Stop feeling misunderstood and frustrated by trying to navigate a work world that wasn't designed for you.
I help ADHD professionals leverage their Executive Functioning skills to
pursue a career they actually love.
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.
Do these words sound uncomfortably familiar?
LAZY
I see everyone else in the hive working their wings off while I just sit here paralyzed. It isn’t "executive dysfunction"—it’s a lack of discipline. I am an idle worker who refuses to contribute to the honey flow, and I’m just using my "struggles" as an excuse to avoid hard work.
MESSY
The mountains of stuff on my desk (and floor) and the digital chaos in my computer prove that I’m inherently disorganized and sloppy, and will never be the kind of worker bee the rest of the swarm respects.
INTENSE
My natural state is a social hazard. If I don't mask my intensity and keep my mouth shut, I will eventually drive everyone away with my noise.
IMPOSTER
I’m just a kid in a worker-bee suit, and I’m terrified that the "real" adults are going to realize I’m just pretending any second now.
FRAUD
Every success I’ve ever had was a fluke or a lucky mistake. I’m not actually capable; I’m just good at hiding how behind, incapable, or clueless I really am.
BROKEN
I am the Ferrari with no wheels. I have all the "talent" in the world and absolutely nothing to show for it except a pile of unfinished projects. I have tried to "start over" so many times that I don't believe in change anymore. I am destined to live in this cycle of burnout and failure until I finally just give up.
You’ve been told you’re “not enough”.
You've also been told you're “too much”.
You've struggled, been labeled, and felt like you’re constantly playing catch-up while everyone around you seems to have it all figured out.
Let me take my decades of experience
(a.k.a. struggling to figure out this stuff on my own) and boil it down to actionable strategies you can learn in weeks.
What if a typical day looked (and felt) like this..?
What if you woke up to a brain that was ready to fly?
No mental static, no "127 open tabs", just a solid plan and the quiet energy to clear the runway and launch into your day.
What if lunch wasn’t a "guilty escape" from a mountain of work?
Imagine stepping away from your desk because you’ve already crushed your big goals. Food tastes better when you’ve earned the break.
What if the 3 PM wall just... disappeared?
Instead of fighting the "afternoon slump" or scrolling to avoid that one big task, you’re riding a wave of focus that feels almost effortless.
What if closing your laptop didn't mean dropping into "zombie mode"?
Imagine having enough fuel left in the tank to be fully present for the people who matter most. No masking, no exhaustion—just you.
What if you could finally say, "I’m done"?
No projects looming ominously in the back of your mind. No "ADHD tax" hanging over your head. Just freedom to enjoy yourself, guilt-free.

EARLY-CAREER
For those just entering the fields, we focus on moving from academic scaffolding to self-directed flight.
Backcasting for Beginners: We'll convert your big career dreams into actionable first steps so you don't get paralyzed by the size of the field.
The 2-Minute Rule: We'll experiment with this tactic to lower the "activation barrier" and kickstart a momentum loop for tasks you’d normally avoid.
Micro-Chunking: We’ll deconstruct scary assignments into steps so small that your Executive Dysfunction won't know what to do with itself.
Virtual Swarming (Body Doubling):
We'll explore platforms like Focusmate or Flown to provide the social anchor your brain needs to stay on task without wandering off.
MID-Career
For seasoned bees, the focus shifts to navigating complexity, managing inner chaos, & leading the swarm.
Energy-Aware Scheduling: Instead of rigid time-blocking, we’ll match high-dopamine tasks to your peak energy hours so you aren't fighting a drained battery.
Centralized Hive Management: We’ll experiment with digital tools like Akiflow or Notion to host your "Second Brain," ensuring no strategic detail slips through the cracks.
The "Get Space" Ritual: We'll introduce you to physiological resets that disrupt the stress cycle of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) during high-stakes feedback.
The Pause Button Method: You’ll learn to mentally "pause" during meetings to allow your prefrontal cortex to catch up with your emotions, enhancing your work presence and personal confidence.
CAREER TRANSITION
If you’re ready to fly to a completely new patch of clover, we'll partner on a targeted pivot strategy.
The Identity Audit: We start by stripping away "society’s script" to define a professional identity that is authentically yours.
Asset Cataloging: We identify your "ADHD superpowers" — like hyperfocus and liminal thinking — and map them to roles that fit.
The Validation Phase: We’ll use real-world occupational data to test your new options before you commit your energy to the move.
The Career Blueprint: We’ll craft a comprehensive life plan that aligns your new career trajectory with your personal vision and financial needs.
Rapid Prototyping:
We reframe potential missteps as "prototypes" rather than failures, reducing shame and fueling forward momentum toward your next chapter.
EARLY CAREER
building A foundational flight plan that works for you
If you are leaving the training hive for the first time, you are likely struggling with the shift from academic structure to a self-directed workforce.
We’ll build a personalized "operating system" for your brain — one designed to handle the mental load of planning and organizing, so your internal worker bee can stop making excuses and start finishing tasks.
This phase is about moving from feeling stuck in "perpetual wait-mode" to a enjoying a state of frictionless momentum.
MID CAREER
NAVIGATING WORK & LIFE COMPLEXITY WITH CONFIDENCE
For established professionals managing a complex honeycomb of projects and people, it’s time to move beyond reactive survival.
We'll experiment with digital tools that can serve as a cloud sync for your mind, and learn how to use Radical Candor to advocate for your needs instead of masking your struggles in the back of the hive.
This shift leverages the strengths of your unique brain, giving you the confidence and composure to navigate the daily swarm.
CAREER TRANSITION
honing your signature waggle-dance & finding your new field
If you’re ready to fly to a completely new patch of clover, we'll partner on a targeted pivot strategy that (re)aligns your career goals with your "Magnetic North" purpose.
You'll learn to "untangle" the knots of old, unhelpful habits weighing down your wings, and work together to script in your new professional identity.
This track is designed to transform your career search from a source of anxiety into an empowering journey toward a field that is worthy of your unique talents.

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 ADHD 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.
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.
Do you work with college students?
BOOK YOUR FREE CONSULTNot typically, but you're welcome to book a time on my calendar and we can discuss your particular situation and needs.
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.
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.
