    So I didn’t realise I’d got this early, but thank goodness I did! Yes it took me a bit to actually open it, because, you know, adhd. But now I have it’s incredibly accessible and at a time when I’ve really been struggling it is really helping me to make small but impactful changes. It’s so obvious Dani knows their stuff, we knew that, but the spot on detail is so good, like I love it being nice paper to write on, not overwhelming in detail, easy to flick between sections…I could go on, but if you’re thinking of buying this but are worried it’ll fail like others before, I really would say it’s worth a try. Hope it keeps working, that’s often the worry, but it’s so much better than I was atm at least.

    Just got mine! Before it arrived, I was using the pages she sent weekly and they’ve been lifesavers. It’s well thought out and an absolute guilt-free assistant in your daily life. If you struggle with doing even the smallest things, this book can help and give you some direction.

  3. CypherS –

    One of useful books you did not know you needed.
    That’s an impressive accomplishement for the author.

    This!!! This is the anti planner the 4 people in my house who were late diagnosed with ADHD needed. Thank you Dani for *seeing* them and managing to follow through on creating a true gift for those whose brains work differently and who need to create their own ‘users manual’ ????????????????

    So cool. Bought as a present for my ADHD husband but I kind of want to use it instead 🙂

    For real though, looking through it, I saw so many exercises that look like they were created specifically for him. So many unique and creative ways to get things done without adding to the guilt or negative self-talk. I also really like how it’s organized by mood – so he can access different tools based on what type of barrier is in the way.

    And last but def not least, it’s beautiful! And feels very sturdy and well made. My only request is…. please make one for kids next????
