269 - Gamifying Your Business with Paul Pape Nov 02, 2026

Show notes

I'm a huge fan of gamifying as an effective way for adults with ADHD to get stuff done. And in this episode I'm talking with Paul Pape of www.GamifyBusiness.com on how we can do that to understand our businesses. Really fun chat, and if you are any kind of a gamer person, you'll love what Paul is doing.

About Paul: I've spent 20 years building a creative business. Now I translate what I learned into a language creative minds actually understand.

I take confusing business practices—the stuff that makes creative people's eyes glaze over—and I translate them into gaming themes and terminology. Character classes instead of customer personas. Quest lines instead of project plans. Party composition instead of team building. Same wisdom. Different language.

Because the problem was never that creatives can't do business. The problem was that business was never translated for the way they think.
