The Founder's Guild (formerly Focus Founders) vs Written Identity

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.

Clarity, Focus and Authenticity

Man soo much of my life has changed since joining Focus Founders. Not only have I learned how to be more efficient in my life AND business, I’ve found my people, my tribe. I feel more aligned than ever and every day is like I’m living in a dream. You may think I’m exaggerating, but I’m not. I’ll take you through my journey into Focus Founders and you can decide by the end if being a part of this kick ass community feels like a good fit 🖤❤️ This part of my journey began on June 11, 2025. I joined the online community and met Bill and Rex within a week. Now I have never been attracted to social media, I used it to stay connected with friends, but I just never understood the point, so I was skeptical of using yet another app. That thought process was turned around fast. Inside the Focus Founders Skool community you’ll find a very simple to use ad free experience and hundreds (almost thousands) of amazing people. The community is advertised to ADHD Solopreneurs and it has attracted some of the most intelligent, wacky, neurospicy minds I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. After being in the community for a month or so I decided to join the paid accelerator ran by Bill Widmer and Rex Loyer, in order to gain clarity and focus around my business. Within two months under their guidance, I landed my first 2 high ticket clients and was well on my way to a 3rd. The only thing that stopped me was a deep love for the FF mission and it’s community. I found a greater sense of purpose in supporting Bill and Rex and what they were creating than I did in my own coaching business. So I started adding more value to the community itself in anyway I knew how and worked my way into becoming Lead Moderator for the online community and Community Lead for Focus Founders as a whole. I started hosting local events here in Austin under the FF name and the more I lean into this movement the more authentic I feel and the more love I’m able to spread. Incredible new people are showing up in our lives every day and I can feel the loving reach extending further and further. Calling it a movement is an understatement, we’re changing the world one day at a time. So if you’re an entrepreneur and desire leading a clear and abundant life surrounded by awesome people. Look no further, you’re one step away from your new home ✨

Such an Empowering Space!

I love being part of this community which values authenticity while also holding space for safely exploring. Frameworks encouraging personal exploration without judgement from ourselves (our worst critics) or others. Alli is funny, raw and so profound

The Village Becomes Your Home

What I love about Written Identity, or "the village" as it is lovingly referred to, is that the founder, Alli, genuinely cares about the people in this group. She isn't looking to grow the village just so she can profit; it's about connection, the writing journey, and being able to express your feelings, no matter how ugly they may feel in the moment. The village is also special because of the amount of support. There is no competition here; only love and cheerleading. Anyone looking to rebuild from a place of sadness, depression or complete devastation will find "Written Identity" a safe place to land and start over. Zero Burnout, zero nervous system overloads here. But having said that, you don't HAVE to be sad/mad/burned out to benefit from the village. Literally anyone who just wants to write but might need prompting or reminders or someone to say "your voice is valid" will also love Written Identity. You can come as you are, and we will love the entirety of you in the village :)

Find Community & Yourself

From the very first prompt to now, this community has been such a beneficial place for me to learn, express and grow. Alli has created a wonderful space and environment to share that feels like a real community despite being all virtual. Written Identity has helped me to step into my purpose and stand true in my identity. Alli’s 1:1 mentorship has also helped me tremendously in my pursuit of writing professionally. Her insight and knowledge has been an asset to my growth. If you’re looking for a sense of community and an introspective approach to writing and finding your voice, this is the place to be!
