For 25 years, I’ve built and scaled online businesses\u2014managing teams, launching products, driving millions in revenue. I worked twice as hard as everyone else to keep up. I figured everyone struggled like I did.
Then I was diagnosed with ADHD at 47, and autism two years later at 49. Suddenly, years of patterns made sense. The hyperfocus sessions that went 12 hours. The paralyzing overwhelm when too many balls were in the air. The way I’d miss social cues. The creative bursts followed by energy crashes.
Instead of fighting my brain, I redesigned my business around it. And it worked. That’s what I teach now.
