ADHD A Guide for Muggles

Do you live, work, teach, or parent someone with ADHD — and wish you could truly understand how their mind works? Welcome to ADHD: A Guide for Muggles, a down-to-earth, science-meets-storytelling course created to help you see the world through the eyes of someone with ADHD. I’m Matthew Barnett, a Master Trainer of NLP and personal development coach — and I also have ADHD. In fact, I only discovered it later in life when my daughter was diagnosed, and we decided to go through the assessment process together. That shared journey completely changed how I understood myself, my childhood, and the struggles I’d carried for years. This course was born from that realisation — that the greatest challenge people with ADHD face isn’t the condition itself, but being misunderstood. This course is for you if you want to: ✅ Understand what ADHD really is — beyond the stereotypes. ✅ Communicate more effectively with people who think and feel differently. ✅ Learn why ADHD brains behave the way they do — and how to work with that difference, not against it. ✅ Support friends, students, children, or colleagues with empathy, clarity, and patience. ✅ Appreciate the strengths of ADHD — creativity, curiosity, drive, and resilience. Across ten easy-to-follow sections, we’ll explore the psychology, neurology, emotions, and daily realities of ADHD — using simple metaphors, stories, and humour. You’ll learn about hyperfocus, time blindness, motivation, executive function, and emotional regulation — all explained in a way that actually makes sense. This isn’t a clinical lecture; it’s a conversation. No jargon. No judgment. Just real understanding, delivered in a relaxed, spoken-word style that’s as engaging as it is informative. By the end of this course, you’ll see ADHD not as a flaw, but as a different rhythm of the mind. You’ll understand how to help — not by controlling, but by supporting. And most importantly, you’ll learn how to replace frustration with compassion, confusion with clarity, and labels with love. Join me in ADHD: A Guide for Muggles — and learn how to truly understand the people who live with this extraordinary way of being.
