πŸ‘¨‍πŸ’» Helping Kai Build His First Front-End App It’s been a few weeks since my last post with Kai. We’ve been heads-down coding together, and instead of just talking about database security, we started building a working front end for his application.

It’s not just about being “bad with money.” ADHD affects how we make decisions, process consequences, and handle stress. Here’s what ADHD and money looks like for me: I once gave away my phone to someone who needed it… and forgot to cancel the bill. It cost me thousands . I’ve bought gadgets on a whim, convinced they’d change my life, only for them to gather dust. I’ve missed payments, not because I didn’t have the money—but because I forgot the due date. I’ve signed up to trials and subscriptions I forgot to cancel. I’ve had months where I lived like a millionaire, followed by months where I ...
