Toxic productivity, remembering to remember, and rejection sensitivity (Jesse Anderson’s story)

Jesse Anderson wishes he’d had an ADHD manual when he was first
diagnosed as an adult, so he wrote one. Before he was diagnosed,
he never considered having ADHD himself. After his wife
encouraged him to look into it more, his trouble with remembering
to do things, time management, and anger started to take a
different shape in his mind.


Today, Jesse is an ADHD advocate, writer, speaker, and author of
the book Extra Focus: The Quick Start Guide to Adult ADHD.
Join host Laura Key and Jesse as they discuss toxic productivity,
prospective memory, and the magic of owning a whiteboard.
