When Mandy and I first crossed paths in a women's marketing mastermind group years ago, her vibrant energy and unmistakable talent made it clear she was headed for big things. However, nobody including Mandy could've predicted the eccentric places her creative ADHD brain would wind up taking her.

Mandy's foray into filmmaking first began when she got bored and convinced her Mayor husband to run off to a nudist colony and live in a tiny RV nestled in the Issaquah Alps. Their three-year adventure in the nudist colony, which she describes as being "like one giant SNL skit that took place on the set of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," became the catalyst for her captivating documentary, Escape from Tiger Mountain Family Nudist Park. Mandy's documentary received recognition from film festivals around the world, and before she knew it, she was an award-winning documentarian.

During our heartwarming and humorous conversation, Mandy shares her experiences as a self-taught documentarian and how she transformed her ADHD into a formidable asset. We explore the beauty of hyperfixation, the importance of embracing boredom as a creative person, and the power of treating ADHD as a lifelong journey of self-discovery.
