Episode notes

I’m your host, psychotherapist Christina Crowe, and I love making invisible things visible. Today I have the privilege of speaking with André Brisson. Today’s episode is chock full of topics related to professional identity and entrepreneurship. We explore our own experiences being founders and successful project and company launcher’s, the need for distinct types of leadership at different stages of business growth, and the challenges of transitioning professionally.

We also discussed the impact of ADHD on motivation and the ability to focus, as well as the nuances of quick start energy and follow-through in the context of entrepreneurship and the critical importance of self-awareness and the need to break old habits to achieve better time management and work-life balance.

Come hang out with us as we meander through the rich context of neurodivergent entrepreneurship, leadership and transformations throughout our careers.

About our guest: André Brisson is the host of The Impulsive Thinker Podcast, the podcast for the high-achieving ADHD entrepreneur. André owns an entrepreneurial consulting engineering company and recently started Tactical Breakthroughs where he is developing the ADHD Transformation Journey Program. Diagnosed late in life with severe ADHD, the mechanisms and systems he created to overcome his undiagnosed ADHD helped him succeed. He credits his undiagnosed ADHD as key to his success and also a factor in restricting success.
