Why Your Team Doesn’t Trust Your Deadlines (ADHD Time Blindness Explained)

Presented by Understood.org
You think it’ll take two days.
Your team knows it’s two weeks.
And after a while, they stop saying anything.
In this episode, Skye and Robert break down why ADHD founders consistently underestimate time, not because they’re overconfident or disorganized, but because their perception of time is genuinely off.
They walk through the research behind time blindness and estimation failure, and how this shows up in real businesses:
• why your timelines feel right when you set them
• why your team starts padding estimates (without telling you)
• how this quietly damages trust and reputation
• why this problem gets worse as you scale
If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly behind - even when you’re trying to be realistic - this will explain why.
