In this episode of Refined Leadership: ADHD Edition, I’m sharing the story of two career-defining decisions I made at the height of my corporate leadership roles—both of which I now realize were driven by ADHD.

On the outside, they looked like bold, deliberate moves. On the inside, I was in fight-or-flight mode, making fear-based calls that brought short-term relief but long-term consequences.

You’ll hear:

How ADHD traits like impulsivity, emotional intensity, and uncertainty intolerance can influence leadership decisions under pressure
Why big life transitions (like parenthood) can magnify ADHD tendencies at work
The difference between acting from clarity versus acting from discomfort
What I wish I had done differently—and how you can apply those lessons in your own leadership role

If you’ve ever left a role, made a major career move, or passed up an opportunity only to later question the decision, this episode will give you tools to pause, assess, and choose with strategy, not stress.

If you are at that tipping point—knowing something needs to change, but not sure what—this is where a pause can change everything. My ADHD-Powered Clarity Pit Stop is a focused, one-on-one session to help you slow down, see the full picture, and make your next move from strategy, not stress.
