ADHD? Autism? AuDHD? OCD? SPD?
Suspecting? Queuing?
Newly or late-diagnosed?
Or totally confused and overwhelmed?
We’re here to help you figure stuff out.

Hi! We’re Adam, Livia and Nora.
Friends-turned-learning specialists, we’ve spent 17 years creating frameworks and trainings that help people navigate life & work.
Then people kept saying our stuff works great for their neurodivergent conditions…
Can you guess the plot twist we really should’ve seen coming?
Yup! Turns out we were neurodivergent all along!
Join us on our quest to build the definitive online hub for friendly, accessible, science-backed & lived experience-validated peer support, resource and training hub for neurodivergent adults.
The science is in: we’re not going anywhere
Here’s the thing.
The past 30 years saw massive changes in the understanding of neurodivergence. This is all thanks to the breakthrough work of researchers, health professionals, educators, disability activists and neurodivergent adults representing our lived experience.
The result is a shift from a “mental disorders with symptoms” model to conditions and neurotypes with overlapping groups of individual traits (we like to call it The Big Neurodivergent Buffet Table).
And with 100+ traits interacting based on genetics, plus environment, age and various other stuff, that’s why all those one-size-fits-all “solutions” don’t work for most neurodivergent people.
Real support is based on each person’s individual needs. And that changes lives.
The snag? The big systems are catching up slowly.
So huge swathes of adults go undiagnosed, especially women and marginalized groups. Misinformation and stigma are rampant. And lots of support systems don’t work or actively hurt neurodivergent people.
The data’s clear: we’re here, and there’s way more of us than anyone ever thought. This world we live in wasn’t made with us in mind, and changing that will take time — but we can make it easier for ourselves in the meantime.
There’s no point waiting another generation for things to get better on their own.
We set up Weirdly Successful to see how far we can go. Let’s find out together, hey?
We’ve worked with

How we can help
Which of these resonates with you?
I need strategies that work for my brain!
Tried & tested frameworks designed for neurodivergent adults.
- You’ve received your assessment — or very strongly suspect you are neurodivergent.
- You’ve tried all the popular things and they don’t work. (Because they are made for neurotypical people.)
- You want solutions. But you’re overwhelmed. And for the love of God, no more productivity advice!
I am a one-person show and need support!
Support & systems for freelancers, solopreneurs, micro & small business owners
- Why are all the other businesses thriving, and you feel like you’re wading through a swamp every day?
- You knew it wouldn’t be easy, but surely it can’t be this hard… right?
- Most business advice is useless for neurodivergent small-business owners, especially the ones around productivity, time management and creativity.
- It is not your personal failing that these didn’t work for you! We are passionate about helping ND entrepreneurs create systems that actually help them.
Make my company neurodivergent-friendly!

- What you don’t know is what to say, what to do, how to help, how to solve problems and conflicts, and how to be respectful while maintaining a work environment
- You’re done with reheated 80’s consulting advice sprinkled with corpo jargon and with an ADHD sticker slapped on the side. You want something that’s real.

co-occurring conditions
Co-occurrence means that certain neurodivergent traits and conditions naturally tend to appear together. When you’re neurodivergent in one way, you’re more likely to experience other forms of neurodivergence too – research shows this happens in up to 70% of cases. These patterns extend beyond just neurodevelopmental differences to include physical …
