ADHD in Construction: Why You’re Busy but Still Behind (w/ Skye Waterson)

Busy all day but still behind? For a lot of construction business owners, the problem isn’t effort — it’s executive function. In this episode, Skye Waterson (ADHD strategist, Unconventional Organization) breaks down why sharp, hardworking contractors can thrive in chaos… but stay stuck in chaos as the business grows. We talk ADHD symptoms in trades, why transitions (site → admin → client calls) drain your brain, and the real reason “good systems” don’t get used. Skye shares practical strategies like batching, boundary-setting, and a simple prioritization filter that helps you separate what’s truly urgent from everything else. You’ll also hear why “more software” usually isn’t the answer — and why simplicity is what actually scales for contractors juggling 10 hats: quoting, invoicing, job costing, hiring, follow-ups, and team communication. 👉 Learn more about Jobtable: https://www.jobtable.com Subscribe for weekly conversations with real contractors building smarter, more profitable construction businesses.
