"The English call it finding yourself.
The French call it an existential crisis. Let us just call it coaching."
You think you have ADHD. It fits.
Or you have just been diagnosed and left to your own device.
Perhaps, you have tried the planners, the apps, the colour-coded calendars. The "just be more consistent" phase. Possibly several therapists.
You are not starting from zero, and you are not the problem.
Research shows that up to 60% of adults with ADHD report significant difficulties with time management, emotional regulation, and relationships (Barkley, 2015). What you need is someone who works with your brain, not against it.
You may be neuroqueer. That means the ADHD and the queer identity compound. You are managing your mask, your relationships, and the world's expectations, all before lunch.
The English would call this "a bit much." The French would write a very long letter of complaint to their local prefecture.
Studies show that LGBTQ+ individuals experience significantly higher rates of anxiety and burnout linked to minority stress (Meyer, 2003). When you are carrying both, the weight is its own category entirely:
The brilliant idea vanished before the meeting; the failed relationship conversation where you couldn't find the words; the Sunday family evening dread...
This is what coaching at Unique Conversations addresses. Not the surface, what lies underneath.
Together we find your tailored approach to time, work, relationships, finances, and routine. Not a generic system, your system.
The goal is a Tuesday afternoon that feels manageable; Work that does not require you to be someone else. Relationships where you can be completely yourself.
I am French and I have lived most of my adult life in England. I have spent my career at the intersection of neurodivergence, queer identity, and I have navigated both. I understand this from the inside, not just from the textbooks.
Coaching de vie et de couple en Francais
Coaching pour expatriés francophones
Vous avez quitté la France avec deux valises, un plan solide, et une confiance relative dans votre capacité à vous adapter.
Trois mois plus tard, vous avez découvert que pour les Britanniques "not bad" signifie en réalité "excellent." Le choc culturel est réel, et il est sous-estimé.
ETRE EXPATRIÉ FRANCOPHONE génère un stress que l'on minimise souvent: mal du pays, isolement discret. L'impression de performer dans une langue, une culture, un rôle, sans jamais tout à fait vous y reconnaître. Et cette tension ne reste pas à la porte quand vous rentrez chez vous. Elle s'installe dans votre couple, vos conversations, votre humeur du dimanche soir.
Vous ne manquez pas d'ambition. Vous manquez d'un ESPACE POUR VOUS POSER ET RÉFLÉCHIR, en français, un endroit où vous vous sentez vous et chez vous, avec quelqu'un qui comprend le tiraillement entre deux cultures.
Le coaching à Unique Conversations vous aide à REPRENDRE CONFIANCE, à VOUS INTEGRER à votre propre rythme, à saisir de nouvelles opportunités professionnelles sans perdre qui vous êtes, et à mieux gérer les répercussions sur votre relation. Parce que quand vous allez mieux, votre couple respire différemment.
Vous pouvez consulter individuellement ou en couple, en français ou franglais, sans avoir à tout réexpliquer.
Si vous vous sentez en BURNOUT, je propose des séances intensives de 90 minutes en français pour les professionnels avec un plan d'action personnalisé livré sous 48 heures.
Is Coaching Right for You?
A practical and reflective approach to moving forward
You are a good fit if:
-
You have been told you are too much, not enough, or somehow both in the same week
-
You know exactly what you want but cannot quite get out of your own way
-
You have finished counselling and want a clear plan for what comes next
-
You are done performing and ready to build something that actually fits
-
You are ready to step outside your comfort zone, with support and without an audience
If any of this sounds familiar, let us talk.
A discovery call costs nothing and explains everything.
No appointment letter required, no queue, and I promise not to go on strike halfway through.
