LUKE SOMMERLAD

Hi, I’m Luke.

I was diagnosed with ADHD in 1994, and for most of my life, I was taught little about the practical aspects of managing this condition.

The focus on managing my ADHD challenges was on medication, which meant I spent years in trial and error mode, testing different solutions to get a better grip on my condition. Eventually, after many hours of researching ADHD and finding a coach, I left a well-paid, comfortable job to make a difference to other ADHDers. I wanted to offer the help I wish I always had, so I enrolled with the ADD Coach Academy (ADDCA), the global leader in ADHD training.

With a passion for food and continued study through IIHN in advanced nutrition and health coaching as part of a nutritional therapy diploma, I incorporate education on nutrition in my sessions, including practical menu planning and fun recipe creation.

Since my diagnosis, I’ve completed a four-year chef’s apprenticeship, held the position of executive chef in 13 hotels, been a trained butler and house manager, and managed large teams and luxury international properties for high-profile individuals. These leadership roles enabled me to create systems in people’s lives and bring out the best in them.

I believe that ADHDers have an incredible amount to offer the world, and I will help you elevate your talents.

Let’s explore your excellence, appreciate you for being you and embrace your ADHD. Together, we’ll work with your brain rather than against it.
