If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, you are likely to be a very sensitive and intelligent woman who has often felt "different" for most of your life. Perhaps you feel like you have not lived up to your full potential. Most likely, you also have a Creative Personality Type. It is also possible that you have been diagnosed with Adult ADHD or have a family member with ADHD. But when you suffer from the pain and stress of disorganization, getting a diagnosis or putting a label on yourself doesn't really matter as much as getting help that works, does it?
Whether or not you have received any kind of formal diagnosis, if you struggle with any of the above issues, we can help. Designing strategies and solutions for building more success into your life is the cornerstone of the Getting Unstuck coaching programs.
Whether or not you have been diagnosed with ADHD, I've found that solutions that work for ADD clients, work for EVERYONE! After all, the world of tempting distractions we live in today tends to make everyone feel like they have ADD!

You may have read lots of organizing books or taken a bunch of classes to help you manage your time and balance your life. But still, the problems persist. You know what to do, but you still struggle to actually act consistently on what you know. If you tend to clean up, get organized, start a diet or exercise program and do great for a week or two, but then don't maintain them - you are exactly the kind of woman this program is designed for.
You are NOT alone! Working as a professional organizer and coach, I discovered that there are MANY women, even very successful women, who are suffering in silence as they fail time and again to stick to their intentions, or to put other people's organizing systems and ideas into action and then maintain them. It's an epidemic. Millions of brilliant, compassionate women feeling that they are "not good enough" or even "defective" in some way - just because they are different from the "norm."
It's such a needless waste of human potential when all you need to break out of this cycle is to understand how your brain works differently, accept it, and work WITH who you are instead of try so hard to change yourself. What really needs changing is your negative beliefs about yourself and your systems! That's what I help you do.
Getting Unstuck Programs are Really Different
My Getting Unstuck coaching programs are exclusively designed to help women just like you break out of these painful and frustrating patterns. In my programs, I don't just lecture and tell you what works for me. I help you apply key concepts and skills to your life challenges. I help you let go of the past and change the way you feel about yourself so you have the confidence to make lasting changes that really work to help you take charge of your life.
How Group Coaching Works
Using a combination of coaching, education and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, I help you reframe negative beliefs and learn how to channel your emotional energy to work for you instead of against you. In every program, we work on developing your ability to coach yourself to solve problems, and to use more self-affirmative self-talk that empowers you instead of drains you.
My approach to coaching involves:
- Deeply listening to your problems
- Asking questions to help you define the real problem clearly
- Guiding you to figure out CUSTOM strategies that work with your unique life and your UNIQUE personality
- Sharing ideas and helping you make decisions that work for you
- Rebuilding your self-esteem and self-confidence
- Helping you build and strengthen skills such as stress management, boundary setting, organizing, and more
- Supporting you in staying motivated and focused on results
If you are ready to truly Get Unstuck, Get Into Action and
Take Charge of Your Life, I warmly invite you to join one of our programs and make 2010 the year you SUCCEED in taking charge of your life!
Are you ready to break the cycle of struggle and make life more fun?

Group Coaching is Highly Effective and Affordable, Too!
Private Coaching typically costs $100 per hour and up. Not only does group coaching save you a LOT of money, you get to connect with a group of gifted and talented women who really understand you. Women who are willing to share their struggles openly so that you can learn from them, too. Hundreds of women participated in my programs in 2009, and ALL of them agree.
Listening to others being coached is sometimes even MORE effective than being coached yourself!
Especially if you are shy or nervous about speaking up in a group. Everyone in my group has said they learn just as much from being present when others are being coached as they do from being coached themselves. In fact, we have a core group of women who have been with the program for all of 2009 and they have all made significant progress in improving their self-acceptance, reducing stress and clutter, getting organized, monitoring their spending, being on time more often, and some are even finally getting their businesses organized! Many of us are also losing weight, exercising more, eating healthier, and liking ourselves a whole lot more.
Don't just take my word for it --
listen to what raving fans are saying about how Getting Unstuck group coaching programs have changed their lives!

"Finally, a group of people that really understand me and my thought process!"
"Thank you for starting this group. It has been so refreshing to find a group of people that really understand me and my thought process. I have not been diagnosed with ADD but I have the traits - it explains so many things. I'm not crazy or lazy -- my brain just works differently!
I keep going through the material on the website and always find something that is applicable to my life -- some tool I can use or some explanation that makes sense.
Your group + private coaching has truly changed my life! I have gone from years of stagnant clutter to actually ENJOYING the process of clearing clutter and cleaning. My family is shocked and so am I. It took me a couple months to really change the way I think...but
Wow! Now, I can't imagine ever going back to the way I was. Thank you Thank you Thank you!"

