Hey, there.
Speaker A:All right, so today I want to dive into a topic that I don't typically talk about.
Speaker A:And the topic is around executive dysfunction and adhd.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:And we all know I am not an ADHD expert, and I don't want you to think I am.
Speaker A:I don't want to preface this episode like I am.
Speaker A:But what I do want to do is talk about the fact that we all.
Speaker A:Lot of us have a million ideas, our brains are running a million miles a minute, but yet we struggle to get things done right?
Speaker A:We get into this freeze energy, and a lot of that is attributed to executive dysfunction.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:And so I want to talk today about what it is, how it affects us, and how we can work with it to build a business that actually runs smart smoothly and doesn't burn us out.
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:So you ready to dive in?
Speaker A:Okay, so I know I said this in the opening little intro, and I want to just say it again, and I'm going to keep saying it.
Speaker A:I am not an expert in adhd.
Speaker A:I am not a certified ADHD coach, but I am actually not even diagnosed myself.
Speaker A:I do not have a clinical diagnosis of adhd.
Speaker A:However, I feel very strongly that I.
Speaker A:I am adhd.
Speaker A:I have done enough research.
Speaker A:I have done enough of the testing on my own and enough to really understand it and know that, yes, I do indeed struggle with this, and this is very likely what I have.
Speaker A:However, I have not gotten the diagnosis because I don't honestly feel like it will change anything.
Speaker A:It.
Speaker A:I don't feel like I need a diagnosis to change anything.
Speaker A:What is important to me is having the information, knowing that about myself, and knowing what I can do to help put myself in a position that empowers me and works with my brain and not against it.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And that's what I'm hoping to encourage in this episode today.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:And I also just want to say, like, what I realized and I did not realize at the time is that I created the Focus Visionary Accelerator truly out of a place of struggling with my own executive dysfunction.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And so I didn't realize it because I didn't understand it at the time a couple years ago, what exactly that was or what exactly it was that I was struggling with until I started doing more research around it and really started understanding it and realizing, like, this is exactly why I created the program I did, because I struggled with executive dysfunction so badly that.
Speaker A:That I needed something that gave me the structure in the steps to keep myself from that place of overwhelm and shutdown and everything.
Speaker A:Else.
Speaker A:Now, again, I told you, I'm not an expert.
Speaker A:I don't want to pretend like I am.
Speaker A:I'm not at all saying that.
Speaker A:So you're going to hear me pause a little bit because in this episode, I've got a bunch of things up on my screen, some research, because I want to make sure that I'm speaking not out of sorts at all.
Speaker A:And so I'm going to be going between screens because I want to make sure that I'm reading accurate information.
Speaker A:So.
Speaker A:So first and foremost, I want to talk about what executive dysfunction is.
Speaker A:And so I am on the add.org website, if you want to go back to it.
Speaker A:I'll link it in the Show Notes, the actual page that I'm on.
Speaker A:But it says right here, I'm going to read this to you.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Is executive dysfunction is a range of behavioral symptoms that change how a person regulates their emotions, their thoughts, and.
Speaker A:And their actions.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:And so a person with executive dysfunction may notice the following symptoms.
Speaker A:Struggling to plan and organize activities.
Speaker A:Difficulty prioritizing and sequencing steps to complete a task.
Speaker A:Failure to meet deadlines.
Speaker A:Difficulty staying focused.
Speaker A:Trouble regulating emotions.
Speaker A:Lead to appointments, events, meetings, or social activities.
Speaker A:Lose important items and forget details.
Speaker A:Struggles to switch between tasks.
Speaker A:Problems with motivation.
Speaker A:Impulsive and poor decisions.
Speaker A:Difficulty multitasking.
Speaker A:Mentally rigid and or inflexible.
Speaker A:So it says here, someone experienced executive dysfunction may show stuff, some or most of the signs above.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:And so whether or not, quite honestly, what I'm realizing and researching in here is that not everybody that struggles with executive dysfunction has adhd, and not everybody with ADHD struggles with executive dysfunction.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So it.
Speaker A:This is not really one or the other.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Or both.
