The Gutsy Podcast | Mindset, Personal Development & Entrepreneurship for Women
The Gutsy Podcast is for women, entrepreneurs, and go-getters who are ready to stop holding back and start making gutsy moves in their lives and businesses. Gutsy is the belief and action that happens in the split second when you’re faced with a decision—but this time you choose to go for it instead of going back.
Hosted by Keynote Speaker and Coach, LauraAura, this show is your weekly guide to owning what you actually want, shifting the mind junk that’s been holding you back, and taking bold steps toward your goals.
Each week, you’ll get powerful insights, actionable strategies, and inspiring stories designed to help you break free from overthinking and overcomplicating. Whether you’re tuning in for a full episode or a quick Powerback® session, you’ll walk away with the confidence and clarity to stop fighting yourself and start going for it.
Desire drives you, but gutsy? That’s what gets it done.

265: How ADHD affects productivity, identity, and self-trust with Skye Waterson
ADHD isn’t just about focus or forgetfulness—it affects how you see yourself, your energy levels, your worth, and your ability to follow through. And if you’ve ever asked yourself “Why can’t I just do the thing?”, this episode will resonate deeply.
LauraAura is joined by ADHD coach and founder of Unconventional Minds, Skye Waterson, for an honest, insightful, and incredibly validating conversation about how ADHD impacts everything from productivity to personal identity. You’ll walk away with powerful reframes, self-trust tools, and a reminder that you’re not lazy—you’re wired differently.
If you’ve ever felt frustrated by your own brain or wished you could just “get it together,” this episode will offer you both compassion and tangible shifts.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What ADHD really looks like (and why it’s often misunderstood)
- The emotional impact of ADHD on high-achieving women
- Why traditional productivity hacks don’t work for neurodivergent minds
- How to build systems and rhythms that actually support your brain
- How to stop measuring your worth by your output
- Why your self-talk matters more than any planner
Featured Guest: Skye Waterson
