Hi, I’m Kyle

I’m autistic, I have ADHD, and I know this struggle from the inside.

I’m not someone who figured everything out years ago and now has the perfect system to hand down to you.

I’m living this work myself.

For years, I’ve had things I deeply wanted to create and change in my life, while repeatedly finding myself caught in overwhelm, avoidance, distraction, escape and shame.

I could understand what needed to happen.

I could make plans.

I could become intensely interested in something.

And yet when it came time to consistently take action, something would often get in the way.

If that sounds familiar, you’re probably in the right place.

I started asking a different question

For a long time, the question was:

“What is wrong with me?”

Why could I know exactly what needed to be done and still not do it?

Why could I suddenly find enormous motivation to clean, research something else or disappear into distraction when the thing I actually cared about was sitting right in front of me?

Why did forcing myself harder so often lead to more overwhelm, avoidance and shame?

Being diagnosed with autism and ADHD gave me a new framework for understanding many of the struggles I had spent years judging myself for.

But understanding the diagnosis wasn’t enough.

I still had to learn:

How do I actually live with this brain?

How do I take action when I’m overwhelmed?

How do I work with executive dysfunction instead of endlessly blaming myself for it?

How do I stay present when fear makes me want to escape?

How do I rebuild trust in myself after years of broken promises?

And how do I create a meaningful life without turning everything into another exhausting battle with myself?

Those are the questions behind this work.

What I’m exploring

My approach brings together the things I’m studying, practising and testing in my own life:

nervous-system awareness, yoga, meditation, breathwork, self-inquiry, executive-function strategies, somatic practices and grounded spiritual practice.

I’m particularly interested in what happens in the loop between:

fear → overwhelm → avoidance → escape → shame → collapse

…and how we learn to interrupt that loop without replacing it with more self-criticism.

Sometimes that means regulating the body.

Sometimes it means changing the environment.

Sometimes it means making the task ridiculously small.

Sometimes it means allowing fear to be there and acting anyway.

And sometimes it means admitting that what we’ve been doing simply isn’t working and trying something different.

I’m not speaking from the finish line

This is important.

I’m not presenting myself as someone who has solved ADHD, autism, executive dysfunction, addiction, burnout or the human condition.

I’m a practitioner.

I research. I practise. I experiment. I observe what happens. I keep what helps. I question what doesn’t. And I share what I’m learning honestly.

That means you’ll hear about the successes.

You’ll also hear about the days when I avoid the thing, get overwhelmed, fall back into an old pattern or realise that an idea that sounded brilliant didn’t actually work for me.

I think there is value in that honesty.

Because sometimes what we need is not another person standing at the top of the mountain shouting instructions.

Sometimes we need someone walking the terrain too, paying attention, testing the paths and saying:

“Here’s what I’m learning. Maybe this can help you too.”
