356 Tech Jobs + ADHD Minds: How David Made It Work

In this episode, I sit down with David—a long-time FOCUSED member turned coach—to talk about what it really looks like to work in tech with an ADHD brain. David shares how he found his way into the tech world, the challenges he faced behind the scenes, and the systems he built to survive (and eventually thrive).

We explore:

1. The hardest parts of tech culture for an ADHDer
2. The moments where David’s brain said, “Nope,” and how he recovered
3. The tools, structures, and hacks that actually work for him
4. Why traditional productivity advice falls flat for ADHDers in high-pressure tech roles
5. How he transformed the way he works, thinks, and leads—through coaching and community

You’ll also hear a bit about his move from England to the U.S., how cultural differences shaped his ADHD experience, and how stepping into a coaching role helped him grow in unexpected ways.
