She encourages aspiring speakers to recognize that every successful speaker once faced similar insecurities and that persistence is crucial in sharing their message. The discussion highlights the empowerment that comes from taking action and the impact one's message can have on others.
Takeaways
Every TEDx speaker you've ever seen was also someone sitting where you're sitting right now.
You don't need permission to speak.
You need to apply. The worst thing that happens is they say no.
Eventually, they say yes, and your message will reach people who desperately need to hear it.
Take up space or be more qualified or more polished or more certain.
Apply anyway, despite your doubts.
Your message will reach people who need it.
Persistence is key in public speaking.
Don't wait for permission to share your story.
Every 'no' brings you closer to a 'yes'.
Sound bites
"Apply anyway, despite your doubts."
"You don't need permission to speak."
"Take up space and share your voice."

You spent 3 hours building the perfect Notion workflow. Used it for 2 days. Now it's digital dust while you're back to chaos.

✨ The 3 limiting beliefs keeping you stuck in chaos
✨ What the business world gets wrong about systems
✨ The 5-strategy framework for lazy systems that stick

Episode Overview
Time blindness isn't a character flaw...it's a neurological reality. Every time management system out there is designed for brains that can estimate how long things take, maintain focus on demand, and generate motivation consistently.
ADHD brains can't do any of that.
Stop forcing neurotypical productivity methods onto your neurodivergent brain and learn what actually works: energy management over time management, dopamine-first strategies, and systems designed for time blindness.
What You'll Learn
Why Traditional Time Management Fails ADHD Brains:
How time blindness affects ADHD entrepreneurs (thinking something takes 20 minutes, then 3 hours later...)
Why time blocking doesn't work for brains that hyperfocus for 3 hours or can't focus for 3 minutes
The "early bird" myth and why forcing morning routines is self-sabotage for many ADHD brains
How planning paralysis keeps you from actually executing
5 Strategies That Actually Work for ADHD Time Management:
Energy Management Over Time Management - Organize by energy levels, not clock hours (protect your 2-3 peak hours for revenue tasks)
The Two-List System - One must-do task per day + optional can-do list (stop overwhelming yourself with 47 tasks)
Time Anchors Instead of Time Blocks - Attach tasks to natural rhythms ("after coffee" not "9 AM")
The Dopamine-First Approach - Start with enjoyable tasks to generate dopamine, THEN tackle hard stuff (opposite of "eat the frog")
External Accountability Beats Willpower - Body doubling, accountability partners, public commitments work better than self-discipline
Key Takeaways
Time blindness is neurological, not a personal failing
ADHD brains have 2-3 peak productivity hours per day—protect them fiercely
Energy management beats time management for neurodivergent entrepreneurs
Dopamine-first approach works better than forcing yourself to do hard tasks first
External accountability replaces unreliable internal motivation
Time anchors provide structure without rigidity
Stop system-hopping and build ONE that works with your brain
Rapid-Fire ADHD Time Tips
Always late? Triple your time estimates
Forget everything? Voice memos immediately
Can't start tasks? Lower the barrier ("write one sentence" not "write whole post")
Easily distracted? Work in public spaces for external structure
Schedules don't stick? Try task-based days (Content Monday, Client Tuesday)
