Episode 161: Navigating ADHD Entrepreneurship with Clarity and Purpose [featuring Corey Wilks)

In this episode, I talked with Dr. Corey Wilks, a licensed clinical psychologist and executive coach, about aligning life achievements with personal values and some of the unique challenges neurodivergent entrepreneurs face, particularly those with ADHD.3 Key Takeaways:Align with Your Core Values: Corey emphasizes the importance of ensuring your life's work and business are aligned with your core values. This approach reduces regret and fosters genuine fulfillment. Remember the Stoic concept of "Memento Mori" – using the awareness of life's finitude to inspire living fully.Turn Someday into Today: Instead of procrastinating and waiting for the "right time," start acting on your aspirations now. We discussed the necessity of transforming "someday" goals into actions, integrating values-aligned decisions into both life and work.Leverage Procrastination Positively: Don't let perfectionism or analysis paralysis stop you. Reframe procrastination as a strength to generate pressure and meet deadlines efficiently. Use strategies like preselling to validate ideas and create accountability, ensuring you're working on projects with real market interest.More about Corey:Dr. Corey Wilks is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Executive Coach who helps the top entrepreneurs in the world clarify what matters, overcome limiting beliefs, and build a values-aligned life and business.
