Running a business with ADHD isn’t always sunshine and roses, however, by hiring an ADHD trained personal assistant you could dramatically transform your business.
In this blog post, we discuss what a personal assistant for ADHD is and the top signs that you should consider hiring an ADHD trained personal assistant right now.
What is an ADHD Personal Assistant?
An ADHD personal assistant is somebody who often works remotely and will complete tasks within your business.
A personal assistant can help with anything from general administrative tasks to social media management.

Signs You Need To Hire an ADHD Personal Assistant Right Now
Here are the top signs that you should hire an ADHD virtual assistant.
You Keep Burning Out
One of the biggest signs that you need to hire an ADHD personal assistant is that you are going through consistent cycles of burning out.
Burnout is one of the most challenging symptoms of ADHD and it can massively impact your business.
Hiring a personal assistant doesn’t mean that you’ll never struggle with burnout again, but it will help to reduce the risks to your business if you do.
You Often Feel Overwhelmed
Another common symptom of ADHD is overwhelm paralysis.
Overwhelm paralysis often happens when you have too many things to do on your to-do list but you have no idea where to start.
Virtual assistants can take those tasks off of your to-do list or break them up into smaller, more manageable tasks for you.
You’re Struggling With Procrastination
Although procrastination has become normalised, when you have ADHD, procrastination can be detrimental to your business.
By hiring an ADHD personal assistant, you get your own accountability buddy. This means, there is somebody to encourage you to show up every day.
This was something I always struggled with until I found my own virtual assistant. Having somebody to hold me to deadlines has seriously changed the game for my business.
You Feel Stuck
Finally, if you’re just feeling completely stuck within the business that you have created, it may be time to hire an ADHD personal assistant.

When you hire a virtual assistant, you free up time in your schedule and have more creative energy to grow your business.
