Three questions I will ask of any new person I collaborate with...

✔️ What three things do I need to know about you to work well with you?
✔️ What does it look like when you are stressed?
✔️ How do you like to communicate?

I share my answers too of course 🤓

Sometimes I’m afraid to rest with ADHD because I’m convinced if I stop, I’ll never be able to get started again.

My wife just said "if you hate everyone, you should eat something, and if you think everyone hates you, you should go to sleep" and I don't think I've heard a better life hack

On 26th June I am dragging my family around #5kprettymuddy to raise much needed funds for #CancerResearch - to help reduce the ratio of 1 in 2 people getting cancer for our future generations. If you can spare any pennies in these hard times - much love

People with ADHD will seriously go hyperfocusing on something for 14 hours, getting a week's worth of work done, and then the next day be like "Why can't I do anything? I'm so lazy"

The higher up in product you go, the longer the timeframe you need to set the strategy and vision for.

Just shipping is not enough.

You must present a compelling long term vision to move the metrics.

This must be tied to user problems, not solutions.

Would you be interested in doing some psychological safety training? I'm looking for teams and individuals to trial a session with. RTs much appreciated 🙂
