Creative Power Hour: Build a Business Around How Your Brain Actually Works
Join the Creative Women Entrepreneurs community for our next Creative Power Hour, a 60-minute, high-impact virtual session designed to help you level up your creative business... fast!
This month, we're joined by Annamarie Marino, ADHD & Executive Function Coach and Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, for a conversation about why so many creative entrepreneurs think differently and how to build a business around how your brain actually works, not against it.
Whether you have ADHD, suspect you might, or simply find yourself overflowing with ideas while struggling with follow-through, overwhelm, prioritization, or burnout, this session will help you better understand the connection between creativity, entrepreneurship, and executive functioning.
What You'll Learn:
Why so many creative entrepreneurs share similar thinking patterns, with or without an ADHD diagnosis.
The "Entrepreneur's Paradox": how your greatest strengths can also create your biggest business challenges.
What executive functions are, and why they often matter more than motivation or intelligence when it comes to getting things done.
Why traditional productivity advice doesn't work for everyone, and what to do instead.
Practical, ADHD-friendly systems that reduce overwhelm, improve follow-through, and help you build a more sustainable creative business.
You'll leave with:
A better understanding of your own creative thinking style.
Greater self-compassion around the challenges of entrepreneurship.
A simple framework for building a business that supports your strengths, rather than fighting against them.
Our session will be hosted live on Zoom, and the link will be shared with confirmed RSVPs one hour prior to the session.
Can't make the session live? RSVP anyway and we'll share the replay.
Who This Is For:
If you're a woman or femme freelancer, creative, or founder earning income from your creativity or expertise, this session is for you.
Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, suspect you may have it, or simply find yourself struggling with focus, follow-through, and overwhelm while running your business, you'll leave with practical insights you can apply right away.
We welcome artists, makers, designers, writers, photographers, filmmakers, product creators, event planners, marketers, educators, musicians, and other creative entrepreneurs.
