#118 - Accounting Makes ADHD Symptoms Harder to Ignore – Here’s Why
Description
Have you ever sat down to get work done… and somehow, nothing gets done?
Do you start one thing, then bounce to something else, then wonder how an hour disappeared — and not in a good way?
You’re not alone — and you’re definitely not broken.
In this week’s episode of The Smarter Accountant Podcast, I’m talking about something that a lot of accountants deal with but rarely talk about: why the symptoms of ADHD — or something that feels a whole lot like it — can be so much louder in the accounting world.
I’m not here to diagnose anyone. But I am here to help you understand why procrastination, time blindness, overwhelm, forgetfulness, and even emotional burnout are so common among accountants — and what’s actually going on behind the scenes in your brain.
If you’ve ever felt like you “used to be more organized” or wonder, “Why can’t I focus like I used to?” — this episode might shine a light.
This episode is especially for you if:
- You feel like you’re always behind, even when you’re working nonstop
- You’ve secretly wondered if you might have ADHD
- You’re tired of pushing yourself harder and want a better way to get things done
- You’re curious about how coaching — and a tool like The Model — could actually help your brain work with you, not against you
There’s nothing wrong with you. But there might be something wrong with how your work expects your brain to operate.
Listen in and let’s talk about it — because the more you understand, the less personal and stressful it all feels.
