I'm Catherine Avery

When it comes to productivity, I believe that to be truly productive you need to learn how to be intentionally unproductive. That’s why my 3 part productivity process starts with the power of the pause.

A former queen of clutter, recovering Type A Wall Streeter, and cancer survivor/thriver, I was diagnosed with ADHD later in life. But I always thought I was different.

Now as an ADHD & Productivity Coach, I coach my clients through proven strategies that help them master their time, space and information so they can be more productive, more profitable, and have more time to spend doing the things they love.

I like to think of myself as a bit of a bad*ss. Hey I learned how to surf at age 53. I am happiest on the water - surfing, sailing, kayaking. And I ski to get through the long New England winters. I also enjoy traveling and cooking with my husband and teen daughter. When I'm not on the move (hello ADHD fast brain), you may find me curled up with our cat and a favorite book.

"Working with Catherine has helped get me through the hurdles of not knowing where to start.

Sitting in overwhelm for too long, she gave me a window of time to talk through my priorities and come up with a plan of action.

For me that is just focusing on one week at a time.

I make my list and break it down into what is realistic.

And when I get down on myself if I haven’t done all of it, she helps reel me in and be kind to myself, and remind me to acknowledge all that I really have achieved in just a coupe of months’ time.

It truly was going from fog to focus, and putting processes in place to keep me on track."

- Mandy Hanigan

"As a digital nomad for the past seven years, I had issues with setting up a productive and organized space as I settled down. There was a lot of shame around what other people saw in my office.

Catherine met me where I was, empowered me to own the systems that worked best for me and my lifestyle, and now I feel better about my office. She helped me be better prepared as I travel and much more organized as I come and go from my workspace.

My business has grown as a result of some simple and reasonable changes combined with Catherine's supportive coaching."

- Courtney Biehl

"I was not feeling like myself - stuck in a fugue of grief, unproductive, and feeling overwhelmed by so many decisions.

I needed someone who wasn’t a family member, who could be trusted, to help me determine what really needed to be done and help me break it all down into manageable pieces.

I chose Catherine because we had a common bond. I knew she would understand my life experiences.

Coaching helped me to prioritize the long to-do list and get things done, so that I could come back to life.

Thanks to coaching with Catherine, I organized many of the details, streamlined my business systems, and became much more selective about my clients all while making more money."

- Bonnie Natal

"Catherine helped me focus on what I could improve in building my business and to create and execute a plan to fix what wasn't working for me.

I am now much happier, and my business is growing and is much more efficient.

I am very grateful to her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for focus or efficiency or even for help figuring out what it is you are looking for."

- Carolyn Kalos

"Lack of focus is my big working from home challenge.

It’s the dilly dallying getting my day started, the digital distractions, a bit of procrastination, ... and you end up with a day that is not as productive as it could or should be.

Catherine is so good at creating a non-judgmental environment and giving eye-opening insights, practical tips and useful methods to turn a general feeling of 'I am so bad at...' into tangible improvements and feeling good about my productivity. "

- Tin Geysels

FAQ

What if I need to cancel a coaching call?

We understand that life can sometimes get in the way. We ask that you please give us 24 hours notice prior to canceling. I will do everything in my power to reschedule.

How much time will this require?

With coaching you get out of it what you put into it. At the minimum, we have the weekly hour long coaching call. But most of our clients get great value out of attending the Productivity Power Hour sessions at least once a week to get more done more efficiently.

What is a Productivity Power Hour (PPH)?

Based on the Pomodoro method and recognizing that many of us need accountability to get more done, I created the Productivity Power Hour. We meet at the top of the hour (usually 10am eastern Tuesday-Thursday) and say what project we plan to work on. Then I set a timer for 50 minutes, we mute ourselves, and get to work. When the timer rings, we give each other a virtual high five for our accomplishments or share our struggles. Then we go about the rest of our day knowing we've made forward progress on a goal!

I'm not working now. Is this for me?

We talk a lot about work life balance, so if you're not working this is likely not for you. If you're looking for a new job or considering becoming an entrepreneur we may be able to help.

How does a Coach differ from a Therapist?

Therapy focuses on mental health and emotional healing. Therapists explore the past to help patients reduce their symptoms and make behavioral changes in the future.

Coaches focus on the present and the future to empower you to make your own decisions.

What about confidentiality?

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. Seriously though, I follow the International Coaching Federation’s Code of Ethics, which holds us to the strictest standards of confidentiality. Please find the ICF Code of Ethics form (link to website) here for more details.
