What do you want to achieve in the next year by hiring a coach?

I would like to become more of an adult and learn about doing practical life things, and get assistance on how to go about that. And actively do that with the guidance and management or accountability or support of someone who is knowledgeable on how stuff works. I would like to get my admin in check, my health, understand the financial planning I can do and start enacting that, figure out how best to look after my elderly father in terms of planning for his care, executing his care. I don't know if this is what a Life Coach can assist me with, but I almost need some sort of personal manager and assistant, or someone I can trust with helping me make choices, and someone that knows the steps that need to be taken for me to get that stuff done - practically - in a South African setting and can guide me through it, almost step by step.

Tell us about yourself.

I have ADHD and really struggle with putting things into action, as I over theorize and research things I need to do, and get stuck on the executive functioning. I need help to function... I have intellectual and cognitive understanding and direction, I have a decent understanding of myself and all that. But I need execution assistance, and knowledge on financial and administrative life and practical life things. I did not necessarily get this from a parent and I do not know where to start but I feel like my life is not in order, and that stress is getting to me. My job is very demanding, I then also look after my dad, and am exhausted the rest of the time and find I just never get to things. I am often just scared that something happens and I don't have things in order that I'd need in order to cope and handle things for myself and my dad the best. For example, I know I need this plan - but I can't bring myself to get it all in order: but I need a plan for if my dad has an emergency. I need a file with all that stuff in place but I don't know where to start, struggle when having to make phone calls or get admin in order with medical insurances and can't enact what I need to get that in order. I also don't know if I have put him on the best health insurance, and I'd like to be able to talk that through with someone who can advice and guide me. I don't know if that is a role that even exists, but I really would appreciate assistance in finding something close to that.
