If Accounting Makes Your ADHD Brain Shut Down, Listen to This (with Joe Dunaway)
Description
If the word accounting makes your attention disappear, this episode is for you.
Skye sits down with Joe Dunaway - founder of Vici Financial, accountant, business owner, and ADHDer - to talk about why so many ADHD entrepreneurs avoid their numbers, and how to understand them without overcomplicating things or forcing yourself into systems you won’t maintain.
This isn’t about becoming good at accounting.
It’s about knowing enough to make decisions, reduce background stress, and stop guessing about your business.
We cover:
- Why accounting causes shutdown for ADHD brains
- The real cost of avoiding your numbers
- The fastest way finances get messy (and how to stop it)
- How to separate signal from noise in your financials
- When numbers actually become useful instead of overwhelming
If you’ve been telling yourself “I’ll look at it later” — this conversation will help you finally look, without spiraling.
