Externalizing accountability is the "beating heart" of productivity for the ADHD brain.

Dave sits down with Russ Jones, founder of "ADHD Big Brother" to dismantle the stigma surrounding accountability. They explore why "internalized" accountability often fails those with ADHD and how shifting to external structures can turn "not now" into "done."

Russ explains the mechanics of "felt accountability" and introduces the game-changing concept of body doubling for busy professionals with ADHD.

Dave and Russ talk about:

Felt Accountability: Moving from internal promises which ADHD brains can struggle with, to external visibility that creates healthy pressure.
The Power of Body Doubling: How working in the presence of others, even virtually, adds a "teaspoon of extra focus" to boring or daunting tasks.
Nagging vs. Support: Understanding that true accountability is an opt-in partnership, whereas nagging is unsolicited and often ineffective.
The "Car Pulls Left" Analogy: Why consistent check-ins are necessary to keep the ADHD brain from drifting off course.
Externalizing the Day: Using "true" calendars and physical notifications to prevent tasks from becoming "part of the furniture."
The Task Audit: Identifying "leaks" in your process, from capturing ideas to handling the "inner tantrum" when it's time to start.
