The ADHD Skills Lab
Things are starting to fall through the cracks.
Not because you're not trying, but because the systems everyone recommends weren't built for a brain like yours.
The ADHD Skills Lab is for business owners with ADHD whose responsibilities have grown past simple solutions. Each week, Skye Waterson and guests share research-backed strategies and real-world systems to help you reduce the chaos, make consistent progress, and stop reinventing the wheel every time life gets complex.
No "just use a planner." No productivity hacks that last a week. Just honest, practical support from someone who has spent years researching, testing, and refining what actually works for adult ADHD.
Skye is the founder of Unconventional Organisation, a former academic diagnosed with ADHD during her PhD, and the author of over 50 articles read by more than 250,000 people worldwide. She has worked with senior leaders, business owners, academics, and professionals navigating ADHD in high-responsibility roles, and was invited to share her research with both the Australian and New Zealand Government.

I Walked Away From $48K and a PhD: My ADHD Origin Story
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Before Unconventional Organisation, before the coaching, before the 82K followers - there was burnout, academic pivots, and a year spent working in a bakery just to recover.
This is the story Skye's never told.
In this episode, dating coach, fellow founder, and friend Kavita interviews Skye about what really led to the creation of Unconventional Organisation. From side gigs to business models, academic accolades to real-world impact - this is the story behind the strategy.
What we cover:
- What ADHD looks like before you even know you have that
- The power of quitting what no longer fits
- Why consistency feels terrifying - and how to fix it
- Why your boring task might be killing your revenue
- The system that finally ended the start-stop spiral
This is the blueprint Skye never had. Now it’s yours.
P.S. If your ADHD symptoms turn every business day into chaos, with unfinished tasks piling up and revenue stuck, it's not you. It's your operating system. Click here to book an operational strategy session with Skye.
