This week I'm sharing more about my experience being neurodivergent with ADHD.

With undiagnosed ADHD, it was a struggle for me to fit into the traditional 9-5 structure! And most neurodivergent folks often have problems with authority figures and working for other people (hi, it's me!), so a corporate day job ain't in the cards!

Today I'm sharing how I've started and grown my business while being undiagnosed, some strategies I tried that didn't work so great, and what I'm doing now as I'm working towards achieving my goals of building a million-dollar a year business, writing a book, and creating courses and big events that give massive value for my audience.

It's not always easy and every day looks a little different! Tune in as I share the productivity hacks I've tried and what's actually working for me. I hope this episode helps you get creative and find what works for you!

It can be stressful reading about economic uncertainty and the tendency for businesses to fail during a recession, but that doesn't mean that you have to pack it up and look for something else. In this episode, I'm sharing strategies for recession-proofing your business.

Instead of focusing on fear and uncertainty, we're doing some reframing of thoughts and introducing some strategies around the ways you can operate your business to maintain sustainability.

Tune in for…

• How people make decisions in economic downturns
• What to address with your offers to help them decide
• What folks are still buying and how you can pivot your services

How to connect with Laura:

Laura's secret superpower is seeing your greatness and reflecting it back on you, so that you can get "unstuck" — and achieve extraordinary results.

A frequent contributor to Good Morning America, the TODAY Show, Harvard Business Review, and Oprah Daily, Laura's 30-year resume is defined by her entrepreneurial edge. She served as a Presidential Appointee in Bill Clinton's White House, helping shape AmeriCorps; left a leadership role at respected national search firm to expand a tech start-up; and founded, ran, and sold her own global search firm, partnering with the full gamut of mission driven corporate and nonprofit executives.

Laura is turned on by the audacity of The Big Idea and that larger-than-life goal you just can't seem to shake. She's an instigator, motivator, and provocateur, and she's never met a revolution she didn't like. Just ask her enduringly patient husband, two almost-grown sons, and two troublesome pups with whom she lives outside of Boston, MA.

Consider this episode a call to action for you to shed the patriarchal programming that tells you that you are not enough and start showing up confidently in your businesses. It is only by believing in yourself and your offer that you can build audience trust and sell effectively.
