Have you ever stared at your to-do list, knowing exactly what you need to do—but somehow, you just can’t start? Or maybe you start, but then obsess over every little detail until you feel completely stuck? What if I told you that procrastination and perfectionism aren’t opposites—but two sides of the same ADHD struggle?
In today’s episode, we’re unpacking the perfectionism-procrastination loop—why so many ADHD entrepreneurs get trapped in it and, most importantly, how to break free.
Because let’s be real: perfectionism feels productive, but in reality, it’s just fancy procrastination. It keeps you stuck in overthinking, self-doubt, and unfinished projects—while your big ideas sit on the shelf collecting dust. And I know you’ve got way too much brilliance to waste on that cycle.
By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly how to stop letting perfectionism kill your progress, rewire your brain to take action before the last minute, and start getting things done without sacrificing quality.
