Matthew Bradshaw was diagnosed with ADHD at 27, and instead of seeing it as a disability, he’s built his entire life and business around it as an advantage. This episode contains a paid partnership with Leagues Ahead. In this conversation we get into what ADHD actually feels like day to day, why traditional structure doesn’t work for an ADHD brain, and how Matt manages his ADHD without medication, relying instead on supplements, dopamine cycles and systems he’s built himself as an entrepreneur.

We also talk about what happened when Matt took optimisation too far, using AI to run every part of his life from his meals to his sleep to his schedule, and how that eventually left him feeling like a robot instead of a person. It’s an honest look at the line between using tools to improve your life and losing yourself in the process, plus why consistency beats intensity, why Mondays are Matt’s favourite day, and why nobody should trade places with the people they envy.

If you’re an entrepreneur, you live with ADHD, or you’ve ever wondered whether you’re over-optimising your own life, this one’s for you.
