How ADHD entrepreneurs can find more energy

From Squirrel to Success: Energy Management Tips for the ADHD Entrepreneur

Are you sick of finding your meat suit's running on empty before midday? I'm going to talk you through how ADHD entrepreneurs can find more energy!

Hey, I'm Katie McManus, business strategist and money mindset coach, and this is my podcast "The Weeniecast!"

In episode 79, I'm diving into something that might sound a bit routine, but trust me, it's the lifeblood of our productivity as an ADHD entrepreneur: energy management.

Now, hold on—before you let out an exasperated sigh—this episode isn't about the mundane.

We're not chasing after shiny productivity hacks.

Instead, we're slowing down to speed up.

You heard me.

It sounds counterintuitive, I know, but that's the magic I'm unpacking today.

Personal anecdotes and practical experiments have shown me that some of the simplest changes in our daily habits can have the most profound impacts when it comes to firing up that creative brain of ours and leading a business that's as healthy as we are.

I've always pushed back against the term ‘self-care,’ and in this conversation, I'm inviting you to do the same.

Instead, I'm presenting it as an essential part of our energy toolkit.

From my own experiences, I tell you how taking a moment to walk my dog, Luna, without multitasking, can clear my mind and spark those bright ideas that lead to immense productivity later on.

I dig into why that is and how we can make it a habit.

And I'm not just talking about enjoying the breezy outdoors—I'm getting into the science of it all: why our ADHD brains function the way they do, and how we can leverage that knowledge for our benefit.

From eating a breakfast that balances protein and carbs to sharing the surprising benefits of a good workout or meditative moment, I'm outlining the building blocks for sustainable energy levels that translate to business success.

But what you'll really take away post-listen is not just a bunch of knowledge nuggets—you'll be empowered to make these energy tools work for your entrepreneurial life.

I promise, you'll see how the mundane can be extraordinary.

We talk about how to turn your dog walk into a powerhouse for business planning and how to let a workout beat the stress out of your system so your creativity can kick back in.

And it's not just about the to-dos and lists; I'm giving you permission to pace yourself for premium output.

It might even lead you to fall back in love with the work that you do, and that's a beautiful thing.

We're flipping the script here, moving from frenzied to focused, so that when you do sit down to work, you're coming at it with all cylinders firing—your mind is sharp, calm, and oh-so-ready!

Timestamped Summary:

00:00 Prioritize daily habits for increased energy.

03:46 Prioritizing, clearing mind, and alleviating stress outdoors.

08:04 Fear blocks creativity, prioritize wellness for productivity.

11:50 Exercise helps focus, no gym required.

Squirrel, squirrel, squirrel. In this episode, I'm telling you the

Speaker:

smorgasbord of energy tips to help you be

Speaker:

more productive and more healthy in your business.

Speaker:

Hi, I'm Katie McManus, business strategist and money mindset coach, and

Speaker:

welcome to the Weenie cast, Squirrel. This

Speaker:

may very well be the least sexy episode that

Speaker:

we've ever done of the Weenie cast. And now that we've lost all the listeners

Speaker:

that are only here for the sex appeal, let's talk about the secret to

Speaker:

you having more energy, to being healthier and getting

Speaker:

more done. And as you're listening, I guarantee you

Speaker:

one thing. You're going to have moments where you're going to be like, okay,

Speaker:

mom, so if you want to call me Mama McManus for

Speaker:

this episode, have at it.

Speaker:

Before we get into this, I want to just acknowledge the elephant in

Speaker:

the room of the term self

Speaker:

care and how it typically gives people with adhd

Speaker:

more anxiety than it does relieve it. When

Speaker:

we hear of self care things that we need to do, it doesn't sound like,

Speaker:

oh, wow, that would be so nice. Yes, I should absolutely do that. Wow, that

Speaker:

would be so enjoyable. When we hear a list of self care things that we

Speaker:

should be doing, we think, oh, there's more I should be doing.

