I didn’t find out I had AHDH until 2023 at the age of 38! Suddenly so much more of my life makes sense. In this episode I talk about finding ways to laugh at and celebrate my brain for its unique quirks and I get into the concept of time blocking.

This technique has been uber helpful to keep me away from focusing on one thing at all costs — to the detriment of everything else in my life and businesses. Even moreso, the simple habit of leaving myself detailed notes on exactly where to resume next time ensures that I’m setting myself up for success day in and day out.
