Biography
Adela Baker, PCAC, founded Mind Coach NOLA, LLC in 2016. Based in New Orleans, but with clients around the world, she is a full-time ADHD coach and mom. She mainly coaches adults with executive function skill deficits and turbo thinker benefits, who tend to be innovative, perspicacious, spontaneous, and generally fascinating people. Adela graduated from Tufts University with dual bachelor's degrees in French and Spanish and is fluent in five languages-English, Spanish, French, Dutch, and Italian. Due to her years of working with turbo thinkers, she understands what's needed to succeed professionally, in addition to what they require for happiness and balance. She resides in New Orleans with her ADHD son and dog, and neurotypical daughter and cat. When not coaching or caring for her children, Adela can be found playing volleyball, practicing yoga, hula hooping, salsa dancing, roller skating and volunteering in her community, especially for ADHD awareness and outdoor adventure programs. Adela enjoys facilitating ADHD group coaching as well as private individual sessions.
Frankie Berkoben (she/her) is an executive coach for brilliant ADHD professionals in tech, helping them work WITH their brains rather than "fix", mask or overcompensate.

Clients work with Frankie to design a life of authenticity and fulfillment, to develop their unique brand of leadership and generate a rich support ecosystem that's effortless to maintain.
