Breaking the ADHD Burnout Pattern: Stop Overcompensating

If you're an entrepreneur with ADHD, chances are you've lost count of the nights you've stared at your computer, debating whether to add "just one more thing" to a project that's already good. Understanding how ADHD strengths and struggles make you stronger is essential for breaking this cycle. In this episode, ADHD entrepreneur coach Diann Wingert dives into a rarely discussed pattern: never knowing when you've done enough. This chronic uncertainty leads to overdelivering, overworking, and an endless hunt for "safe" territory—a direct path to ADHD burnout. The urge to keep working isn't about ambition; it's about an internal meter that doesn't know where to stop. Diann presents the "Enough Already" framework—five steps to recalibrate your inner meter and prevent ADHD burnout. Redefining "enough" isn't about lowering standards—it's about staying in the game long enough for your excellence to compound. As ADHD entrepreneur coach Diann Wingert says, "Exhaustion isn't strategy—sustainability is." Every hour you over-polish is energy stolen from future growth.
