## Resource

There’s nothing more exciting than a new idea. A new offer or a fresh direction. For designers, especially those with ADHD or highly creative brains, novelty feels electric. It feels productive. It feels like momentum. But, are you making a strategic pivot or are you escaping the discomfort of the messy middle? In this episode, I'm diving into the unique wiring of the ADHD designer brain in business, the dopamine spikes, shiny object syndrome and the tendency to overbuild. You'll learn how to discern whether it’s time to shift or time to stay the course. Because hard doesn’t always mean wrong and boredom doesn’t always mean broken.
