Many years ago, I introduced a new format that alongside our regular episodes called “Lessons for Hannah.” Hannah is my daughter and one of the main inspirations for the Misfit Entrepreneur. I wanted to have a place where she could go and learn from her daddy and his Misfit friends throughout her life….even after I am gone. If you haven’t listened to the first episode of "Lessons for Hannah," I urge you to as it gives some more background and tells the amazing story of how Hannah came to be in our lives.

Lessons for Hannah are short, very useful, and sometimes comical lessons, that I want to share with you and give to Hannah to help in your lives. Because I want Hannah to have these for her life, I’m going to speak as though I am talking directly to her. These episodes are a lot of fun and if you think there is a lesson that we should include in these episodes, please don’t hesitate to send it over to us at support@misfitentrepreneur.com. We’d love to share it.

This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Charles Byrd. If you’ve ever wanted to scale your business without spending a fortune on ads—and do it while building powerful, lasting relationships—Charles is the guy you want to learn from.

Charles started his career in Silicon Valley as a director at a billion-dollar software company, where he earned the nickname “The Chaos Killer” for his ability to simplify and streamline complex projects. But despite his success, he felt the pull to do something more impactful—and live life on his own terms.

So he walked away and launched his own productivity course. The twist? He didn’t just build a course—he built a system for marketing and scaling it through joint ventures. In fact, Charles became so effective at booking JV promotions—2 to 6 per week consistently—that entrepreneurs and companies began hiring him to teach them his signature approach.

Today, Charles is one of the most sought-after experts on joint venture partnerships and referral marketing, helping business owners grow faster, create leveraged income, and build rock-solid systems to scale.

This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Skye Waterson. If you’ve ever struggled with traditional productivity systems or felt like your brain just doesn’t fit the mold, Skye’s story and work will be a game-changer. She’s the founder of Unconventional Organisation, an ADHD support and coaching service designed to help entrepreneurs and executives build focused, sustainable success—without burnout.

Diagnosed with ADHD while completing her PhD, Skye realized that the usual productivity advice wasn’t built for minds like hers. So she created her own framework—one that now powers the systems used by over 82,000 professionals who follow her work. Her podcast The ADHD Skills Lab has over 200,000 downloads, and her web articles have reached more than a quarter million readers.
​
Skye’s belief is that ADHD isn’t a flaw to overcome—it’s a different operating system that, when properly supported, can be a massive asset. And through her work with founders, executives, and creatives, she’s helping people rewire their approach to focus, consistency, and scale.
