Meet Sarah Kesty - Your Brain-Friendly, Life-Hacking Coach!

I love what I do. Executive function is my passion and purpose. I’ve seen it transform lives, and I’m on a mission to make that level of support and change available to students, adults, and families everywhere!

When I discovered that most of my students were struggling because they were lacking skills not intelligence, I began to innovate lessons and coaching sessions to fill the executive function gaps and catch kids up! After years of hearing from colleagues and parents that these strategies had profound positive impacts, I wondered how I could share these ideas and help even more students! Through my podcast, courses, and coaching, I now help students, parents, educators, and therapists who are struggling with invisible missing skills.

I’m honored to write, present, and coach around the world, to a variety of audiences. My forthcoming book will help teachers support executive function development in students. When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking, gardening, cooking, or enveloping myself in my wonderful family and friends.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I wasn’t sure about coaching at first. I’ve tried a few online videos and so many planners. I didn’t want this to be one more thing that didn’t actually help. I’m SO glad I met Sarah. She taught me how to actually work with my brain and so many tools that made school a lot easier. I’m passing my classes now, and the best part is I don’t feel like I’m drowning anymore.

S. Martinez (college student, 2023)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I watched 3 videos in the Quick Tools Vault and realized that this was the best thing I’ve tried. High school was stupid hard for me, even though I’m “smart.” (I never felt smart). I nearly failed every class because of missing work and deadlines. Sarah didn’t shame me for it. She actually explained what was happening and what I could do to get work in on time. It worked. Also, when I had trouble with my roommates, I actually learned how to problem solve with them too. I feel like this program helped me learn how to adult without talking down to me. Thank you.

Lilah T. (high school student, 2024)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love having the videos between coaching sessions. I can remind myself of the tools and get help any time I need it. When I coach with Sarah, I always end up feeling so much relief. We make a plan and strategies that really work!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Sarah is truly gifted! Our school-aged daughter struggles with ADHD and dyslexia. Not only has Sarah helped us advocate for her in the academic world, she has also been an invaluable emotional resource for our entire family as we all navigate the ups and downs of having a neurodivergent child. She goes beyond simply coaching and is truly an ally.

Lauren Drake

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Sarah Kesty is quite simply a gifted executive functioning coach. There are so many well meaning (but ineffective) people offering this type of support. Look no further! Sarah's deep knowledge and enthusiasm allow her to quickly connect and build trust with her students. The improvements she is able to make in a relatively short time are noticeable and impactful. She helped my daughter excel in the full IB diploma and make a seamless transition to a rigorous college environment. I have no doubt my child's path would have been much rockier and more stressful without Sarah's expert guidance and support. She gives teens the critical tools they need to manage their academic and social lives in a judgement free, supportive way. Highly recommend!

Rose St. Fleur

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

When you are living with ADHD, it’s hard to explain the shame and judgement from the outside world that comes with it. I felt like Ms. Kesty was one of very few who really helped the kids and me to really understand ADHD objectively, without blame. She taught about the condition from an executive functioning standpoint. Once we had Ms. Kesty on board, the kids and I began to learn and understand so much about ADHD. My kids’ confidence grew and they have learned how to accept and embrace themselves as humans; they have abandoned the negative thinking of “but I have ADHD so I can’t” and now have learned how to navigate alongside it instead of fighting it. Ms. Kesty helped make my kids feel SEEN and UNDERSTOOD. Now, my kids believe in themselves, and this matters so much when you are living with ADHD, and Ms. Kesty gets that. She’s amazing.

You world is about to change in big ways.

On the next screen you'll set your password.

As soon as you register you’ll get access to the program overview, the quick tools vault, a special message from Sarah Kesty, and access to Module 1 so you can get started!

** If you'd like your parent(s) to register and pay for the program instead, please send them to Life After High School Family Introduction. Once they register, you'll get an invite to the program by email.

The course is designed to be completed in 21 weeks, with 3 weeks of “buffer time” to catch up, review, or go deeper by using coach support to apply your favorite new tools. You will have access to the course materials for 6 months. At the end, you will have an option to extend your learning and coaching, if you would like.

It is normal to be worried that an online program may feel boring after a while. We built the program with this concern in mind, using student feedback and a deep understanding of the brain. 

We’ve gamified participation, allowing you to earn and redeem rewards along the way. We’ve made the videos short, uplifting, and easy to apply right away. And, the coaching? It’s the secret sauce! You will love time with Sarah and the program coaches, feeling heard, understood, and deeply cared for.

Sarah is an ADHD and autism expert, and Life After High School is a 2024 CHADD (Children and Adults with ADHD) Innovative Program. A former member of CAPTAIN (a California state autism education expert group), Sarah designed Life After High School to honor and give tools for every brain. Neurodivergent brains thrive with Sarah’s approach! 

Life After High School is based in brain science, research on academic strategies, pragmatic and social communication tools, and real-world strategies from Sarah’s 20 years in education and from 2000 students in the classroom and in coaching. The tools work. They have transformed the lives of hundreds of teens and young adults. It’s your time to shine!

Weekly coaching is designed to support you at any point in the program. There is no need to worry if you are unable to watch the videos one week or need to miss a coaching session. Our program is designed with real life in mind! The last three weeks of Life After High School offer you a chance to catch up, review, or go deeper with your learning, as no new required videos will be added at that time. 

 It might take you a while to warm up to coaching in a group. That’s ok. Attending coaching without asking for individual support is still powerful; you will be able to hear from others with similar problems and watch them find solutions with expert coaching! Group coaching will offer different methods of engagement and participation, so you will not be left out if you’re not yet ready to ask for individual coaching at first. There is space for everyone, and we honor that you may need time to acclimate to group coaching. 

Having executive function struggles can be isolating and lonely. Whether you’ve voiced it or not, you have probably wondered why you have challenges and maybe compare yourself to others. Having a safe group to come to is an incredible gift. You’ll realize quickly that you are not alone, your struggles are both real and solvable, and the group has your back. Many students are able to form connections that extend outside of coaching, many building into real-life friendships! 

Life After High School helps with anything you do, including college, trade or tech school, or work. We will learn some "academic" hacks, like how to read efficiently, manage projects, and write easily...but these skills help in every situation! Everyone is welcome to join us!

In addition to the weekly video lessons and resources, we offer weekly group coaching sessions, access to a private community, and direct support from Sarah Kesty.

As mentioned above, it is normal for students to take a while to get into a new routine. The course is designed with teen (and neurodivergent) brains in mind; it is engaging, supportive, and flexible, offering many ways to learn and grow. The program will offer strategies and support to set up systems, routines, and accountability from the start, so you complete (and love) the learning and coaching program. Built-in gamification allows you to earn rewards for participation and coaching builds a unique connection and accountability for you.