Speaker:

Damn it. Like, is there enough time? How would I do that? Can I

Speaker:

multitask it? Will people notice if I have a face mask on while I'm on

Speaker:

a Zoom call with them? Maybe I'll just have my video off. Maybe I can

Speaker:

take client calls while walking my dog. And our brains go into

Speaker:

hyperdrive trying to figure out all the ways that we can

Speaker:

multitask all the things that we need to do, which we know never

Speaker:

works. We might do it once, and then we forget about it because it

Speaker:

doesn't become a habit, because it's not easy to do. So

Speaker:

when we're talking about these things, forget the label self

Speaker:

care. These are critical things that you need to prioritize in

Speaker:

your day to day that will help you have more energy.

Speaker:

And when you make time for these things, and they will take time,

Speaker:

you will actually be able to get other things done faster.

Speaker:

In a world where we're trying to go faster and faster and faster and get

Speaker:

more things done in less time, we're constantly breaking, we're taking

Speaker:

shortcuts that actually don't get us to where we want to go. I mean,

Speaker:

if you were to open up any social media platform right now, I guarantee

Speaker:

if you scrolled for two minutes, you would see an ad

Speaker:

where someone's promising to show you how to use AI

Speaker:

to create content faster, to lose weight faster, to

Speaker:

organize your kitchen faster. I don't know, like they're using AI for crazy things right

Speaker:

now, but the truth of the matter is to go

Speaker:

faster, you actually have to go slower. And that is

Speaker:

so not sexy to say, but it's true.

Speaker:

And before we get into it, I want to show you how you, as an

Speaker:

ADHD person, as an ADHD business owner, are actually set up

Speaker:

to get more done by slowing down than a

Speaker:

neurotypical. And I know this from experience because this is true

Speaker:

for me. I'm going to use the example of one thing that I do every

Speaker:

single day, and that's walk my dog. Now, on the days where I'm walking my

Speaker:

dog and I'm trying to like do phone calls and touch base with people on

Speaker:

my team and I'm checking all the comments on my LinkedIn post

Speaker:

and I'm looking at my email like while she's sniffing around, not while we're

Speaker:

crossing the street, but we're safe when we cross the street. On those days where

Speaker:

I try to get all this stuff done during my walk,

Speaker:

I actually get less done overall because on that walk I'm not

Speaker:

actually relaxing. I'm not actually letting my mind clear. I'm not actually

Speaker:

connecting with the love of my life, Luna, my sheepadoodle.

Speaker:

And when I get back to my office, to my desk, my brain is

Speaker:

frantic already. It doesn't know how to prioritize, right? It has all

Speaker:

these things going on in the back of my mind because it was just

Speaker:

running the whole time I was on this walk. And

Speaker:

instead of coming back with purpose and with

Speaker:

a creative idea and with intent to get something done,

Speaker:

I come back just a complete mess of anxiety.

Speaker:

On the days where I purposely don't have my headphones in, I

Speaker:

have my phone in a pocket that zipped up and I'm

Speaker:

not reaching for it every second when it buzzes. On those days where I'm

Speaker:

enjoying the walk and I'm looking at the trees and I'm talking to

Speaker:

my dog because we have conversations, as most dog owners

Speaker:

will know, and as I'm just enjoying being outside and

Speaker:

I'm enjoying moving my body, on those days as I'm

Speaker:

out, I have ideas for what I want to do. I'm

Speaker:

able to clear my mind of all the clutter and really understand

Speaker:

what is the thing that I'm most excited about getting done that day.

Speaker:

And usually when I hone in on what that one thing is

Speaker:

I get so excited for an idea that I have about how to do it

Speaker:

that'll make it more fun and more interesting for myself on

Speaker:

these walks, if there's something in the back of my mind that's stressing me

Speaker:

out, walking actually helps me alleviate the stress.

Speaker:

This also happens when I work out, like, when I'm on my peloton or I'm

Speaker:

lifting weights. There's a moment, and I'm sure this is familiar to

Speaker:

you, there's a moment when you're in your workout. Like, it's really hard when

Speaker:

you're stressed out about something because you're constantly thinking about it,

Speaker:

and it's so hard to describe the sensation,

Speaker:

but it's almost like those little notches that they put in maple trees

Speaker:

to drain the. The stuff that they make maple syrup with.

