With today’s guest ADHD coach Brooke Schnittman, we are covering all things entrepreneurship with ADHD. As someone who was recently (and honestly, surprisingly) diagnosed with ADHD, this felt like an important topic to bring to the podcast. In this episode we get into everything from time management, accountability, delegation, hiring, goal setting, and planning, all through the lens of ADHD. Whether you have ADHD or not, there is so much to take from this conversation to apply to the way you run your business in the day-to-day and big picture sense.
Brooke Schnittman, MA, PCC, BCC, is an experienced and compassionate ADHD coach who understands firsthand the challenges of living with ADHD. As an adult with a late ADHD diagnosis, Brooke knows what it’s like to feel frustrated, overwhelmed, and ashamed.

Quotes
“If you are fixated on doing the best that you can in something that’s not working, and you give it too much time – I think we just need to know when it’s okay to stop and move on.”
“ADHDers are 35% more likely to become entrepreneurs.”
“Generally, we don’t delegate until we’re over capacity at like 120%. So 70% is really where then you should find someone to delegate to.”