Speaker A:But my point is, is that I do feel very strongly that most entrepreneurs struggle with some level of executive dysfunction.
Speaker A:There are some out there that are so good at this, that are just like, on it all the time.
Speaker A:They can just bounce between one thing to the next and they're really, really good.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:But for the most part, most of us are not that person.
Speaker A:And I am not that person.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:And so what I really want to talk about, though, today is like understanding how you can work with it and how you can set yourself up for success, even if this is something that you struggle with.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:So especially for those with ADHD, here's another tit now, again, this is coming from ChatGPT.
Speaker A:I will be honest.
Speaker A:I was asking it to do the research for me, and it was.
Speaker A:You know, many entrepreneurs with ADHD find that their brains are constantly on overdrive picking up new ideas, but struggling to bring them to fruition.
Speaker A:This often results in shiny object syndrome.
Speaker A:Feeling scattered or procrastinating because it's hard to focus on one thing at a time.
Speaker A:Ding, ding, ding.
Speaker A:Hello.
Speaker A:How many of us feel that, right?
Speaker A:Like, this is.
Speaker A:What I want you to understand is that these things are normal, right?
Speaker A:Like, this is not like something that is abnormal, but what we need to do is normalize it, understand it, and then figure out how to work with it.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:Because you can't necessarily fix executive dysfunction.
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:So, and that's, I think, where a lot of people struggle is, like, they see that this is an issue, they see that they are struggling with this, and they just keep thinking, I have to fix this.
Speaker A:There has to be a solution to this.
Speaker A:How can I change my brain?
Speaker A:How can I change who I am?
Speaker A:I hate that I am this way.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:And in reality, it is just who you are.
Speaker A:It is how we do things.
Speaker A:And so you can't change it.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:But you can work with it.
Speaker A:So rather than feeling like you need to change yourself, how can you create a system around who you already are and work with your brain's natural rhythms?
Speaker A:So one of the first things that I would encourage you to do is go back through and re listen to that list and figure out, okay, and be honest with yourself.
Speaker A:From this list of executive functioning skills, which of them do I struggle with the most?
Speaker A:So, like, if I were coming back to this list, like, struggling to plan and organize activities is not something I struggle with.
Speaker A:I'm actually very, very good at planning and organizing activities.
Speaker A:Like, I am really good at that.
Speaker A:That is not something I struggle with.
Speaker A:However, difficulty staying focused, failure to meet deadlines, late to appointments, losing important items, forgetting details, problems with motivation, impulsive, making poor decisions.
Speaker A:I struggle with all of those.
Speaker A:Okay, so once I can be honest with myself of like, yep, these are the things that you struggle with.
Speaker A:What are some systems that you can put in place to help you to work with those things instead of against them.
Speaker A:But in all reality, most programs and coaches and things out there in the entrepreneurial space are designed to work against this.
Speaker A:And that's why we struggle so bad to actually feel like we can complete it or feel like we're seeing the results of these programs.
Speaker A:And the reality is, is because these programs were not designed for people that struggle with executive dysfunction, right?
Speaker A:They're designed to just work perfectly.
Speaker A:They're designed for people that can just figure it out, that can take those big ideas and turn it into small Action.
Speaker A:But what I know for a fact is that taking those big ideas and breaking it down into those smaller pie is one of the hardest parts and hardest things for people to do, especially in entrepreneurship.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:I had a client, and you're going to hear a clip from her in a minute that really struggled with this, right?
Speaker A:Like, this was what she actually said is like, I had this big idea and I couldn't figure out how to break it down.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:So really my point here is just understand understanding it, right?
Speaker A:Like, understanding that you are not going to change your self.
Speaker A:And so one of the key struggles with executive dysfunction is this tendency to get overwhelmed.
Speaker A:We were talking about that when faced with complex tasks or a lack of structure, right?
Speaker A:And so what often happens is it leads to this, like, all in.
Speaker A:I'm all in.
Speaker A:I'm going all in.
Speaker A:And you overwork and overwork and you get like, so hyper focused on something that you can't turn it off, right?