Speaker:

It's almost like that gets tapped into your ankle and out of

Speaker:

your ankle, drains all of the anxiety and stress that you've been

Speaker:

experiencing. And you never know when it's gonna hit in your workout. Like, sometimes it's

Speaker:

in the five minute mark, but sometimes it's like 29 minutes into

Speaker:

your 30 minutes workout. But

Speaker:

the sensation is absolutely incredible. Like, your body

Speaker:

lets go of the cortisol and the adrenaline,

Speaker:

which, by the way, if you're constantly in a stressed

Speaker:

out state and you have adrenaline in your system, adrenaline can only

Speaker:

be moved out of your body through movement. You can't drink enough

Speaker:

water to wash adrenaline out of your system. You have to move

Speaker:

it out. You have to go and get exercise. You have to get your heart

Speaker:

rate up. It's the only way adrenaline moves out of your system. You know, I

Speaker:

don't care if you need a dance break in between calls where you're feeling a

Speaker:

lot of anxiety. If you have adrenaline in your system, move it out of your

Speaker:

system. So after a walk where I'm really focusing on just being on the

Speaker:

walk and letting myself enjoy it and letting myself experience it, and I come back

Speaker:

to my desk, I get the first thing done, and that leads to me getting

Speaker:

the second thing done, and that leads to me getting the third thing done.

Speaker:

When we slow down to speed up, usually the thing that we do to slow

Speaker:

down, the thing that sets us up for success, going for a walk, exercising,

Speaker:

meditating, sitting down, and actually eating breakfast

Speaker:

and focusing on breakfast and maybe having a nice time

Speaker:

talking to loved ones as you have breakfast without trying

Speaker:

to multitask in that moment. What it does is it sets you up

Speaker:

to mono task for the rest of the day. It tells you

Speaker:

the world is safe. This is actually a very secure

Speaker:

environment. You don't have to rush. We're not in fight or flight.

Speaker:

You can be creative. You can ease into your work. And

Speaker:

we all know this when we're in our most

Speaker:

creative and grounded state as ADHD

Speaker:

people, we figure out the laziest way to get

Speaker:

things done. We figure out the hack that works best for us.

Speaker:

We learn how to multipurpose all the things in a way

Speaker:

that's really elegant. But when we start our days trying

Speaker:

to multitask, the most basic things, you know, taking calls

Speaker:

on your, on your walk with your dog, answering emails, responding

Speaker:

to texts, doing all those things, what we actually tell our nervous system

Speaker:

is that this is fight or flight. We're fighting a battle on every

Speaker:

front. Everything is urgent. Panic, panic,

Speaker:

anxiety, anxiety. This is scary. When we get back to our desks,

Speaker:

we don't have that focus. We don't have access to our creativity because we're

Speaker:

actually in fear mode. Of all the things that we need to get done, and

Speaker:

because all the things that we need to get done are now associated

Speaker:

with fear, we don't get dopamine from them. Like, we can get

Speaker:

two or three of those things done and we won't get any dopamine from it

Speaker:

and we will not be able to go on and do more work for the

Speaker:

day. Now, I explain all this to you because I want you to understand the

Speaker:

things I'm going to tell you to do to be able to boost your energy

Speaker:

and be healthier and be happier in your business. Your

Speaker:

brain is going to go, I don't have time for that. Are you

Speaker:

crazy? Like, there's no way. Have you seen my to do

Speaker:

list? And I don't have to see your to do list,

Speaker:

but I know that it doesn't matter what's on your to do list.

Speaker:

Creating time to do things that take care of your wellness, things

Speaker:

that boost your energy in the morning or earlier on in the day,

Speaker:

will set you up to be able to get those things done faster with more

Speaker:

creativity, having more fun. And because you're more

Speaker:

creative and you have more fun doing them, they're going to be far more effective

