André, The Impulsive Thinker™, reflects on a powerful conversation with Mike Starkey about the tough realities ADHD Entrepreneurs face at the intersection of addiction and ADHD. Addiction often hides ADHD symptoms, and getting sober exposes them, making life challenging before things improve. André unpacks how substance use and other habits like food or social media can mask ADHD traits, and why recovery programs need to address both. This episode gets personal about the ongoing nature of recovery, the importance of real community support, and what it means to truly manage your ADHD brain. Listen in for honest insight and practical questions.
