Star filled black icon

5.0

(1)

We celebrate ADHD entrepreneur success and discuss challenges and solutions. Having lived with undiagnosed ADHD for a large part of his entrepreneurial journey, the host André Brisson will share his personal stories on how he overcame his undiagnosed symptoms and how he refined his systems, routines and habits once diagnosed with self-awareness and personal growth. André will interview high-achieving ADHD entrepreneurs, ADHD experts, and strength discovery experts covering many topics including their own obstacles and successes, strategies to manage their ADHD, share knowledge to gain insights and more. André will also be interviewed by guest hosts to pull out solutions and information from his brain – since his solutions are impulsive thoughts when talking to someone else. André Brisson was diagnosed at 44 with severe ADHD and Asperger’s. He has lived it, researched it, and transformed himself into a higher-functioning ADHD entrepreneur.

This podcast only came to a reality because I did this project differently. This podcast almost came to the usual ADHD demise of being dropped because of our negative self-talk and rumination. This time I reached out to people to discuss the project and they became my accountability partners and cheerleaders. Who keeps you accountable? Who cheers you on?

Scared To Hit Record

The Impulsive Thinker

play

10/21/21 • 6 min

André discusses how difficult it was to hit the record button to record his FIRST short episode during the development of The Impulsive Thinker Podcast. Procrastination and various fears delayed me from hitting record and start to help others. Constant internal talk about leaving it along and being my own worst critic. It’s amazing how our ADHD self-confidence is affected to start projects that are important to us. Once you hit start! It always gets easy after that, but our ADHD brain makes us hesitate.

What are you afraid to start? Or afraid to hit record? Let me know! Send me an email.

Where To Start?

The Impulsive Thinker

play

11/04/21 • 7 min

When we don’t plan, we have a hard time starting a project or tasks. We rarely start at the beginning – usually in the middle and all over the place – and this usually ends with getting little accomplished. Distractions are hard to ignore. I explain how I sat down and planned the day with a task list and prioritizing the tasks and work on one only and in the order I chose. This provided me to hyperfocus quicker and get tasks done – even though there was no possible way to complete the whole list!!!!