Speaker:

in your business. So are you

Speaker:

ready for your first okay, mom moment? Because you have to

Speaker:

eat. As ADHD people, we constantly forget to

Speaker:

eat food. And I want you to think about it like this. If you were

Speaker:

to get in your car and it like, had only like an 8th a tank

Speaker:

of gas and you started driving, would you expect the car to be

Speaker:

able to get to a point that's 200 miles away without filling

Speaker:

up the tank? Absolutely not. The car

Speaker:

cannot run without gas. That's just how cars

Speaker:

work. They require gas to run. Human bodies

Speaker:

are similar. We require calories

Speaker:

and water to be able to run effectively. So one

Speaker:

of the most important things that you can do to

Speaker:

guarantee you get things done throughout the day is to eat breakfast

Speaker:

and eat lunch and to make sure you're hydrating throughout the

Speaker:

day. And as I say this, I want to just do a disclaimer. I'm not

Speaker:

a nutritionist. I have no training in

Speaker:

telling people what they should eat. I only know this from my own experience

Speaker:

and from what I have learned from nutritionists who have advised me in the past.

Speaker:

But you need protein and you need carbs. One of the most impactful things

Speaker:

I've done for my adhd and my ability to focus on things throughout

Speaker:

the day is by making sure that I'm getting between 20 and 30 grams of

Speaker:

protein before noon. And actually, the sooner you can eat it

Speaker:

or get it in your system after you wake up, the better it helps your

Speaker:

metabolism. I think I'm actually going to completely misquote the science

Speaker:

here. I think it does something with your blood sugar.

Speaker:

It helps you, like, stabilize it throughout the day. It makes sure that you don't

Speaker:

have crashes, essentially. It helps you have sustained energy.

Speaker:

Now, that said, I know a lot of people out there are like, oh, I'm

Speaker:

cutting carbs. I'm cutting carbs. Dude, stop it. Your brain needs

Speaker:

carbs to work. There's a reason why we've had

Speaker:

carbs for millennia. We've had bread, we've had

Speaker:

grain, we've had rice. I mean, except for people with celiacs, it hasn't killed

Speaker:

anyone. Like, Sophia Loren even pointed to her body

Speaker:

and was like, everyone, this is the result of eating

Speaker:

pasta. You need carbs to be able to think clearly.

Speaker:

So I don't care what you have for breakfast, but make sure that you're getting

Speaker:

some protein and you're getting some carbs. And if possible, limit the amount of

Speaker:

sugar. Sugar for an ADHD brain, I'm sure you've

Speaker:

experienced this. It makes us kind of go crazy. It spikes

Speaker:

our anxiety, we burn through it really fast, and then we

Speaker:

crash and we need a nap. And nothing against naps, I'm a

Speaker:

big fan of a granny nap. I actually have granny naps most

Speaker:

days, at least 20 to 30 minutes. Highly recommend

Speaker:

them. But what I don't recommend is setting yourself up

Speaker:

to need one because you're giving yourself a ton of sugar every

Speaker:

single day, the

Speaker:

next thing that will help you be more productive. And I know,

Speaker:

like, this is an idealized world, right?

Speaker:

For those of you who have kids, who have a lot of responsibility,

Speaker:

do what you can. There's no perfect, okay, you don't have to go

Speaker:

to the gym for a full hour for it to count. Do squats for ten

Speaker:

minutes, do 50 push ups and 50 squats and call that a

Speaker:

day. But exercise studies have shown

Speaker:

that lactic acid, which gathers in your muscles

Speaker:

when you do exercise, actually helps our

Speaker:

brains, the ADHD brain, focus more. That's the least scientific

Speaker:

way I'm going to describe it. But if you can make your muscles burn a

Speaker:

bit in the morning, it's going to help your brain focus later in the day.

Speaker:

And of course, I'm not a personal trainer. I don't know what physical shape you're

Speaker:

in. If there's any question, I want you to check with your doctor before you

Speaker:

do any physical exercise. But know that if you can

Speaker:

and if it's healthy for you, exercise will help you be more effective

Speaker:

in your work. It'll give you more energy, it'll give you more ability to

Speaker:

focus, and it will lower your anxiety.

