Summary

What if the thing that finally got your ADHD brain to follow through on your goals wasn't discipline or willpower, it was your own money on the line?!! In this episode, we get into a goal-setting hack that uses real financial stakes to create the urgency and motivation that ADHD brains actually run on. We break down how it works, how to structure it, and how to make it sustainable without turning it into a burden for the people around you. We cover: Why traditional motivation strategies fall flat for ADHD brains How to use money as both the reward and the consequence to drive action What to do with your money when you actually hit your goal (this part matters more than you might think) How gamification, streaks, and friendly competition can work for financial and personal goals Plus, Sherry shared about a group challenge idea that she has been wanting to do for a while and hasn't taken action on yet.