Ariane Benefit, M.S.Ed. Life Coach, ADHD Coach, Author
Expert in Overcoming Chronic Disorganization and Thriving with ADD,
Author of the Neat & Simple Living Blog
Over the past 50 years, I have gone from growing up in a tenement on welfare to performance improvement consulting with numerous Fortune 500 companies to being successfully self-employed as a business consultant, web-based learning and performance support designer, project manager, sales and leadership development designer and content writer, organizing consultant, and personal coach since 1993. My journey has given me more than a lifetime of experience to draw upon to help you succeed both personally and professionally.
Having conquered my own issues with excessive clutter, debt, addictive spending, undiagnosed ADHD, highly creative personality, disorganization, depression, and PTSD, I've personally experienced the power of group coaching, learning and clutter clearing to make room for and manifest what you really want in life. Things like more intimacy, authentic connection with friends and family, work you love, and inspired action.
I have helped hundreds of clients release their shame, embrace their imperfections, and harness their creative strengths to conquer their clutter and organizing challenges. In 2009, as a member of my own group, I've conquered yet another personal challenge. I've lost over 50 pounds! I didn't set out to do that, but the power of authentic connection with a group over time has helped me take my own life to another level of success.
I am passionately dedicated to sharing the mindset, energy and methods that REALLY WORK for those of us who are highly creative and improvisational and therefore, tend to: lose track of time; get bored with routines; have issues with formal planning systems; get distracted by a constant flood of new ideas; and have trouble maintaining conventional organizing systems.
My mission is to make high quality coaching available to women who need it via affordable group coaching. And I'm not pretending I know it all...I am learning right along with you. That's why I occasionally bring in other experts to share their wisdom with you as well.
I have over 25 years experience working with people from all walks of life to facilitate learning, personal growth, and lasting lifestyle changes. In addition to my master's in education, I hold 2 Specialist certificates in Chronic Disorganization and ADD organizing, as well as 9 other certificates from the National Study Group on Chronic Disorganization including Hoarding, Mental Health Challenges, and more.

3 Group Coaching Sessions by Phone with Me
|
| |
Each month we use the same basic structure as described below, but we choose a topic / challenge to help you focus on a particular problem. We cover the same challenge for 2 months to provide a more intensive learning and growth experience.
 2 Morning Group Coaching Sessions - These sessions run 90 minutes to 2 hours and include a combination of teaching and personal coaching designed to help you get unstuck and break through your challenges. The Group Coaching sessions give you a chance to share your challenges, or listen to others, and get expert help to break through the obstacles keeping you stuck in patterns that don't serve you.
1 Evening "Get Into Action" Session. This session is designed to make working on your projects a whole lot more fun! Bring any task you normally tend to get stuck on, and a timer, and we'll help you get started. A speakerphone or headset will make participating much more fun. Everyone will share what they will work on - It could be anything from clutter clearing, to cleaning, to writing, to getting caught up with email, filing, or even menu planning. Then we regroup and share our progress and get coaching if needed. Working together is a lot more fun than working alone!

 "Being an active member of the Getting Unstuck group coaching program has been tremendously helpful to me these past few months. You have helped me see my organizing issues in ways I had never considered before. I've been repeatedly energized by following through with your suggestions!
I've listened to all of the weekly calls live and the help I've received has certainly been worth it! Thanks so much!

More Benefits of the Getting Unstuck Programs
I was inspired to create this program to provide you with the following benefits:
- Affordability. I have received hundreds of desperate calls from women struggling with depression, clutter, ADD, time management, stress and emotional overwhelm, financial issues and chronic illnesses who can't afford one-on-one help. This combined telephone and online program format is a highly affordable way to obtain the support you need.
- The Option for Long Term Support for Maintenance. Research shows that if you have been chronically disorganized your entire life, and / or if you have ADD, you have likely experienced the emotional trauma and shame that is inherently part of growing up "different". Long term support of 6 - 12 months is often a necessary ingredient in maintaining your hard earned success. Relapsing is a normal part of healing and recovery. My programs provide an ongoing resource to help you stay inspired and get back on track after a relapse as you learn to maintain success over time. You are ALWAYS welcome back!
- The Healing Power of Connecting with Others and Releasing Toxic Shame. Sharing experiences with others in a supportive environment is the BEST and FASTEST way to let go of the life-long shame and self-criticism that comes along with clutter and organizing issues. The healing energy of the group can't be duplicated working one-on-one.
- Rebuilding your Self-Esteem and Self Confidence. One thing people with ADHD and/or Chronic Disorganization have in common is that no matter how successful they are, they tend to over-focus on their "flaws." They didn't value themselves for the treasures they were. They had difficulty with consistent self-care rhythms like sleeping, meal planning, and eating healthy. Our programs incorporate coaching in all these areas.

A Personal Message from Ariane
I know what it's like when stress, overwhelm, money problems, clutter and disorganization are ruining the quality of your life. Having conquered my own issues with excessive clutter, debt, addictive spending, ADHD, PTSD, and disorganization, I've personally experienced the power of learning, group support, clutter clearing and energy repatterning to help make room for and manifest what you really want in life.
With my Getting Unstuck programs, you won't be alone with your struggle any more! I totally understand what it's like to feel overwhelmed trying to juggle family, home, work, finances, relationships, health and all the multiple priorities in your life. My programs are especially designed to address the needs of women who have tried many paths but haven't gotten lasting results.
I know how hard it is to put yourself out there and trust that people won't judge you. I will do my very best to live up to your trust and would be incredibly honored to be part of your journey to living a simpler, easier life!
I also understand that you have to be ready to commit the time and energy it takes to work on making your life better. So whatever your decision is about our current programs, I hope you will allow me to stay in touch by joining my FREE newsletter below and accepting my FREE e-books!
