practical skills coaching for a complex world
Silly name.
Serious mission.
You know how bees have this incredible communication system called the waggle dance? It's their signature way of telling other bees where to find "the good stuff".
That's where Wagl gets its name.
My name is Drory, and my experiences as an ADHD human navigating my own 30-year career (and life in general) inspired me to create the neurodiversity-affirming coaching program I wish I had when I was younger — one that celebrates and empowers the unique ways we operate, rather than forcing us to conform to a world that isn't exactly set up for us.
I've already made the foraging trip and learned how to "dance" in a way that served me. Now, I'm here to show you the way, to guide you to the tools, tactics, and strategies that truly serve you.
Together, we'll discover your own
"signature waggle" and help you tap into that inherent rhythm that gets you buzzing in the right direction.
New Paragraph
My name is Drory…
...and for three decades I navigated a successful UX career while carrying the weight of Dyslexia and undiagnosed ADHD. I assumed life was meant to be relentlessly complex—that everyone struggled the way I did.
Then 2013 arrived with an ADHD diagnosis that shattered my misconceptions. Like stepping out of Plato's cave, I didn't see this diagnosis as an endpoint but as illumination — a bright spark revealing strengths I'd never recognized in myself.
Instead of letting struggle define my story, I chose to rewrite it.
I created the coaching experience I wish I'd had — one that doesn't dwell on delays or challenges but celebrates them as essential phases of "preparing to launch." This perspective shift became Wagl's foundation. Even the name embodies motion and readiness — a call to begin a journey where your unique brain isn't just accommodated but celebrated.
Whether you’re a student or a professional, you've probably felt the frustration of trying to navigate a world that wasn't built for you.
It’s time to stop feeling misunderstood and start leveraging the power of your unique brain.
You’ve been told you’re “not enough.” You've struggled, been labeled, and felt like you’re constantly playing catch-up. I get it. But your unique brain isn’t a flaw—it's a force multiplier. My coaching isn't about fixing you; it’s about giving you the tools to thrive exactly as you are. It's a blend of two powerful approaches:
Cognitive Coaching:
Understanding your "inner waggle"
We'll dive into what makes your brain tick, and challenge those assumptions and perceptions you've been lugging around. We’ll help you understand your unique cognitive flexibility and working memory so you can leverage them to your advantage.
Practical Coaching:
Tools & tactics that leverage your strengths
We'll stop chasing what works for everyone else and start building strategies and experimenting with tools and tactics to discover which work for you — from
effective planning and
organization to
boosting your attention and focus.
Let me take my years of experience (a.k.a. struggling to figure out this stuff on my own) and boil it down to actionable strategies, so you can learn this stuff in weeks.

Questions + Answers...
Is coaching right for me?
Are you inherently motivated to achieve your goals, and to effect positive change? Coaches can help you define goals, identify and learn strategies, and incorporate them into daily life, but we can’t do it for you. Motivation needs to be intrinsically strong to see success. It's a journey we take together, but you're in the lead.
Is coaching different from therapy?
Very much so. While I have been trained by a renowned local therapist on how to adapt my coaching practice to meet the needs of folks with ADHD, I am not a healthcare provider and do not diagnose or treat any mental or physical health conditions.
Do I have to be Neurodivergent to work with you?
Nope. While my own experience with ADHD heavily informs my neurodiversity-afirming approach, I welcome anyone who wants to hone their Executive Functioning skills.
What sort of training do you have?
My training is through Coach Training Edu, which is certified by the International Coaching Federation. Additionally, I've received intensive training about ADHD (and coaching people with ADHD) from the experts at Bainbridge Collaborative Counseling.
How many sessions will I need, and do you recommend minimum number of sessions?
That depends on your goals and starting point, but meaningful change won't happen in a single session — developing new skillsets takes time and practice, so the minimum commitment is to ensure you get meaningful value out of the coaching relationship.
If the goal has a milestone or deadline (e.g. prepping for a job interview or learning how to collaborate with colleagues more effectively), then I can certainly tailor the coaching journey to align with that. But in the spirit of "repetition builds skill" the more time you allow for practice the better your outcome.
Do you take insurance?
No, but if your insurance covers coaching you can request a superbill at the end of the month that you can submit to your insurance company.
What age ranges do you support?
I work with college students as young as 20, and working professionals of any age.
If you're already familiar with Wagl Coaching, you may recall that it (a) started as a three-person partnership and (b) served kids as young as 10. At the end of 2024, the three-person partnership elected to disband — so there's just me now. My focus for the partnership was always young adults, so that's why Wagl's age range has shifted.
Can't I just use one of those coaching or habit-training apps?
Some folks do very well with a coaching app on their phone or watch, as it aligns well with their natural self-motivation. An app can indeed support both the messaging of the work and the ongoing execution of an established coaching plan, and some have begun experimenting with basic goal-setting frameworks.
But without human-to-human interaction, much is lost in the coaching journey. Even the most "AI-enabled" app can't interpret non-verbal cues such as body language or facial expressions, or even understand the nuances of the emotions behind the words. Nor is it able to use intuition and life experience to "get beyond the ask" of the client and help them identify the real underlying need — and adapt along the way to ensure the coaching journey remains highly relevant and valuable to the client.
