Description

If you’ve ever worried that ADHD—or any difference—might hurt your credibility, this episode is for you. I’ve learned that the traits that make me different are the very ones that make my brand magnetic.

Yes, there are days when it feels like I have 15 tabs open in my brain and someone keeps hitting refresh. But over time, I’ve realized that while ADHD can sometimes show up as scattered, distracted, or inconsistent, it also comes with incredible strengths. Creativity, energy, hyper-focus, and the ability to connect dots others don’t always see are all part of my personal brand. ADHD isn’t something I suffer from—it’s part of who I am.

In this episode of Branding Room Only, I share how I reframed ADHD as a superpower, built the systems I needed, and turned it into a core part of my personal brand. I’ll walk you through the strategies and tools I rely on—from support networks to checklists and workflows—and introduce my ADHD framework: Awareness, Discipline, Honesty, and Distinction. It’s a practical guide to using difference as a source of strength.

Whether you live with ADHD, love someone who does, or simply want to better understand how neurodiversity can shape a personal brand, you’ll leave this episode with strategies to reframe challenges, amplify what sets you apart, and own your brand authentically.
