ADHD, Data & Respecting Your Time
This is an earlier episode (back when the podcast was Corporate to Calm) but the message feels even more powerful now for ADHD entrepreneurs.
Because if you have ADHD, time can feel slippery.
Money can feel emotional.
Focus can feel inconsistent.
And information overload? Constant.
In this episode, I sit down with Ellen Gunning, PR Consultant, Data Prophet, Author, Broadcaster, Serial Entrepreneur and founder of both the Irish Academy of Public Relations and Mettacomms.
With over 30 years in business, Ellen shares a principle that stopped me in my tracks
“I’ve great respect for my own time and money.”
That’s a Habit Path cornerstone.
Because for ADHD brains, respecting your time isn’t natural, it’s a system.
We explore
✨ Building longevity in business
✨ Extracting the right data (not drowning in it)
✨ Crisis communications & clear messaging
✨ The intersection of tech, media & people
✨ Thought leadership that’s strategic not reactive
✨ Why protecting your time protects your energy
Here’s the ADHD angle
Our brains are brilliant at spotting patterns.
At connecting dots.
At thinking strategically.
But without structure, we
Overconsume.
Overcommit.
Overextend.
The Habit Path isn’t about doing more.
It’s about filtering better.
Clarity is a habit.
Boundaries are a habit.
Financial self-respect is a habit.
Ellen embodies what happens when you combine intellect with discipline.
If you’re building a business with ADHD and want to stop leaking time, energy and attention this conversation will sharpen you.
