Ever had 47 browser tabs open, a Pinterest board going, music playing, and still feel like you got nothing done? Same. This week, Anthony sits down with Brittney — photographer, university marketing pro, church creative, and all-around neurodivergent multitasker — to talk about what it's actually like to run a business AND clock into a corporate job when your brain doesn't do structure on command.

They get into: time blindness, time blocking (the dream vs. the reality), why monotonous jobs are basically ADHD torture and how creativity can feel like the one thing keeping it all together. If you've ever felt like you're doing too much and somehow still falling behind — this one's for you.