Speaker A:And then what happens though is once that wears off, then you go into, like, complete shutdown.
Speaker A:Can't get your motivation back.
Speaker A:I don't want to get back in my office.
Speaker A:I can't seem to get back into it.
Speaker A:Like, once you're out of it, it takes a very long time to get back into it, right?
Speaker A:And so this all or nothing pattern starts to create this massive stress.
Speaker A:It leads to burnout because we start to feel over.
Speaker A:Like, we're either overworked or we're putting ourselves down, or tasks start to back up and then they become, like, insurmountable and then we don't know what, where to, because things have gotten so backed up and now we're in this.
Speaker A:Like, I don't know what to do.
Speaker A:I don't have any clear steps.
Speaker A:I don't have any systems to break them down.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:And so do you see how this cycle, I'm sure, like, as I'm even recording this and saying it, like, yes, Michelle, this is exactly what happens.
Speaker A:You get really hyper focused, right?
Speaker A:And then we go all in.
Speaker A:And then what happens?
Speaker A:And then it's like, yeah, I don't feel like doing that anymore, right?
Speaker A:Like, now I'll get to it again or I'll do it tomorrow, or, you know, and this is things like, every.
Speaker A:Even just little things.
Speaker A:Like, even I find this for me with reading, like, I will start to read a book.
Speaker A:This is where I struggle, even with fiction books is like, I love to read fiction books to shut my brain down, but I get hyper focused on them, right?
Speaker A:Like, and then I Just want to keep reading and keep reading and keep reading and keep reading.
Speaker A:And then, like, everything else falls away.
Speaker A:And then I don't really get anything done.
Speaker A:And then I feel like it hits my motivation.
Speaker A:And so then I stopped, stop reading.
Speaker A:And then I go months without reading again.
Speaker A:Like, I literally, right before this episode, downloaded a new book on my Kindle because I was like, I want to get back into it, but it's been months.
Speaker A:I think it's been since January, since I read a book because I was like, I burned out from it because I just couldn't stop.
Speaker A:And so, like, even that, like, in your personal life, these things happen, right?
Speaker A:And so, like, and this happens in business, like, all the time.
Speaker A:How many of you feel like this?
Speaker A:You start your week with, like, this huge list of things to do, right?
Speaker A:But then the list is there, and then you don't know where to start, how to prioritize it.
Speaker A:Your brain goes into this massive overdrive.
Speaker A:You end up doing all these other little things that are not on your list, that are easier, right?
Speaker A:Scrolling social media, reaching out, doing something fun, watching said training video, signing up for this next networking event, going to this, call that call, yada, yada, yada.
Speaker A:And next thing you know, your to do list is still sitting there.
Speaker A:Because I don't even know where to start.
Speaker A:Where do I even start with this crap?
Speaker A:Okay, right?
Speaker A:Like, that is something that most people struggle with, right?
Speaker A:You shut down because the task feels too big and too busy to tackle all at once.
Speaker A:And so it's like, I don't even know where to start.
Speaker A:I'm just going to not do it, right?
Speaker A:And so I'm sure by now you're like, okay, great, Michelle, you've told us all the things, but, like, how do we actually work with a system?
Speaker A:So here's the thing that I want to tell you is that instead of trying to push through something when it feels overwhelming, you've got to work on a and try to find a way to break it down into your most simplistic, smallest task.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:Whether you do this on paper, whether you do this in a co working session, I know a lot of people, especially those with adhd, are verbal processors.
Speaker A:So maybe you get on a call with a biz bestie, but it's like, what is the exact thing that I need to do?
Speaker A:And I'm going to try to give you an example right now.
Speaker A:So on one of the things on my to do list is schedule the no lead Left behind bootcamp.
Speaker A:Okay, that sounds easy, right?
Speaker A:Like Schedule it, get it on the calendar, which I can do and I have done, but it's literally one of the only things still on my list that I have not done.
Speaker A:You want to know why?
Speaker A:Because it's a huge project, right?
Speaker A:Like scheduling a boot camp especially.
