About The POWER Framework™

The POWER Framework™ was built to answer one core question:Why can daily life feel so damn exhausting, even when you are trying your hardest?Over years of working almost exclusively with neurodivergent clients, I started noticing the same patterns show up again and again.Not personality flaws. Not motivation problems. Not a lack of effort.Patterns.Certain areas of life were quietly (or sometimes loudly) draining their mental and physical energy. Others were holding things together more than people realized. And when we stopped guessing and started paying attention to those patterns, everything got easier to work with.

The Five POWER Zones

The POWER Framework™ focuses on five core zones that shape how manageable or overwhelming daily life feels for neurodivergent people:▸ Prioritization
How decisions get made and what actually gets your attention▸ Organization
How systems support you or slowly steal your soul▸ Wellness
How nutrition, rest, movement, and sleep affect your bandwidth▸ Emotional Regulation
How emotions move through your day instead of hijacking it▸ Reframing Beliefs
The stories you carry about yourself that run the showThese zones are always operating - even when you are not thinking about them. Especially then.When one zone is under strain, the others feel it. When one zone is supported, the others get a boost as well.

Why These Zones Matter

When these areas are ignored, life feels heavy.Decisions take forever.
Emotions spike fast.
You second-guess yourself constantly.
Everything feels harder than it should.When these zones are given intentional attention, things start to feel lighter.Decisions use less energy.
Emotions settle faster.
You trust yourself more.
Progress replaces mental whiplash.Not because you became a different person, but because the system around you finally clicks.

The Science Behind It

The POWER Framework™ is grounded in research, not purely vibes.It is not another personality assessmentIt draws heavily from Dr. Russell Barkley’s research on executive functioning (including the BDEFS scale), alongside core principles from positive psychology researchers such as Dr. Martin Seligman and Dr. Caroline Leaf, and the teachings and research of Dr. Megan Anna Neff on neurodivergent burnout.Together, these foundations help identify:▸ Where mental energy is leaking
▸ Which habits and environments are creating friction
▸ Which patterns deserve support firstInstead of trying to fix everything at once, the framework helps you work smarter and kinder with your capacity.

The POWER Assessment™

To bring the framework to life, I created The POWER Assessment™.The assessment gives you two scores for each POWER zone:Zap scores show where habits, environments, or beliefs may be draining your energy or creating friction.Zest scores highlight where things already feel supportive, aligned, or easier to sustain.This matters because you do not start from zero. Ever.The assessment helps you see:▸ Where support would create the most relief
▸ What is already working in your favor
▸ Where starting will actually make a differenceNo guessing. No fixing the wrong thing first. No treating exhaustion like a character flaw.

Connected By Design

Here’s one of the coolest parts.The POWER zones are deeply interconnected.When you increase Zest in one zone, it tends to reduce Zap in others.Support your beliefs and emotions regulate faster.
Support wellness and organization stops feeling impossible.
Support prioritization and decision fatigue eases across the board.It is less like juggling five separate balls and more like adjusting one gear that helps the whole machine run smoother.

Why I Built This

I built the POWER Framework™ because I was tired of watching capable, caring, intelligent neurodivergent humans blame themselves for systems that never fit them.I needed it for myself.
My clients needed it even more.This framework gives language to lived experience, structure to self-understanding, and direction to change that does not require burning yourself out in the process.That’s the goal.Less fighting your brain.
More supporting it.
More zest.
Way less zap.If you are ready to see how this shows up in your own life, the POWER Assessment™ is the best place to start.Your brain will thank you.

Real words from real humans below.

When you are looking for a coach, experience is better than book knowledge.However, when you combine both lived experiences and the science and knowledge behind those learnings, you have a dynamic coach that doesn’t tell you what to do but calls out your own knowledge and ability to see yourself better and not by giving the answers but by walking alongside you through the learning.Clay has experienced what he coaches and knows firsthand what those struggles can be. He has helped me realize things in me that can be better and others that I didn’t know I even had.- Robert H. | President, Home Port Collective

Clay has a remarkable ability to truly see his clients—not just their goals and challenges but their whole selves. His intuitive understanding of people on a profoundly human level sets him apart in the field.He approaches his sessions with compassion, attentiveness, and genuine curiosity. He creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where I felt heard, understood, and empowered to explore my path with clarity and confidence.What stands out most about Clay is his passion for helping others become the best versions of themselves. His commitment to their success goes beyond the typical coaching relationship, making him not just a coach but a true partner in their journey.If you’re looking for a life coach who combines keen insight, unwavering dedication, and a deeply human touch, Clay is the person you want by your side. I cannot recommend him highly enough.*- Kasey P. | ICF-Certified Coach

Being coached by Clay was so refreshing—like a drink of cool water at the end of a long HIIT workout.In my case, the HIIT workout was “trying to make progress on business tasks and practical challenges within my rabbit warren of an ADHD brain” and the drink of water was Clay walking me through how to use my own reward-based programming strategically instead of trying to fight against it.I went into the session feeling rather defeated about my lack of progress, and I came out of the session able to clearly see what steps to take next AND feeling excited about doing them.Total game changer!I've worked with other coaches before—great coaches who have helped me in a lot of ways—but this was different.It was like finally being able to have a conversation with someone who speaks my language after a lifetime of trying to translate every word I hear or say.- Kali J. | Certified Boundaries Coach

Clay was giving away some coaching and I jumped at the opportunity.One of the most powerful conversations I've had in a while. It's amazing what even an hour can do.Great insights and takeaways. Excited for my continued growth and belief in myself.If you're looking for a stellar coach, definitely connect with Clay!- Dan L. | Sales Manager

I think this is more what I had expected my executive functioning coach to help me with, and she's five hundred dollars an hour.She never came close, in six months, to giving me the insight [Clay] gave me in thirty minutes.The type of insight [Clay] provided was like...I've never felt so seen and understood. And I have been going to therapy for the last five years consistently.I've had parent coaching. I've had executive functioning coaching. [Clay was] so precise based on the results of the assessment on what exactly is going on.I could see in real time, as I was watching the video, the power of the recommendations that [Clay was] making.And I could already start to see how those would be massive unlocks.- Andrea W. | Parenting Coach
