Building a Business That FITS Your Life with Lauren Tilden

What does it really take to build a small business, especially when your brain doesn’t fit the traditional mold?

In this episode of Voted Least Likely, I am sitting down with entrepreneur, marketer, and podcast host, Lauren Tilden for an honest conversation about the behind-the-scenes challenges of running a business, navigating late ADHD diagnosis, and learning how to work with your brain instead of against it.

Lauren shares her journey of being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, how it reshaped the way she approaches her work, and the systems she’s put in place to support herself as a business owner.

Together,  we dive into why clarity-- around the life you want and the business you’re building-- is one of the most important (and often overlooked) foundations of long-term success.

This episode is a reminder that there’s no one “right” way to build a business—and that success looks different when you define it on your own terms.

In This Episode, We Talk About:

-The realities and growing pains of building a small business

-Lauren’s ADHD diagnosis and how it changed her relationship with work

-Why clarity around your desired lifestyle matters just as much as revenue goals

-Designing a business that supports your energy, values, and season of life

-Letting go of expectations and building sustainably

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by entrepreneurship or wondered why traditional productivity advice doesn't seem to work, this episode is for you.