Speaker A:I've run this work is a workshop before, but I want to run it as a bootcamp because I want to be able to go deeper.
Speaker A:I want more interaction versus a workshop.
Speaker A:I think more people are more apt to show up to like a bootcamp versus a workshop because they actually want the tangible actions, right?
Speaker A:They want the hand holding, etc.
Speaker A:Okay, so it's not just about scheduling it, right?
Speaker A:I need to create the graphics for promotion with it.
Speaker A:I don't like to create graphics, which means I have to hire somebody to create the graphics.
Speaker A:Okay, well then I.
Speaker A:If I hire somebody, what graphics do I even need?
Speaker A:What does it even look like?
Speaker A:Do I have dates?
Speaker A:When is it going to run?
Speaker A:What are the times that need to be done?
Speaker A:Do I need worksheets?
Speaker A:How am I going to break up these worksheets?
Speaker A:What, what do they look like?
Speaker A:Do I create the worksheets on Google Drive or should I send them to the graphic designer?
Speaker A:How do I.
Speaker A:Who am I going to reach out to?
Speaker A:Do I want to run leads to the like, ads to this?
Speaker A:Do I not want to run ads to this?
Speaker A:Do I?
Speaker A:Do you see where the brain goes?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:The brain goes.
Speaker A:And so every day it comes like, I'm just not going to do this.
Speaker A:I'm just not going to do this.
Speaker A:But really what needs to happen is on that to do list, instead of scheduling, no lead left behind boot camp, it needs to be broken down into pick the dates.
Speaker A:Okay, done.
Speaker A:Step two, create the landing page for it.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like, how are people going to sign up for this?
Speaker A:Am I going to do a quick convertkit form?
Speaker A:Do I want to do this through ThriveCart?
Speaker A:Is it going to be paid or is it going to be free?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like, you see how each one of these steps turns into like multiple steps.
Speaker A:And that's the thing.
Speaker A:It's like, this is why things shut down.
Speaker A:And so next step, like, if I were going to break this down into bite size, free, paid.
Speaker A:Okay, paid.
Speaker A:How much?
Speaker A:Where do I want to go again?
Speaker A:You can overthink this to the death of this.
Speaker A:You literally have to just like pick a price, right?
Speaker A:And so breaking this down into these little steps and then giving yourself the time, I think that's the hardest part too.
Speaker A:With people that struggle with executive Dysfunction is that we feel like everything has to be done immediately, but you can't.
Speaker A:There's no way.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like, and so when we try to jam it in, then you're going to get into this hyper focus.
Speaker A:So when you have a big project like that, you've got to give yourself a Runway of time to where you actually have the time to execute on it, because you know that this task is going to take you longer than you imagine.
Speaker A:I guarantee you, like, that Time management is another huge piece to this is that we think things like, oh, I can just schedule the bootcamp.
Speaker A:Well, no, it's not that simple.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:So where can you give yourself a Runway of time?
Speaker A:Like, I need to have all the details sorted out between now and next week, right?
Speaker A:So that gives me 10 full business days to actually get all of these little things done.
Speaker A:Am I going to do this paid?
Speaker A:Am I going to do this free?
Speaker A:Am going to run graphics to it?
Speaker A:Like, what graphics do I need?
Speaker A:How do I want to set this up?
Speaker A:What social promotions am I going to run?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like, all of those things.
Speaker A:You've got to give yourself time, okay?
Speaker A:Because here's the other thing that happens with this overwhelm, and you've probably gathered this in that conversation I was just having, is that decision fatigue sets in, right?
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:Do I want to run this paid or free?
Speaker A:Okay, well, now we have another decision.
Speaker A:Okay, We've decided we want to do a paid, but how much do we want to sell it for?
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:And then if we do that, do we run a tripwire?
Speaker A:Do we have, like, an upsell?
Speaker A:Do we run around vip?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:You get into this place of decision fatigue, and as soon as decision fatigue sets in, that's when we freeze, right?
Speaker A:We freeze.
Speaker A:It's paralyzed.
Speaker A:It's too much on your plate.
