a clearer way forward
welcome & a quick hello from me ♡
I'm Nicole. I'm AuDHD, and I built the Roadmap from my own burnout recovery and years of deep research into what actually helps autistic and ADHD nervous systems.
sound familiar?
you're exhausted and no one gets it
The texts sit unread for weeks.
You cancel more than you show up.
Some days a shower feels like a mountain.
Your bloods come back normal, and you feel anything but.
You've tried the advice.
Rest more, push less, set boundaries, stay positive.
And you're still empty.

love notes
"This is a truly remarkable tool, especially for those of us who don't have surplus energy to trial-and-error our way out of burnout. Not generic advice — insights and practical steps I can actually implement. There isn't anything else like it in the space. A truly valuable resource for anyone navigating neuro-complex burnout."
"Thank you so much for what you created. My quality of life has improved dramatically since using your burnout recovery tools. The lifetime of anxiety and depression, decades of feeling like I just don't fit in anywhere - it all makes sense when viewed through the lens of AuDHD burnout! I didn't realize the weight of what I was carrying around until it was lifted. Thank you for this gift."
"Comprehensive, comforting and honestly life changing… it speaks to the frayed audhd nervous system in a way that is so hard to find in other resources."
"It made me cry a little — similar to the first time I learned about AuDHD and things finally started making sense."
"There is nothing quite like this out there. Neuro-affirmative, specific and covering so many angles but without being overwhelming, so that you can craft your own burnout recovery path and understand yourself so much better."
"Your roadmap has been incredibly grounding — it gently pulls me back to taking care of myself instead of pushing past my limits."
"The Roadmap has really helped me. I've been using in conjunction with the AI-Assistant to help figure out my early warning signs and for creating daily plans for different levels of burnout. Invaluable."
"It's becoming easier to advocate without guilt. I have a much clearer understanding of how my ADHD and autism both contribute and how the needs related to each can contradict. It helps me understand so much more why I've been struggling for so long."
After 50+ years I learned to stop gaslighting myself. I learned to stop hating myself. I learned self-compassion. I reframed my life and my view of myself. That is huge. Of course, I am still in crisis burnout - with zero support except the roadmap. This is a crappy situation, but I'm no longer seeing it as evidence that I'm a worthless human being. Thank you again.
What an absolutely incredible resource you have brought into the world! It's comprehensive, companionable, comforting…and speaks to the frayed nervous system in a way that is so hard to find in other resources. You should feel so proud of what you've done. I know that you have put yourself into it and that's what makes it so valuable.
this is for you if
the recovery roadmap
this is for you if
you were diagnosed late, or self-identified and are learning to unmask after years of high-masking burnout
you were diagnosed young but never got tools that actually worked for your nervous system
you identify as ADHD, Autistic, OR AuDHD the framework applies to all three
you've been burned out for weeks, months or years and standard advice isn't working
your capacity and symptoms fluctuate unpredictably and you need strategies that account for this
you feel guilty every time you try to rest or 'rest' alone isn't helping
you're tired of people including professionals, telling you you're "over-reacting" or offering neurotypical advice
you need neurodivergent-specific tools not generic wellness advice
you're ready to stop trying to get back to "before" and build something sustainable
this is not for you if
the recovery roadmap
this is not for you if
you're looking for a diagnosis or a clinical assessment, this isn't a diagnostic tool
you're expecting a miraculous recovery from a short course. Burnout recovery takes years and adapting life to
you want a 7-day fix and a tidy before-and-after, recovery doesn't move in a straight line
you're in acute crisis right now and need immediate clinical or medical support
you want a rigid daily protocol to follow exactly, this adapts to your capacity instead of overriding it
you're hoping to keep the same output and just need better productivity hacks
works with your support team
This isn't a replacement for professional support, it's a companion to it.
Many people bring The Roadmap to their therapist, coach, or support person and work through it together. It gives you shared language for what you're experiencing and a clear framework to build from.
MEET YOUR GUIDE
I'm Nicole
I was identified at 37 after multiple crisis burnouts, including one hospitalisation. For years I followed advice that never seemed to work. Eventually I realised my autistic and ADHD needs were often pulling in different directions.
Over twenty years as an educator and six years coaching neurodivergent adults, I kept seeing the same pattern. This Roadmap brings together what I learned through lived experience, research, education, coaching, and nervous system work.
Multi-certified coach in ADHD, autism, somatics, parts work, transformational coaching, and trauma-informed practice
20+ years as a neuro-affirming educator
6 years coaching neurodivergent adults through recovery, life design, and somatic healing work (breathwork, yoga, and nervous system regulation)
Lived experience, plus deep research into the intersection of late-diagnosed AuDHD, c-PTSD, POTS, MCAS, hEDS, and PMDD

