ADHD, Momentum, and Other Mythical Creatures (with Russ Jones)

The ADHD Skills Lab

This one’s real, hilarious, and way too relatable.

Skye sits down with Russ Jones, ADHD coach, creator of the Ready, Set, Go framework, and host of the *ADHD Big Brother* podcast, to talk about what it really takes to build momentum when you’re working with an ADHD brain.

They share stories, laugh a lot, and unpack the small mindset shifts that make consistency feel possible, even on the days when motivation disappears. Russ also shares what has changed for him since joining Skye’s coaching program, and the systems that are helping him keep that momentum going.

What we cover:

  • How to build momentum when you never feel “ready”
  • The “Even Though” mindset for taking small steps that stick
  • Why ADHD-friendly systems need humor, not pressure
  • What accountability looks like when you hate being told what to do
  • How progress really happens inside an ADHD brain

Diagnosed with ADHD at the start of her PhD, Skye Waterson spent years researching what actually works and writing about it for thousands of founders. The pattern she kept finding: ADHD business owners don't have a focus problem, they have an operations problem, because the whole business runs through their own head. Now she and her husband, former programmer Robert Waterson, work as fractional COOs for those founders. They find the bottleneck, hire the fix, and build the system that holds.
