Hey ADHDers: Your brain didn’t come with an ‘off’ switch for distractions (duh). But it DID come with a unique ability to create workarounds. From body doubling to ‘boring task bribes,’ we’re sharing real strategies for when entrepreneurship feels like wrestling a hyperactive squirrel.

Who Should Listen

  • ADHD business owners who’ve cried over unread emails
  • Solopreneurs whose to-do lists multiply overnight
  • Anyone who’s ever thought “I’ll remember that hilarious social post idea” (you won’t)

What You Get In This Episode

  • Distraction Hacks: Why noise-canceling headphones + brown noise = focus magic
  • Time Blindness Fixes: Pomodoro timers vs. Forest app (and why Caitlin’s phone lives in another room)
  • The Body Double Effect: How Discord groups/TikTok lives trick your brain into productivity
  • Brain Dumps That Don’t Backfire: Why "revise paragraph 1" beats "write landing page"
  • Outsourcing = Survival: When to pay the "ADHD tax" (and what to do if you can’t afford it)

Sneak Peek: Why ‘just call us later’ is like telling a fish to ride a bike…

Bios

Caitlin Kindred: Serial avoider of calling to make appointments, ADHD business owner, and reformed "I’ll just wing it" strategist.

Ariella Monti: Author of Roots & Ink, tiny puzzle addict, and advocate for "outsource anything that makes you want to cry."
