Helps Keep me Focused & Accountable
This is a great community for ADHD Founders. I love the 'Eat That Frog' Sessions where I can show up to work with others, commit to getting something done, and celebrate actually doing the thing I wouldn't probably have done without this community. Bill and Rex are AMAZING! Highly recommended.

Where ADHD Entrepreneurs Actually Build
I joined Focus Founders because I didn’t need more advice—I needed traction and a community that understands how ADHD actually shows up for those of us trying to launch our own businesses. What I found was a group culture that’s generous, direct in a helpful way, and genuinely invested in boosting each other up. The tone is "online family," and the occasional (constructive) competition made it super-easy to show up consistently. I have made more progress toward escaping my 9-5 in the three months since I joined than I did in the previous fifteen years of struggling alone. If you’re an ADHD entrepreneur who wants support that turns into action and a room that feels like real humans supporting one another, then Focus Founders is worth a look.

Really needed
Known Sean for a year or so now. And he has an energy that is really needed for men today. He is coaching me now on how to keep myself accountable and things are going great.

Amazing Supportive Community for Men!
I highly recommend this Community that Sean and the team have put together. I find the space very comforting and supportive and it allows men to engage and interact without the fear of being judged. If you want a place where you want to belong then look no further. Join today!

Grateful to be part of this amazing community!
Being real, genuine, and vulnerable is the bare minimum in the Men Forge Forward. It's such a unique space in which you are celebrated for who you are. You are supported in all your struggles and challenges by a great group of men who are ready to be there for each other regardless of the circumstances at hand. Opening up and being vulnerable is not always easy, but in this community, it feels safe and just right to do so. That is worth a lot and I am so incredibly grateful to be part of it! On top of that, we are learning a lot together, whether it's by sharing our experiences or having fun, this place contributes so much to your personal development, well-being, and happiness in life. Sean being the host of this community makes this a one of a kind community you would love to become part of. By the way Sean is not just the host, he is one of the kindest persons you'll come across on Skool. Let's keep Forging Forward!
