ADHD-Friendly Goal Setting with Chris Wang

Hey team!

Well, it's 2025…. It doesn't quite feel real yet; I mean, we're a quarter of the way into the 21st century, but it feels like we got here fast. I'm not quite sure I'm ready, but regardless, time marches on.

I know a lot of you are working on making plans for the year, so we're going to be starting this year with Chris Wang, CEO and co-founder of Shimmer, an ADHD coaching platform designed to meet people where they are. I had a lot of fun in this conversation, where we covered a bunch of stuff about goal setting and how to make sure you're doing the important stuff in your life. Along the way, we discuss the power of community, process-oriented goal setting, and what it means to live in alignment with your values.

Of course we also discuss Chris's coaching platform, Shimmer, but Chris does a great job bringing a lot of actionable advice to this conversation, so whether you're looking for coaching or just want some extra tips to help with planning this episode's got you covered.

This Episode's Top Tips

1. Work on setting process-oriented goals where your focus is on the actions you can control, like "exercise 3 times a week," rather than outcome-based goals like "lose 10 pounds."
2. Make sure you are specific and write your to-do lists with clear, actionable steps to avoid overwhelm and decision paralysis. You want to know exactly what your next step is when looking at your to-do list.
3. Leverage your support systems. You can use community and coaching to provide accountability, remove roadblocks, and refine your systems. Remember there is no gold star for toughing it out by yourself and it's okay to get help.
