I have no doubt that many marketers have trouble keeping things organized, disciplined, and yet very creative.

This is why I invited Jenna Redfield, Notion Ambassador, Video editor, and YouTuber, who talks about managing ADHD on her channel and gives her audience practical advice on staying on top of their tasks and still taking care of themselves.

I personally feel close to this episode because I belive that we must care for our mental health to achieve more and become our best selves.
