Get Started

The strengths and challenges of neurodiversity

Do you or your team have ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), dyslexia, dyspraxia, or an autism spectrum condition and want to learn more about what it means to you?

Or are you beginning to explore why your experiences feel aligned with these words?

‍You're not alone and you've come to the right place.

Many talented equestrian professionals have spent years wondering why some parts of everyday life seem so much easier, whilst other aspects feel harder than they should.

For others the realisation may come more suddenly at times of vulnerability or significant life stages, such as a change of environment, navigating particular relationships, balancing family responsibilities, experiencing PMDD or menopause.

Overthinking conversations? feeling overwhelmed by some environments whilst underwhelmed in others? struggling to get going or to switch off, or to settle and regulate?

Thriving under pressure but burn out afterwards? Working harder than everyone else? Always looking for the next thing to keep the highs coming and the lows less low?

Who We Are

Francesca Ritchie | Co-Founder & Principal Coach


Growing up around horses combined with deep personal and professional experience with neurodiversity, gave Francesca a firsthand understanding of the unique pressures found in careers with horses.

Francesca worked as a teacher in mainstream education both in equine and as neurodiversity specialist for many years, and has studied at post graduate level in education, psychology and sport horse health and welfare.

She founded TIGERmind to bridge the gap between valuable research and the people who need it most. She aims to make this knowledge accessible, practical, supportive, and human—helping individuals feel truly understood, capable, and empowered to live and work sustainably.
