

We don’t try to fix your ADHD.


Your brain isn’t broken.


We help you understand how your executive skills work — and where they’re creating friction in your life and business.


We use the executive-skills framework associated with Peg Dawson and Richard Guare as a foundation for understanding your individual profile.


From there, we identify your strengths, explore the areas that are giving you the most trouble, and experiment with practical approaches.


Not:


“Here’s the perfect ADHD system.”


Instead:


Let’s find ways of working that work with your brain.

You’re not a generic ADHD profile.

The goal isn’t to improve all 12 executive skills.


We start by looking at your individual profile.


What are you already good at?


Where are you getting stuck?


How do those strengths and challenges interact?


We focus on your three strongest and three most challenging executive skills.


Your strengths aren’t just nice things to know about yourself.


We use them.


We look for ways your stronger skills can help support the areas that create more friction.


Then we experiment.


Notice.


Adjust.


Try again.


No fixing. No failing. Just learning what works.

It’s not just about your business.

Executive-function challenges don’t clock out at 5.


They show up at home, in relationships, in your routines, and in all the little things that somehow become surprisingly difficult.


So yes, we’ll talk about real estate.


But we’re interested in the whole person doing the real estate.

Your brain has an operating style.

We look at 12 executive skills:


Response Inhibition

Working Memory

Emotional Control

Task Initiation

Sustained Attention

Planning & Prioritizing

Organization

Time Management

Flexibility

Metacognition

Goal-Directed Persistence

Stress Tolerance


You don’t need to be great at all twelve.


Nobody is.


We want to understand your particular pattern — where your strengths live, where things get sticky, and how the pieces interact.

ADHD SpeakEasy is a neuro-affirming space offering practical, compassionate coaching & support for adults with ADHD (diagnosed or self-identified). We focus on understanding how your brain works and helping you build systems that actually fit your life.


 ADHD SpeakEasy is for adults who:

  • Have ADHD or strongly suspect they do
  • Feel overwhelmed, stuck, burnt out or frustrated by executive dysfunction
  • Are tired of shame-based advice and "just try harder" solutions
  • Want support that is practical, human, and judgment-free

You don’t need a formal diagnosis to participate. Curiosity is enough.


No. ADHD SpeakEasy does not provide therapy, medical advice, or diagnosis. What we offer is coaching-style support, education, and tools focused on daily life, habits, and self-understanding.


If you’re working with a therapist, doctor, or psychiatrist, ADHD SpeakEasy can complement that work.


We don’t try to "fix" you.

Our approach is:

  • Neuro-affirming (your brain isn’t broken)
  • Low-pressure and realistic
  • Focused on systems, not willpower
  • Built around curiosity, compassion, and experimentation

We meet you where you are—and build from there.


That’s extremely common—and not a failure on your part.


Many ADHD strategies fail because they weren’t designed for your brain. We focus on gentle experimentation and personalization rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
