Take Risks to Be Successful – ADHD, Impulsivity, and the Power of Intuition

from Backpacking Through ADHD · host Tera Greenwood

Impulsivity is one of ADHD’s most misunderstood traits—often mistaken for carelessness or recklessness. But what if impulsivity isn’t a flaw? What if it’s a signal, a strength, even a kind of intuition? In this episode, I unpack the difference between impulsivity and instinct, and explore how risk-taking can be a powerful tool for growth when we understand what’s really driving it. I share insights from my own leadership blindspots, parenting moments, and recent research on ADHD and entrepreneurship. This marks the halfway point in my 52-episode journey, and I’m so grateful you’re here. Let’s talk about trust, timing, and the wild courage it takes to follow your gut—especially when the world calls it a mistake.
