✨ Big announcement: We're so excited to make The Shimmer ADHD Mastery available to the public finally! 

Originally exclusive to our members, The Shimmer ADHD Mastery is an awareness & coaching tool that helps you to learn more about how your ADHD shows up, and how to move forward from that space of awareness. 

🔬 Science-Backed Approach: 

Led by our Lead Coaching Psychologist, Xenia Angevin MBA FCIArb MSc(Psych), The Shimmer ADHD Mastery was developed in the Shimmer Research Lab, and is grounded in positive psychology, and evidence-based models. 

The questions themselves were derived from a thematic analysis of Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale (BDEFS). It provides actionable strategies tailored to your unique ADHD needs.

If you’re curious to learn more about the methodology and scientific backing, check out our latest blog post at shimmer.care/blog

🚀 How It Works:

1. Assessment: Discover insights into how your ADHD shows up, from time management to getting things done to emotional regulation.

2. Strategy Guide: Following the assessment, you’ll get a comprehensive strategy guide to your email with practical tips in each of the assessment domains.

3. Support (optional): Sign up for our 1:1 ADHD coaching with our expert ADHD coaches to help you translate awareness into real-world change.

We'll drop the link to take the free 10-min quiz in the comments, along with the accompanying blog post if you want to learn more about the Shimmer ADHD Mastery.

We're so excited for you to meet one of our Co-Founders here at Shimmer and also our Chief Technology Officer, Vikram Sreedhar! Vikram is an integral part of our team and makes sure that things are running smoothly behind the scenes.

Here's a bit more from Vikram:

❓Why are you working at Shimmer:

This stems largely from my interest in the mental health space as I’ve found many people generally don’t have access to proper support systems to help them move forward. I feel very privileged to have had some key people in my own life who helped me get to where I am, so I want to return the favor and make a significant impact in the world using my tech background to provide accessible care for everyone (starting with the ADHD community!)

❓Why are you excited about your role and why do you think it’s important to the greater mission: 

I love being a co-founder, and especially working in a technical role as CTO. I’ve always wanted to continue growing my technical skills while working on social impact initiative, and Shimmer truly allows me to have the best of both worlds. In both roles, I get the opportunity to lead our product’s vision and make sure we’re continuously building features and enhancements that make a real difference in our users’ lives and encourage them to continue pursuing their goals with their coach by their side.

❓Which Shimmer value do you most embody and why: 

I would have normally said Empathy in Action as empathy is my personal #1 value, but I’ve recently resonated a lot more with Joy in the Journey as I realized that life is short, and it’s important to cherish all the moments that happen along our individual paths. Working on a startup isn’t easy, so I want to make sure I’m always enjoying the hopefully very long journey ahead with my amazing team, loved ones, and everyone else I get the opportunity to meet along the way!

We're so glad you're here, Vikram! ✨

My coaching style, a testament to human potential, fosters connection and propels individuals toward ADHD goals. As an eclectic coach, I seamlessly blend ACT, CBT, DBT, and solution-focused approaches to meet diverse challenge.

❓What's your favorite part of being an ADHD coach?

Helping support the ADHD community and increasing understanding of ADHD. Transcending geographical boundaries, resonating with individuals worldwide. Connecting with people all around the world and providing support to improve people’s lives.

❓ What’s your favorite part about Shimmer?

The fact that there is a company providing top-level and affordable ADHD coaching support to individuals. After meeting the founders, I was taken away by the sense of community and visions for the future for ADHD and neurodivergent coaching support.

❓ What advice would you give someone starting coaching?

Congratulations on your courageous step towards change! Acknowledging the need for support is powerful, and I commend your embrace of it. Ahead lies not just a journey but a transformative experience holding answers and sought-after support. Patience and trust become your compass and guide, surpassing initial uncertainties. Brace for a voyage of self-discovery; you’ve embarked on a path where empowerment replaces disappointment.
