Balancing Act: Navigating ADHD for Entrepreneurial Achievement

Lobow's SPARK

Are you on the entrepreneurial journey and struggle with mental health issues like ADHD? Imagine a space where you could embrace your highs and lows, explore the power of self-care and own your unique productivity rhythm. That's exactly what we promise in our candid chat about mental health and productivity in the life of an entrepreneur. We share our personal experiences, discuss the ups and downs, and delve into our struggles with ADHD. By the end of our conversation, you'll understand the significance of faith in our progress, regardless of its pace.
What's the secret sauce to maximizing productivity? How about balancing tasks we love with those we find necessary, and igniting momentum by accomplishing tasks we are passionate about first? We shed light on this balancing act and our journey to honor our optimal operating hours. We also bring up the importance of flexibility in scheduling mental health check-ins and our thoughts on burnout. Plus, we have a heart-to-heart with a close friend about balancing ADHD and autism while being a parent.
We dive into the power of professional mindset and rule-based decision making. Listen to us talk about the need to anticipate future trends, the power of automation, and the importance of being selective to avoid tough situations. We wrap up with a reflection on our personal growth, the progress made so far, and the value of imperfection. So come join us as we navigate the world of entrepreneurship and mental health.
