## Resource

Today I’m joined by my friend Ari Tuckman, psychologist, ADHD thought leader, and author of The ADHD Productivity Manual , for a real, down-to-earth conversation about what it actually looks like to be productive with an ADHD brain. We kick things off by unpacking Ari’s idea that productivity is a mental game , and why that matters way more than whatever planner or app you’re using. We also call out “fake productivity,” the stuff that feels productive but isn’t actually moving your life forward. From there, we get into the good stuff: how to choose the right goals when you have a million ideas, how to realistically assess your time without lying to yourself, and what it takes to build a work environment and workflow that actually supports your brain. We also talk about your relationship with your to-do list, what to do when overwhelm hits, and how to navigate the ambiguity that comes with doing meaningful work. And maybe most importantly, we zoom out and ask: how productive do you really need to be? This one is practical, honest, and full of those “oh wow, I’ve never thought about it like that” moments.
