About Regina McMenomy, Ph.D.
Neurodivergent coach.
Cultural critic.
Certified box-destroyer.
Hi. I'm Regina.
Late-diagnosed neurodivergent “grown-up.”
Ph.D. in Cultural Studies.
Firm believer that you’re not broken, just working in systems that were never built with you in mind.
For most of my life, I did what I was “supposed” to do: perform, achieve, adapt. I built a successful academic career and became an expert in the invisible systems — capitalism, patriarchy, ableism — that shape our lives. But it wasn’t until I was diagnosed with ADHD at nearly 50 that everything finally clicked.
Why I Coach Late-Diagnosed Neurodivergent Adults
Recognizing the burnout. The shame. The masking.
But also: the resilience. The fire. The creative brilliance that never fit the mold.
I help late-diagnosed neurodivergent adults unmask and rebuild lives that actually work. My coaching approach is honest, empowering, and maybe a little spicy. I focus on emotional & nervous system regulation, executive function, identity reclamation, and sustainable systems. No pep talks, no productivity guilt.
You’re not too much. You’re just too you for a world that prefers people quiet and compliant.
Let’s change that.
Why I Do This Work
- I got my Ph.D. because my college mentor told me it was a bad idea.
- I can give a TED-level talk on executive function while forgetting why I walked into the kitchen.
- I started this business after leaving a “dream job” that couldn’t accommodate my ADHD.
- I turn “too intense” into a professional superpower.
- Powered by curiosity, sarcasm, and one perfectly timed meltdown per quarter.
