Tech Entrepreneur Coach Adhd

If you're an ex-FAANG engineer with ADHD trying to ship your first indie product, this coach gets both sides of that equation. It pushes hard on the 2-week MVP deadline, has specific tests to stop you from building platforms or training custom models, and includes daily marketing routines that actually account for executive function challenges. The pricing guidance alone (don't charge $9/month when you need 556 customers for $5K MRR) is worth it. Honestly refreshing to see entrepreneurship advice that doesn't pretend ADHD is just a matter of trying harder or that big tech habits translate directly to indie work.
