About the Author

Lily Beacham is a former teacher and interior designer with a passion for helping people with ADHD create calmer, more manageable lives. Throughout her teaching career, she worked closely with many children and families affected by ADHD, supporting students, parents, and carers as they navigated learning, organization, and the emotional challenges that often come with neurodivergence.

Alongside her professional work, Lily has also supported family members with ADHD, giving her a deep understanding of how the condition affects everyday life—not just in classrooms, but at home, in relationships, at work, and in the small, often unseen moments that can feel overwhelming.

Through these combined experiences, Lily saw firsthand how many people with ADHD struggle—not because they are failing, but because they are missing practical, ADHD-friendly systems that work with their brains rather than against them. This insight inspired her to create simple, realistic strategies that reduce stress, build confidence, and make everyday life more manageable.

Drawing on her background in education, interior design, and home organization, Lily developed practical systems for tasks such as cleaning, decluttering, organization, and productivity. As the ADHD Solution Deck series has grown, she has expanded her practical approach to include children's ADHD, health and wellbeing, relationships, and everyday life skills, offering practical support across many aspects of living with ADHD. She is currently completing her ADHD coach certification, further strengthening her ability to support individuals and families navigating life with ADHD.

Lily lives in Port Stephens, a beautiful beachside community in New South Wales, Australia, with her pets—two cats, Felix and Ruby, and a cheeky dog named Lily. Yes, they share a name (it's a long story you can read below), along with a mutual love of the beach and biscuits.

When she's not writing or creating resources, Lily enjoys coastal walks, spending time in nature, and making memories with family and friends. Above all, she's passionate about helping people with ADHD feel understood, capable, and empowered to build a life that works for them.

Meet My Team

My team is made up of my pets. They are cute and cheap. I just have to pay them in cuddles and treats. Let me introduce you to them.

Personal Assistant Extraordinaire!

Ruby is my personal assistant, although if she could talk, she would tell you that she is the BOSS! She loves my computer chair, and it's a competition between us, to see who gets the chair first. She loves curling up next to me while I work, and by the look of this photo, she's learning how to operate the coffee machine!

In Charge of Computer Breaks

Lily and I share a name and a love of the outdoors. She was rescued as a puppy and already had a name. I decided not to change it so as not to confuse her. Lily knows the importance of computer breaks. If she thinks I've been sitting at the computer too long, she will tell me in no uncertain terms that I need to get up out of the chair and come and play with her. She loves any game that involves running, chasing, and catching a ball or frisbee.

Avoids work, prefers to eat.

Meet my sweet, gentle, tuxedo boy. Felix likes to lie on the computer keyboard or walk all over it, causing strange things to happen on the screen. If you ever find typos in my newsletters or books, it's probably Felix's contribution. He loves his food and believes that by lying on top of the desk, I will notice how cute he is and give him a treat!

Team member, Ruby, my personal assistant, suggests you join my newsletter. I usually only email once a month, unless I have something exciting to tell you. You will receive news, information, tips and support, as well as notifications about my new books and free resources.
