The Drop In CEO Deb Coviello Plays "Poppins" for Clients
That episode title reads like the headline of a possible profile on Deborah Coviello, aka The Drop In CEO.

“Just FOCUS!” and other myths about ADHD & Creativity with Liz Bennett
We are what we are, and what we are needs no excuses! Being an artist with ADHD is one thing; having ADHD as your personal hyperfocus adds a whole new dimension to the experience.

A play-by-ear pianist, Liz creates rap-style songs delivering rapid-fire lyrics courtesy of a racing mind. They range from the witty to the heavily dramatic, and are a beau...
