Show Notes:

 

Different people experience ADHD differently.

 

Nearly half of Strategic Coach members have ADHD.

 

ADHD provides a unique perspective on complex situations.

 

It’s unrealistic to be good at everything (and a waste of energy to try).

 

It might be that no matter how hard you try, you’ll never be successful at certain activities. (And that’s okay.)

 

Once you understand your ADHD, a world of possibilities opens up to you.

 

If you feel like a failure, it might simply mean you're engaging in activities your brain isn't wired for.

 

It’s not enough to know something. You have to share it.

 

When everyone’s on the same page, everyone has a better experience.

 

For some people with ADHD, it can be a struggle to do things that other people find easy.

 

Adults with ADHD are 60% more likely to be fired.

 

Once you know you have ADHD, you can stop spending energy masking it and start embracing your uniqueness.

 

You create more opportunities when you empower yourself.
