Learn how to harness your ADHD, master flow, and scale faster—with half the effort and twice the fun.
Combining timeless principles with the latest neuroscience behind flow, burnout, ADHD, and peak performance, Jamie's Flowjo Formula reinvents the Founder Journey into a fun, exhilarating, and deeply fulfilling adventure. The result? Scaling becomes faster, easier and a whole lot more fun!
In this workshop, Jamie shows founders how to get out of their own way and start flowing towards their goals. His game-changing discovery of Flowjo unlocks the hidden potential in every entrepreneur by channeling their unique cognitive wiring and natural abilities into a powerful competitive edge.# About the Speaker:
Jamie was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and has burnt out three times in his career - once as a tennis player, and twice as a business owner. After researching the connection between ADHD, Burnout, Flow and Peak Performance, Jamie developed a coaching program called Flowjo – helping ADHD entrepreneurs channel their unique cognitive wiring and start flowing towards their goals.
Over the past 13 years, Jamie has helped 400+ entrepreneurs successfully exit their businesses and supported many more with growth, clarity, and momentum.
He is the author of The Pressure Gauge Mindset and the founder of Dealflow (M&A firm), Exitplanr (consulting firm), and DKAccelerator (a government-backed accelerator program).
Jamie is also a certified ADHD coach and holds a PCC-level credential with the International Coaching Federation.