Speaker A:This whole.
Speaker A:Then the loop starts all over again of, like, what should I do first?
Speaker A:Okay, so you have to break this down to where you're only making, like, three.
Speaker A:I would say three, five, max, if they're small decisions, but most of the time, they're not that small.
Speaker A:Three decisions a day, that's it.
Speaker A:And, like, after that, you're out of decisions.
Speaker A:I tell my husband this all the time.
Speaker A:I'm out of decisions for the day.
Speaker A:Like, I just need you to make that decision for me, because that is a huge thing I struggle with.
Speaker A:Like, decision fatigue is real.
Speaker A:I struggle with that.
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:So it's okay to say I'm out of decisions for the day.
Speaker A:I'm out of decisions for the day.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:And then also really leaning into your creativity.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Most ADHD or people with executive dysfunction, they thrive in creative spaces, right?
Speaker A:And so creativity and executive function kind of always are dysfunction.
Speaker A:Like, they go at it because it's like executive function requires structure, requires strategy, it requires execution, focus, where this creativity is like, really willy nilly.
Speaker A:It's big things, fancy pictures, it's all these things.
Speaker A:And so we want to make sure that you can find a place.
Speaker A:So, like, one of the ways that you can just even bridge the gap with that is like, get out your pen and paper and your markers and like, let your to do list.
Speaker A:Get creative.
Speaker A:Like, be fancy with it.
Speaker A:Like, change colors, draw little pictures, whatever that looks like.
Speaker A:But, like, utilize it.
Speaker A:Utilize your brain.
Speaker A:Like, where do you need.
Speaker A:Do you need a whiteboard with big colors?
Speaker A:Do you need a big sheet of paper?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like, allow yourself to be creative, to be that visionary, to be that big picture thinker.
Speaker A:And then breaking it all down.
Speaker A:I don't care what it looks like.
Speaker A:I mean, that's the thing is like, sometimes it looks messy and that's okay.
Speaker A:It doesn't have to look perfect.
Speaker A:It doesn't have to follow a perfect outline.
Speaker A:It doesn't need to do any of those things.
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:And then don't be afraid to ask for help.
Speaker A:Like, this truly is one of the things I'm telling you right now.
Speaker A:Like, you cannot out hustle this.
Speaker A:You cannot out hustle this.
Speaker A:And one of the things that the best thing that you can do is ask for help.
Speaker A:And this is honestly what I told you in the beginning.
Speaker A:Like, this is why I created the focus visionary is because it is that place that gives you that support.
Speaker A:It's the.
Speaker A:Not only does it give you the structure to like, eliminate the noise and really hone in on the focus of like, what is my intention?
Speaker A:What is the goal?
Speaker A:What am I going to do?
Speaker A:What are the key actions?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like, it breaks it down so easily, but then it also, you have access to me when you're still feeling stuck of like, Like, I'll give you an example.
Speaker A:There's a client in there who wanted to set up this, like, ask me anything lead magnet style.
Speaker A:And she just couldn't even figure out, like, what step one was.
Speaker A:And I was like, step one is create the zoom link, right?
Speaker A:Like, there's power in having support because you cannot out hustle this.
Speaker A:It's not like you can force yourself to be like, I'm gonna do this today.
Speaker A:I'm gonna not.
Speaker A:I'M not gonna struggle with this.
Speaker A:You are.
Speaker A:Okay, so I could keep talking about this, but I want to give you, like, and especially if you, like, are adhd, you're probably like, okay, you're thinking of a million other things.
Speaker A:So I'm gonna give you your action steps.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:Action step number one.
Speaker A:One small task at a time.
Speaker A:Choose one task you've been avoiding and break it down into smaller pieces like I did with Bootcamp.
Speaker A:Like step one, pick dates.
Speaker A:Step two, paid or free.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like literally break it down into those smaller pieces.
Speaker A:Action step number two, build a routine that supports your brain.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:Is it that you need a five minute planning session every morning where you write down those three key tasks?
