The Neuro-Spicy Academy
You Don’t Need to Change Who You Are to Succeed in Business
The Neuro-Spicy Academy is a Business School Built for Brains Like Yours. It's where ADHD, autistic, and otherwise brilliantly-wired entrepreneurs learn to build aligned, scalable businesses — without the burnout, fluff, or shame.
Enrollment for the next cohort closes May 22, 2025. Don’t miss your chance to join.
You Belong Here If You Are...
A visionary with too many ideas and not enough structure
Feeling stuck in feast-and-famine cycles (or stuck before you even start)
Tired of advice that doesn’t fit your brain, your goals, or your life
Craving real support — without being micromanaged or shamed
Ready to stop burning out and start building something sustainable
This is your invitation to stop going it alone — and start building something that works for you.
And You Want a School That...
Doesn't expect you to binge a bunch of courses without taking action
Never leaves you guessing what to do next
Doesn't expect you to mask and “look like a real business owner.”
Has bite-sized lessons that are easy to follow
Adds visual tools and checklists
Teaches live sessions with real neuro-spicy mentors that give real, honest feedback
Provides step-by-step support at each stage
Your brain doesn’t need more information. It needs transformation designed for how you think.
Why It Works (When Other Programs Haven’t)
Most business programs expect you to change how your brain works.
We built ours around how your brain already works best.
You’re not expected to “catch up” or push through burnout
You’ll follow a flexible roadmap instead of guessing what to do next
You’ll actually get support— not just more info
We’ll help you grow a business that feels good — and actually works.
"So glad I made this investment in myself."
I was astonished and delighted to find Melanie (a purple and pink-haired, tattooed, potty-mouthed, neuro-divergent entrepreneur who is walking the walk while talking the talk!!).
How did I get so lucky? Our time together has helped me redesign my approach to work so that it actually works for me and my beautiful, buzzy brain! I work less, schedule the right things at the right times, and get more accomplished.
Melanie offered a ton of deceptively simple and highly impactful tools, tips, and techniques to add back joy and fun to running a business, while also reducing self-doubt and spin-outs. It's clear that Melanie really listens, really cares, and really shows up during coaching sessions. She makes making changes feel doable and helps you celebrate those changes along the way.

What we just witnessed was freakin' amazing. It was inspiring! This is why we watch sports, because it's fun to watch a person at the pinnacle of something. It's fun to watch someone who's sculpted themselves into a paragon of excellence. What you just did — it felt like magic. That was awesome.

"My Brain Gets It!"
I’m working on the Content Ecosystem Map we were talking about last night… it is SO much better for me to see it this way… at least right now.
I’m working with ChatGPT and it is actually fun work and gets me excited.
Thanks so much for this… my brain gets it!!!!

"I was able to say it with confidence!"
I was a little nervous yesterday, but right out of the gate she asked what it is I do. Having had to practice this statement with you was more beneficial than I could have imagined.
I was able to say it with confidence and elaborate easily.
So, thank you!

I really love the way that Christina teaches her information. She is a no-fluff type of teacher.
She gets right to the juicy stuff. I really enjoyed the trainings and got a lot of out of them and was able to implement them immediately.

"The most insightful, inspiring, and eye opening call I can recall ever having"
Christina, thank you so much for spending all that time with me on the call today! It was the most insightful, inspiring, and eye opening call I can recall ever having. I have already started working on my homework assignment by reaching out to a couple of my contacts in my network that own SaaS businesses. Hopefully they will say yes!
I am so ready to follow the path you laid out for me and thanks to you, I am confident that I can be successful under your tutelege.
I also signed up for your free academy course and am fired up to get moving on that too! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Frequently asked questions
🤔 Still Got Questions?
No worries! We've got answers...
Do I have to be diagnosed with ADHD or autism to join?
Nope. Many of our students identify as neurodivergent but don’t have a formal diagnosis or are self-diagnosed.
If traditional business advice hasn’t worked for you — and you want something that actually fits your brain — you’re welcome here.
What is The Neuro-Spicy Academy?
It’s a business school built for ADHD and autistic entrepreneurs who want to grow a sustainable business that fits their brain, energy, and goals — without burnout.
Is this a course or a membership?
It’s both — kind of. You get access to a structured curriculum (The Yellow Brick Road), live calls, mentor support, bonus trainings, and a private community. It’s an ongoing program designed to support your growth at every stage.
How is this different from other business programs?
Most programs are built by entrepreneurs that teach what worked for them. We teach a flexible, stage-based system that helps you design a business that works for you... tailored to your life, your goals, your brain, and the people you want to work with.
You won’t just learn. You’ll actually build — with real support from mentors who are in the trenches too.
Can I join anytime?
Nope — we enroll in small classes so every student gets the support they need. When enrollment opens, you’ll have the chance to join the current class or hop on the waitlist for the next one. Keeping class sizes small helps ensure that you get all the attention and support you need from our expert mentors.
What if I'm not ready to join yet?
That’s okay! You can join the waitlist or follow us for updates, free trainings, and new resources in the Toolbox.
