On paper, George should be happy.
He has a supportive wife, two healthy children, a university degree and a job that pays the bills.
Yet George is miserable and feels a little more frustrated with himself every day.
Each morning he wakes up sleep-deprived and with a sense of dread about the day ahead. Life doesn’t seem fun; it feels like something to get through.
His ADHD symptoms are managed just well enough that he can do what is required of him to avoid getting fired or having arguments at home.
However, he lives with an uneasy feeling of dissatisfaction that he is capable of so much more.
which actually makes him feel worse not better
After all, if he is smart, why can’t he figure this out? He is a little resentful of his friends’ achievements.
Their successes seemed to come easily.
If he told people how he feels, they would be shocked because to the outside world, George seems cheerful, articulate and easy going.
Nobody sees how hard George has to work behind the scenes to give that ‘normal’ appearance.
George feels stuck. He calls it a ‘failure loop’ because no matter how hard he tries he can’t seem to break it.
He often experiments with new techniques or tactics that could help his ADHD. He is always optimistic that this will be THE thing that will change everything.
However, after a week or three, he stops doing it. Perhaps it’s because the technique doesn’t seem to be working or because he forgets.
That only seems to prove to George that he really is stuck.

At the end of the day when everyone else is in bed, George stays up and surfs the internet, mindlessly flicking through websites until he finds an article interesting enough to read.
Before he knows it, it’s 3 a.m. and, feeling defeated, he drags himself to bed. He is painfully aware that his alarm will be ringing in three and a half hours. He feels annoyed with himself (again) for not going to bed like a regular person. He is so sick of breaking promises to himself.
I have been an ADHD coach for the past 13 years.
During that time I have heard many stories like George’s.
As heartbreaking as the stories are, I know the person’s life won’t be that way much longer. When people contact me, I know they are ready for some big changes. And it’s my job to help them.
At the start of the conversation, people are understandably skeptical.
As much as they want help for their ADHD, they also want to protect themselves from getting excited and hopeful only to be disappointed… again.
They have probably worked with many different professionals over the years and tried a variety of different tactics.
Why would this be different?
A message I hear again and again from the people I have worked with:
‘Jacqueline is the only professional that has been able to help me.’
I might never know the exact reasons for these successes, but I can make a good guess. :)
It’s a combination of my formal education (nurse, psychology degree, coach) and my personal experience of living with severe dyslexia. While ADHD and dyslexia are different conditions, there is enough of an overlap that I understand really well the challenges people with ADHD have – so well in fact that people ask, ‘Are you psychic?’ or, ‘Are you in my head right now?’
I’m not! :) However, this deep understanding and years of experience allow me to know what helps ADHD symptoms, what doesn’t, what should take priority and what can be left for later or even forgotten completely.
"Jacqueline is the ONLY professional who has ever been able to make a difference. After years of frustration, near misses and unfulfilled dreams, Jacqueline managed to tap into what makes me tick and utilize my strengths.” "
I understand what are the easiest things for a person living with ADHD to implement to give them the biggest results.
Over the years I have developed a sequence of habits and techniques that, when implemented together, allow ADHD symptoms to be managed naturally. These are the foundation pieces and the backbone of the Untapped Brilliance Signature Coaching program.
Regardless of age, gender or career path, everyone benefits from implementing these keys pieces into their lives.
Because I lay these foundational pieces with all my one-to-one clients, I decided to create a resource library of training videos and worksheets so that my clients can refer to this information again and again.
That is when I had a brain wave! Since this information is universally helpful to all adults with ADHD, why not turn it into a course?
And that is how Essentially Brilliant! was born. It is a bite-sized training resource that will have a really big impact on your life.
It’s hard to make progress in your life if your ADHD symptoms keep sabotaging your efforts.
Here's what you will learn...

"“Without hesitation I recommend anyone struggling with ADHD to work with Jacqui. “I knew that medication wasn’t the only answer and that a major dietary/lifestyle change was needed for me to feel in control of my life. The changes I made not only helped my ADHD, they also helped with my severe insomnia. “Without a doubt, working with Jacqui was one of the best decisions I have made. I would have also saved thousands of dollars on psychiatrists if I had worked with her sooner.”"
If you can spend 10 minutes a day to turn the steps of the course into habits, you will see a really big difference.
Forever!
I hate taking a course with a limited time to access it. That’s why Essentially Brilliant! has lifetime access. This also includes all updates and any new course material that is added in the future.
The videos are made with the busy ADHDer in mind. Each video is 5 minutes or less.
Here is what one ADHDer said.
“Jacqueline! You seem to have a natural ability to break information down and zone in on what is important. Plus, you give solutions in such a way that I can’t wait to jump into action. Thank you!”
It varies with each topic; however seven is average.
Each module includes videos (with slides), worksheets and checklists. Whether you are a visual or auditory learner or like to see the key points in writing, this course has you covered.
It depends how many questions there are. A call could be15 minutes to an hour or longer. Jacqueline will keep answering questions until they have all been addressed.
Yes! The recordings will be posted in the course library where you can access them any time. If you have questions and can’t attend live, just email them to me, Jacqueline and I will be sure to answer them all.
Absolutely! There is a 90 day guarantee. If you finish the course and implement the strategies yet don’t see any results, send me an email within 90 days of purchase. I will be happy to issue a full refund.
There isn’t any one-on-one time with me in this program. However, you are more than welcome to book an individual coaching session if you would like some additional support.
No Facebook group! I have had Facebook groups for past courses and found that the majority of the course participants decided not to join. They were concerned that work colleagues, friends or family would know they were in a group for ADHD – even though it was a secret group.
That is why there are Q and A calls (where only other ADHDers will attend) and not a Facebook group.
Probably. We live in an information-rich world. That is awesome, but also has its drawbacks.
When you have ADHD, too much information can make you feel overwhelmed. That leads to no action. Essentially Brilliant! has enough information that you feel informed without causing information overload. Plus, it’s presented in a way that will help you to take action.
"I am no longer the same person I was. It’s hard to remember the old me now. I learned so much from our coaching. Jacqui has ALL the answers to EVERYTHING. Every problem you throw at her, she immediately gives you a tip or tool to handle that situation." "
Refund Policy
Essentially Brilliant! combines research and real life knowledge I have gathered over the last 13 years of being an ADHD Coach. The information in this course has helped thousands of clients and course participants with their ADHD challenges. I am confident it will help you too.
If for any reason you don’t love this course, I am happy to give you a full refund within 90 days of purchase. Why 90 days? Because it gives you enough time implement the course content and start seeing results.
