About this episode

Rich and Rox discuss ten strategies to leverage ADHD creativity effectively.

The ADHD brain can generate approximately 900 brilliant ideas before breakfast. Finishing one of them is where things get complicated. This week, Rich and Rox share ten ways to harness ADHD creativity without losing the plot, abandoning the project or accidentally bankrupting yourself. They talk hyperfocus, impossible goals, “dopamine dollars,” building the team your brain is missing and why confidence comes after you start—not before. Rox also discovers she may have leaked the title of another album, which rather proves one of the points. 20% off Loop Earplugs: ⁠ https://www.loopearplugs.com/adhdlove CHAPTERS 00:00 ADHD and creativity 02:18 When lightning strikes, run towards it 06:07 Make the goal feel impossible 08:43 Don’t spend your dopamine dollars 10:35 Rox accidentally leaks another album 11:27 Keep your creative project shiny 13:17 Nobody starts confident 15:16 Loop Earplugs 16:22 Build the team your brain is missing 20:54 Don’t become your own bottleneck 23:29 Don’t make permanent decisions in temporary emotions 25:59 Market like you don’t have ADHD 29:45 Don’t bankrupt yourself 33:07 Final thoughts
