Meet Kyla — Founder of Empowered ADHD

Former CEO. Late-diagnosed. 

I spent years pushing harder, achieving more, and quietly burning out behind the mask. From the outside, it looked like success. Inside, it never felt like enough. My ADHD diagnosis at 50 changed everything. 

Why I Became an ADHD Coach.

I climbed the corporate ladder fast, led high-performing teams, and built three businesses, powered by perfectionism and held together by intermittent burnout.

It wasn’t until my kids were diagnosed that I finally saw the pattern in myself. Suddenly, it all made sense: The drive. The overwhelm. The perfectionism. The guilt. The silent struggle. ADHD wasn’t the flaw however, it was the piece I’d been missing. 

Now, I coach professionals, students, and parents navigating neurodiverse lives - to unmask their strengths, break the burnout cycle, and build a version of success that finally feels good.

 Unmasked, understood, and unapologetically real.
