An Operating System For ADHD Founders
šŸ’œ HERE IT IS... the first, and only productivity system built for ADHD entrepreneurs who are sick of starting strong, stalling out, and being the bottleneck in their own business. I’ve been a misfit my whole life.. Really F*kn smart 🧠 but scattered & always struggled in school settings. Big ass dreams with half-finished starts. ā€œSimpleā€ tasks felt heavy... I’d sit at a desk, freeze, and then beat myself up for not being who the world said I "should be". I was haunted by a history of big visions followed by scattered days & the empty "productivity journals" that sit on my shelf as monuments to my failures... But the villains here was never willpower; they were: 🧩 Decision fog at the start of each day šŸ”€ Momentum shredded by task switching šŸ”‹ Energy crashes right when it mattered most ā™¾ļø Perfection loops that prevented progress 🤐 And a shame that keeps you building in silence In 2019, I decided to stop listening to the "Normies" who had never understood me, and I stopped forcing these neurotypical standard Operating Systems on a brain that was wired for more. I began studying psychology & neuroscience to gain a deeper understanding of my unique wiring, and began to rebuild how I work around what's real for me & my dopamine starved brain! šŸ§Ÿā€ā™‚ļø I began: Protecting & planning around my energy šŸ”‹ Killing friction points fast āœ‚ļø Shipping small wins that stack šŸ“¦āž”ļø Doing it with a tribe that never asks or requires me to mask or hide šŸ‘„šŸ”„ This system is my dedication to the founders like me, who felt ā€œdifferent,ā€ stared down ā€œsimple,ā€ and knew they were meant for more. You’re not broken—you were handed the wrong map! šŸ—ŗ 🚨 AF: Founders OS - Coming Soon! Embrace your strengths & build a business that works with your brain, not against it. 🟢 Reach out to me today if you would like to treat this system in your own life! We need testers, you need productivity.. it's a Win-Win! Let's support one another to grow šŸ’Ŗ

We need your input 🫵
We need your help! 🫵 This community is currently like a jet being built in the factory, and you are the early days engineers who are helping to design it! As our team of architects & builders work behind the scenes every day of the week (Sundays included), compiling all the intricate pieces that are needed to get this thing off the ground and accelerating to mach-9, we need you to tell us what to build first! So, this is for you, the early-days founders of this community, the engineers who get to trek us what to build first: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ATTACK FIRST?

Creating a Meaningful Culture
Here’s the 3 post-it-note motto I drill into my kids (and my teams) every single day: Today my crew of little humans headed back to school, and as always, I sent them out with the same three reminders that shape everything we do—at home and in business: 1ļøāƒ£ Be kind. 2ļøāƒ£ Be helpful. 3ļøāƒ£ Have fun. 🫶 Kindness first—because how you treat people is everything. šŸ¤ Helpfulness—because we rise by lifting others. šŸ™Œ Fun—because joy belongs in every room, not just as a reward when the work’s ā€œdone.ā€ This isn’t just parenting—it’s the real backbone of great teams and lasting company culture. What do you want to see show up in your people, your company, your family? šŸ’¬ Drop your family or company’s core values below—let’s build a wall of wisdom together.

Creating a Meaningful Culture
Hot Take: Never aim to be the smartest person in the room!
I grew up being told, ā€œIf you work hard and put your mind to it, you can do anything.ā€ Looking back, I realize that’s the kind of advice meant to keep us grinding in the system—a cog in the capitalist machine, feeding the tax base and someone else’s bottom line. After decades of costly mistakes, psychological growth, mentorship, coaching, building businesses, and networking, here’s what I’ve learned: My biggest breakthroughs have never come from just ā€œworking hard & putting my mind to it.ā€ They’ve come directly from the rooms I put myself in and the people I surrounded myself with. Their insights, their unique knowledge and way of looking at things have helped me grow & become more knowledgeable & more profitable in life & in business! Here’s my real lesson: Your environment is everything. The right community doesn’t just give you answers—it challenges your thinking, supports your growth, and expands what you believe is possible. What rooms are you putting yourself in? Who’s challenging you to level up?
Hot Take: Never aim to be the smartest person in the room!