Speaker:

The next one. I know you're probably tired of hearing this if you don't

Speaker:

already do it and you're not already sold on it. Meditation. Meditation

Speaker:

is one of the best things you can do for your mind to help you

Speaker:

really calm your nervous system and be able to focus on

Speaker:

one task at a time. Now, meditations can come

Speaker:

in all different shapes and sizes. You can have guided meditations

Speaker:

that you can do on an app. Those count. You could do transcendental

Speaker:

meditation, which is what I do, where you sit for 20 minutes twice a day,

Speaker:

and you have a mantra. You can do a walking meditation. The

Speaker:

Japanese call it tree bathing or forest bathing. I'm actually not sure what

Speaker:

they call it, but you can go for a walk in the woods, and it's

Speaker:

very calming. You can go to the beach and you can watch the waves.

Speaker:

Hell, there's a mindfulness meditation technique where you

Speaker:

eat a grape. You eat a grape and you just focus on the grape. And

Speaker:

actually you can eat a raisin. It's more complex. You're focusing on

Speaker:

all the different aspects of a single raisin that you can

Speaker:

observe, and it gets you so hyper focused into it

Speaker:

that ten minutes goes by like nothing. And it's

Speaker:

incredibly calming. And at the root of it, I want you to think about it

Speaker:

this way. If you create a practice where you sit

Speaker:

and you're still and you have your eyes closed. Even if you're

Speaker:

just listening to a guided meditation, you know what you're training your nervous

Speaker:

system on. The world is safe enough for me to sit here

Speaker:

with my eyes closed. Your nervous system takes cues from

Speaker:

your actions. If you're running around like a chicken with your head cut off, your

Speaker:

nervous system is thinking, oh, God, something's wrong. We

Speaker:

shouldn't be like, there's something not safe about our environment. But if

Speaker:

you're sitting with your eyes closed, that's a very

Speaker:

vulnerable position, and you're not moving and you're just

Speaker:

listening to a thing or not, or you have a mantra, whatever,

Speaker:

your nervous system is going to pay attention and think, oh,

Speaker:

cool. It's safe enough for us to sit here with our eyes closed and

Speaker:

be vulnerable. Amazing. And when our nervous systems

Speaker:

understand that, it lowers our anxiety and it makes us

Speaker:

better able to access our creativity and to

Speaker:

get more done later. Slowing down

Speaker:

to go faster actually works. Now, the last

Speaker:

bit I want to talk about is, ooh, what am I going to say next?

Speaker:

Well, you'll have to keep listening to find out. But first, squirrel, squirrel,

Speaker:

squirrel, squirrel.

Speaker:

Now, the last bit I want to talk about is rest.

Speaker:

And I want to just come out of the closet and name that. I am

Speaker:

a recovering I'll sleep when I'm dead kind of person. I used to rob

Speaker:

myself asleep at every chance I got. I would constantly burn

Speaker:

the candle at both ends. I would stay up late, I would get up

Speaker:

early, and then I would crash and burn on the weekends

Speaker:

and all weekend. I would just have to recover

Speaker:

from killing myself at work and killing myself having fun and doing

Speaker:

all these different things and not getting enough sleep. Getting enough sleep is one of

Speaker:

the best things you can do for your brain. Studies have shown that your

Speaker:

brain actually doesn't have, like, a waste removal system like the rest

Speaker:

of your body does. Okay. The only time your

Speaker:

brain is actually able to declutter and get rid of dead

Speaker:

cells. Anything that's problematic is while you're

Speaker:

sleeping. It's the only time. So,

Speaker:

literally, if you're not giving yourself enough sleep, and I'm talking seven

Speaker:

to 9 hours, and those of us with ADHD, we actually

Speaker:

need more sleep than neurotypicals because our brains work harder

Speaker:

throughout the day. If we're not getting enough sleep, I want you to imagine,

Speaker:

like, a city dump and people are

Speaker:

dropping off garbage and dropping off garbage, and it's just sitting there and it's

Speaker:

not being moved off site. Like, that's what's happening in your brain.

Speaker:

It's becoming a disgusting, clogged

Speaker:

up, smelly mess, and the people who work there want to quit.

