Hi, I'm Jackie

I help neurodivergent entrepreneurs navigate complexity and create lives that honour their unique brains

My superpower? Understanding creative, complex minds and helping you find clarity, direction, and sustainable ways to thrive.

The Official Stuff

I'm Jackie McCullough, founder of We Make Space. I work with neurodivergent entrepreneurs who are brilliant, visionary, and full of ideas, but find themselves navigating overwhelm, burnout, or uncertainty about their path forward. I help you move beyond perfectionism into experimentation, beyond systems into alignment, and beyond productivity into a rhythm that supports your nervous system.

What makes me different? 

I don't just understand neurodivergence – I live it. As an AuDHD entrepreneur (formally diagnosed as dyslexic at 27 & ADHD at 44, on route to an Autism diagnosis at 45), I've navigated the same challenges you're facing.

My Wonky Path & Expertise

My career has been anything but linear:

  • Grew up in a foster family with 15 children – talk about learning to adapt!

  • Mastered program management and Agile frameworks (I'm a die-hard Notion fan and Scrum/Agile enthusiast)

  • Built expertise in Leading Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) and P3O® (Portfolio, Programme, and Project Office)

  • Trained in counselling methodologies (NCFE Level 2&3) and restorative justice

  • Recovered from chronic fatigue and burnout (a journey that taught me the power of slowing down)

This meandering path has given me a unique toolbox that combines structure and creativity, systems thinking and human connection.

The Human Behind the Coach

  • North East England native with a "funny" accent

  • Vegan for 9 years, alcohol-free for 8

  • Lover of good design, beautiful spaces, and charity shop treasures

  • Minimalist who's shed 70% of my belongings

  • INFJ who prefers deep connection over small talk

  • Sensitive soul who loves fiercely (and has a real disdain for noises in public spaces)

What This Means For You

I hold space for your big ideas while helping you navigate the noise to find clarity. Together, we'll:

  • Find direction that aligns with your truest aspirations

  • Develop rhythms and rituals that honour your nervous system

  • Create frameworks for experimentation rather than perfectionism

  • Build understanding of your unique needs and ways of working

  • Test, iterate, and refine approaches that actually work for your brain
