Cindy Baker: From Scroll Breaks to Focused Sprints — Beating ADHD Overwhelm with Productivity Power
About this episode
What if the thing holding you back isn’t time—but focus?
In this episode of Direct Or Detour, I sit down with Cindy Baker, Productivity Coach, Speaker, and founder of Cindy Baker Coaching. After a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, Cindy realized she wasn’t just procrastinating—she was unknowingly trading her dreams for distraction. Now, she teaches entrepreneurs how to manage their focus, not their time, using ADHD-friendly strategies that work for every busy brain.
We talk about Cindy’s journey from overwhelmed educator to empowered business owner, why “pills aren’t skills,” and how structure can unlock your creativity and productivity. If you’ve ever struggled with procrastination, digital clutter, or that nagging feeling of being stuck—this episode is for you.