Speaker:

Okay? That's what happens in your brain when you don't get enough sleep. And

Speaker:

I say this knowing that we all live human lives where this

Speaker:

is not always the case. Okay? If you have a dog, I know. You know,

Speaker:

there's moments in the middle of the night where you start hearing that sound,

Speaker:

that sound where they're about to throw up, and then you have to get up,

Speaker:

and you have to deal with it. And if you have kids, worse, sometimes they

Speaker:

come and they're like, mommy, mommy. And then they throw up on you, and then

Speaker:

you have to do laundry. On top of everything, sleep is not always the

Speaker:

thing that we can plan on getting enough of. But if you have the

Speaker:

best intention and you set up your schedule

Speaker:

to enable yourself to get enough sleep, it is an absolute

Speaker:

game changer. And, yes, sometimes your job as

Speaker:

a business owner, when you haven't had enough sleep and

Speaker:

your brain just isn't braining, is to literally go and take a

Speaker:

nap. I know it feels super lazy. It feels very

Speaker:

indulgent. But I want you to look at it from this perspective.

Speaker:

You charge a lot of money for your work. Your clients expect

Speaker:

the best from you. How can you deliver the best

Speaker:

if your brain is not at 100%? You can't.

Speaker:

By you trying to push through exhaustion, you're actually doing

Speaker:

a major disservice to your clients. I want you to imagine it's

Speaker:

almost like a breach of contract. Part of the contract you have with your

Speaker:

clients is that you are going to take care of your brain so that your

Speaker:

brain can provide the service to them at a top level. For

Speaker:

you to fulfill on that contract, you need to have enough sleep. And sometimes to

Speaker:

have enough sleep, you need to take a nap. It's honestly, like, the best

Speaker:

thing about running a business. Like, I don't know why more business gurus don't

Speaker:

try to sell on the naps alone. Like, here they are, like,

Speaker:

sitting on private jets, waving money around, and all they have to do

Speaker:

is just, like, film themselves taking a nap, and I'm sold.

Speaker:

Sign me up for that. Sign me up for, like, what

Speaker:

soft pants are you wearing? Oh, that looks like a cozy weighted blanket. Mm

Speaker:

hmm. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, you have the sound machine on.

Speaker:

Oh, I told

Speaker:

you this is not a sexy episode, but maybe I lied.

Speaker:

Cause I know, I know napping does it for me anyway,

Speaker:

and that's it if you wanna be really good in your business, if you

Speaker:

want to be healthy, if you wanna get more stuff done in less

Speaker:

time, you need to slow down. You need to

Speaker:

schedule in these basic

Speaker:

wellness activities into your day. You need to do

Speaker:

them one at a time. No multitasking to

Speaker:

the best of your ability and it will help you have greater

Speaker:

access to your creativity, less anxiety, and a

Speaker:

better ability to figure out the best way to get all the

Speaker:

big projects done in the most lazy way possible

Speaker:

while still being incredibly effective. And if you

Speaker:

really enjoy the sound of my voice and you would like me to guide you

Speaker:

through some meditations, one of the benefits of being a hyper

Speaker:

focused member is that you have access to a library

Speaker:

of guided meditations that are designed to help you

Speaker:

be more focused and more creative in your business. And if you want

Speaker:

access to those, then I urge you to get on the waitlist.

Speaker:

Membership will be opening soon and you can find that

Speaker:

link in the show notes, but it is also

Speaker:

weeniecast.com

Speaker:

hyperfocus. If you're ready to stop being a

Speaker:

weenie and actually run a business that makes money, then go ahead and book

Speaker:

a generate income strategy call with me by going to

Speaker:

weeniecast.com strategycall.

Speaker:

On this call we will talk about your goals, your dreams,

Speaker:

and your frustrations in getting there. And if it's a fit

Speaker:

for both of us, then we can talk about different ways to work together.

Speaker:

Boom. I got excited about the word smorgasbord.

Speaker:

Squirrel, squirrel, squirrel, squirrel.

I'm Katie McManus and I help entrepreneurs with ADHD to stop being weenies, and start being successful.

As a CPCC (Certified Professional Co-Active Coach) I know how to help people like you to break through their own limiting self beliefs.

I help them understand their own potential for growing their dream business and making seriously life changing amounts of money.

Having ADHD does not stop you from having a winning business strategy!

Each episode I’ll be sharing stories and insights which will inspire you, as a fellow ADHD person with designs on entrepreneurship to step OUT of the weenie, and IN to the winning life of being a successful ADHD entrepreneur!