Speaker A:Is it that you need to give yourself permission to only make three decisions a day and then after that you don't.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Is it that you, every single evening before you go to bed, you kind of write down, okay, tomorrow these three things I have to get done.
Speaker A:And you break it down the night before.
Speaker A:So the next morning it's there and it's ready and waiting for you.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Like that routine is going to look different for everybody because everybody's brain, brain is different.
Speaker A:So create the routine that supports your brain.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:Delegate or automate non essential tasks and honestly.
Speaker A:Or eliminate.
Speaker A:Really it's delegate, automate or eliminate.
Speaker A:If it is a non essential task and it is something that is draining your energy and taking your focus away from the things that you need to be doing, then I want you to eliminate them.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Also look at where you are.
Speaker A:A little bit of the bottleneck.
Speaker A:Where do things get stopped up because of.
Speaker A:Where is a process being stopped because of your needing to be in the middle of it?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So is it that like people can't book an appointment with you until you give them your calendar link or do you have an easy access link to your calendar?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Like that's what you want to really look at.
Speaker A:And then one of the other things that you could potentially do, action step number four is giving yourself like time blocks of like for 30 minutes.
Speaker A:So one of the things that I've been doing is in the morning, like as soon as I wake up, literally, like I wake up, I take my vitamins, I get on my vibration plate, and as soon as I'm done with that, I come in my office and I focus only on, I give myself an hour and I focus only on my money making activities.
Speaker A:That's it.
Speaker A:Nothing else.
Speaker A:I don't get into my emails, I don't worry about anything else.
Speaker A:It's only like, visibility and follow up, like, anything that is, like, money making.
Speaker A:And then after that, it's an hour.
Speaker A:And then after that, I go do my.
Speaker A:The rest of my morning routine.
Speaker A:I go have the rest of my vitamins.
Speaker A:I take my.
Speaker A:I have my breakfast.
Speaker A:I usually take Piper for a walk, right?
Speaker A:Like, I've created this routine where it's like my brain is like, nope.
Speaker A:In the morning, the only thing we do is this.
Speaker A:We don't worry about making other decisions.
Speaker A:We don't worry about getting everything else done.
Speaker A:This period of time is strictly set aside for this one thing, and that's it, right?
Speaker A:And then I also give myself a break, because a lot of times that work is kind of hard and it can be taxing on our brains, and so we need a break after.
Speaker A:So give yourself the break.
Speaker A:Like, schedule your day to give yourself those breaks when you need it.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:And then step number five.
Speaker A:Action.
Speaker A:Step number five is just reflect and ask yourself, like, where did I feel like I really managed myself well this.
Speaker A:This week?
Speaker A:Where do I feel like I could have done better?
Speaker A:What do I need to simplify?
Speaker A:Where am I still struggling?
Speaker A:And then also, like, figure out, like, what help do you need?
Speaker A:Okay, where do you need support?
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:And I just want to leave you with this.
Speaker A:You know, managing ADHD and or executive dysfunction doesn't mean that you're any less capable, okay?
Speaker A:And quite honestly, it means that your brain's working on overdrive, all right?
Speaker A:And when your brain's working on overdrive, you have so much more potential.
Speaker A:It just means that you have a harder time reining it in.
Speaker A:Okay?
Speaker A:And so you need a strategy that works with your.
Speaker A:Your brain, your rhythm, how you do things, all right?
Speaker A: ill without stand behind this: Speaker A:Like, that's exactly why I built the Focus Visionary accelerator.
Speaker A: didn't realize it, But I know: Speaker A:Like, this is exactly what I saw was a struggle and why I built it to give you the structure and the accountability to channel that creativity, but also to keep you focused.
Speaker A:All right?
Speaker A:So if you are ready, right, to just be done with the struggle of this.
Speaker A:Like, I'm gonna work through this.
Speaker A:I'm gonna figure this out on my own.
Speaker A:I'm gonna push through it, right?
Speaker A:Like, if you're done trying to push through it and you just wanna support through it, right?
Speaker A:Like, you can't push through it, but you can get your support through it.
Speaker A:Then I really highly recommend taking a look at the Focus Visionary Accelerator.
