Hi, I'm Mandy Beats.
I'm an ADHD & Executive Functioning Coach for creatives and professionals

Hi, I’m Mandy Beats, and I’m passionate about helping individuals—especially creatives and professionals—unlock their full potential, despite the challenges that come with ADHD and executive functioning difficulties. With over a decade of experience as an educator, dyslexia specialist, and executive functioning coach, I’ve developed a unique approach to coaching that blends practical, evidence-based strategies with empathy and understanding.

​

My journey in education began with a Bachelor of Arts in English and World Literature and a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction, both from George Mason University. For years, I worked in some of the Washington, D.C. area’s most prestigious private schools, including Georgetown Day School, Burgundy Farm Country Day School, and The Country Day School. In the classroom, I witnessed firsthand how students with ADHD, dyslexia, and other learning differences experience the world in a unique way. This insight led me to specialize in developing strategies for improving executive functioning, focus, and organization.

​

As a dyslexia specialist and instructor at the Institute for Multi-Sensory Education, I worked with educators and parents to create actionable strategies that helped children and adults manage learning differences more effectively. Over time, I realized my true calling was to help adults—particularly creatives and entrepreneurs—take control of their daily lives, optimize their work habits, and overcome the overwhelm that often comes with ADHD.

​

My journey took an exciting turn when I met my husband, a music producer and jumped into the music industry. Together, we founded TMI MGMT, a record label and company dedicated to artist management. In this new field I began managing artists, show booking, and providing educational support for musicians navigating the complexities of the industry. Through this venture, I had the privilege of working with a wide array of musicians and creatives, collaborating with major record labels like Sony and Warner Music, and booking large-scale festivals such as Electric Forest and Firefly. I also developed a music management course at Omega Recording School to help up-and-coming artists build sustainable careers and I wrote “The Best Branding Book for the Music Industry”, an interactive notebook to help musicians develop their branding.

​

This experience of working with musicians, performers, and artists opened my eyes to the unique challenges faced by creatives with ADHD, especially when it comes to organization, time management, and maintaining focus in a world full of distractions. It’s this deep understanding that now shapes my approach to coaching for creatives and business professionals. I’m able to combine my educational background with my real-world experience with ADD myself, to provide tailored strategies that help people stay creative, organized, productive, and in control—whether they’re working on their next big project or managing the day-to-day demands of their business.

​

Today, I specialize in helping ADHD adults—particularly those in creative industries—develop practical, multisensory strategies for improving executive functioning. My coaching focuses on overcoming the challenges of focus, time management, and task completion—skills that are essential for both personal and professional success. I understand that living with ADHD can make even simple tasks feel overwhelming, but with the right tools and systems in place, you can thrive.

Whether you're a creative or entrepreneur, I help you create personalized routines and structures that allow you to focus, stay organized, and maximize productivity—without feeling bogged down by the chaos and boosting creativity.
