Andrea Urquhart

Hey there! I'm Andrea Urquhart:

I'm a Certified Advanced AuDHD coach, trained professionally in Coaching Psychology and Applied Positive Psychology working with leaders and founders. A cancer and divorce survivor, I enjoy my children and grandchildren and having deep conversations about living a full and personally fulfilling life.

I like dog walks and deep conversations, science based wellbeing insight and carrot cake, good books and people who lead with integrity.

I dislike toxicity in all its forms - especially when people take the power tool of positive psychology and misuse it. I don't like fakery either.

If you're looking for a corner of the internet where we talk about growing emotional strength, leadership and neurodivergent life in a healthy way, you've found the right podcast community for you here!

You're so welcome here! I hope you enjoy the Strengthen Live podcast. Welcome to my Strengthen world!
