Notion anxiety is real

(and it’s not your fault)

Does opening a blank Notion page feel like a personal attack?

You’re not “bad at organising”. You’re looking at a tool with a million options and no starting line. Let’s reduce the noise, set up a clear first step, and build a system that feels calmer.

I build Notion workspaces for small business owners who want less mental load and more follow-through.

What Notion anxiety actually looks like

  • You open Notion, stare at it, and close it again.
  • You spend ages picking icons, covers, and layouts instead of doing the task.
  • You build a dashboard, then avoid it because it feels too busy.
  • You have loads of pages, but nothing feels easy to find.
  • You feel guilty because “everyone else loves Notion”.

The three killers of ADHD productivity in Notion

  • The blank page effect: too many ways to start.
  • Aesthetic distraction: customising becomes procrastination.
  • Dashboard overwhelm: too much on screen means your brain tunes it out.

When Notion feels too much…

If Notion is making you feel worse instead of better, let’s fix that.