MEET YOUR GUIDE
I'm Nicole
I was diagnosed AuDHD at 37, after multiple crisis burnouts, one of which landed me in hospital. For years I tried everything I was told and kept ending up back on the floor, before I understood that ADHD and autism were pulling me in opposite directions.
Getting out took years, not weeks. And across twenty years as an educator, then six coaching neurodivergent people of all ages, I kept seeing the same pattern in everyone else too. So I put all of it into one place. This is the roadmap I needed and couldn't find.
Multi-certified coach in ADHD, autism, somatics, parts work, transformational coaching, and trauma-informed practice
20+ years as a neuro-affirming educator, advocating for diverse needs and affirming approaches
6 years coaching neurodivergent adults through recovery, life design, and somatic healing work (breathwork, yoga, and nervous system regulation)
Lived experience, plus deep research into the intersection of late-diagnosed AuDHD, c-PTSD, POTS, MCAS, hEDS, and PMDD
FAQS
What format is it delivered in?
Everything lives in your members portal. From your dashboard, you can find all your free and purchased resources in one place.
Inside the Roadmap course, every stage of the 4-Stage Framework has its own section, broken into short lessons. Each lesson comes with its own 5 to 10 minute audio guide, so you can read, listen, or do both.
So when you want the Demand Audit, you open the Demand Audit, and press play if reading feels like too much that day.
You'll also get the full 120+ page Roadmap PDF. It's hyperlinked, so you can tap from the contents page to any chapter and back again on your desktop, iPad or phone. Printable and fillable versions are there too, if you'd rather write on it or type straight into the worksheets.
The guides work the same way: readable in the portal, and downloadable as full PDFs.
Your portal also gets you into AuDHD Aligned, my free community, with a private chat thread just for Roadmap readers. Ask questions, share the small wins, or lurk quietly for six months if that's what you've got.
Is this only for diagnosed people?
No. If you relate to AuDHD experiences and burnout patterns, this will help you. Self-knowledge matters more than paperwork.
Is this just another PDF I won't use?
This isn't an ebook you read once. It's a framework with a clear path forward. You'll know exactly what stage you're in and what to focus on next. And it's designed to move with you over years — people come back to it again and again.
What if I'm too burned out to read through multiple guides?
The Roadmap was built for exactly this. I wrote it in burnout, for brains in burnout.
You can listen instead of reading. Every lesson has its own 5 to 10 minute audio guide, so you can take it in lying down, with your eyes closed.
Each lesson is short and stands on its own, so you can do one small piece, stop, and pick up where you left off days or weeks later. The PDF is hyperlinked, so you're always one tap from the contents page and never hunting for your place.
If you're not sure where to start, take the interactive Burnout Profile. It's one tap per question, adds up your scores for you, and tells you exactly where to begin. If you're in crisis, it'll point you straight to the
Can I use this with my therapist or coach?
Absolutely — many people do. It gives you both a shared framework and common language for what's happening in your nervous system. Bring it to your next session.
I'm a guy — is this for me?
Yes. The PMDD and hormonal guides are specific to menstruating folks, but the core framework, burnout types, nervous system tools, and demand reduction work for all AuDHD brains.
What currency are the prices in?
USD. Your bank will convert at checkout, $47 USD works out to roughly $67 to $70 AUD, or £35 to £37, depending on the rate that day and what your bank charges for the conversion.
Is there a refund policy?
Yes. 30-day money-back guarantee. If it doesn't help you understand your burnout and give you actionable strategies, email me for a full refund.
Is this roadmap a replacement for therapy or medical care?
No — and it's not meant to be. This is an educational resource that works best alongside professional support. Many people bring The Roadmap to their therapist or coach and work through it together.

Your roadmap has been incredibly grounding. The assessment feels like my North Star. When I start to have moments of feeling better and my mind tells me I should be doing “more,” I go back to the assessment and the roadmap. It gently pulls me back to taking care of myself instead of pushing past my limits.

I've finished the roadmap - once again I have to say what an appealing layout and design, in addition to its excellent concepts. The simplicity, the gentle summaries of the main point, the visual calm of not just the font and colours , but the condensing of complex material into streamlined mental dot points - exactly what a tired brain requires. Thank you!
— MAREE
The assessment was genuinely more helpful than anything else I’ve tried recently. actually seeing the numbers in front of me felt like a permission slip. having the reference sheets to point to is making such a difference in helping me understand what I need. despite the wide range of experiences for AuDHD people, you really captured the holistic experience well. This roadmap feels like it’s sticking with me more than other one’s I have tried. It makes me very proud to be part of a community where we’re all looking out for one another.
