Executive function coaching for entrepreneurs and creatives
A holistic approach to executive functioning and creative strategy for individuals and entrepreneurs.
Meghan Michalski is an executive function coach and mentor. She is not a therapist, counselor, psychologist, or medical provider, and she does not diagnose, treat, or provide therapy. Coaching is educational, organizational, and skills-based. It is not a substitute for clinical care and is not a crisis service.
Who is this executive function coaching for?
Executive function coaching with Meghan Michalski is also for individuals and entrepreneurs who want stronger planning, prioritizing, time management and focus, along with creative strategy, in their work. If you run your own venture or do creative work, and you want support with how you organize your time, your thinking and your attention, this page is for you.
Meghan describes her work as a holistic approach to executive functioning and creative strategy, grounded in theory and research on organizational and socio-emotional strategies.
What does the coaching cover?
Meghan builds the executive function skills that support daily success. The skills she builds include:
- Planning and prioritizing
- Communication and thought organization
- Cognitive flexibility
- Time management
- Staying steady under stress
Around those skills, the work can draw on several tools:
- Strategies for growth. Building interpersonal and professional skills, plus creative, organization and attentional strategies to support meaningful change.
- Attention training. Evidence-informed techniques that aim to support awareness and concentration.
- Mindfulness practices. Meditation techniques that aim to support self-awareness and concentration.
- A writing and creative-process method. Aims to support confidence alongside executive function skills.
New strategies are first practiced with support. Meghan then works so that you can use them independently, and aims to support your confidence and your understanding of why the strategies matter for performance. The aim is long-term self-sufficiency.
How does the coaching work?
Meghan starts by learning how you think, plan, and take in information, and she prioritizes trust and rapport while she does. She then adapts concepts and organizational strategies to the way you perceive and understand things. Her approach is relational: she holds space for authenticity while using your strengths and building up your growth areas.
Sessions are one to one and ongoing, at a regular cadence. This is a long-term coaching relationship, not a fixed-length program. Meghan offers sessions virtually or in person. You can see the areas she serves on the locations page.
Alongside, not instead of, clinical care
Where a person already has clinicians, Meghan works alongside them, never instead of them.
