You're smart, but your distractibility is telling you otherwise
Manage episode 495107074 series 3529623
We’re not just talking about garden-variety distraction here. This is about the deeper, sneakier kind: the kind that hijacks your focus, derails your day, and makes you question your intelligence (been there).
In this episode, I’m sharing my honest experience with distraction, what actually helps (no shame-based hacks here), and the real reason it’s not your fault, but it might be your beliefs that are getting in your way.
We’ll talk:
Why your attention isn’t a character flaw
The science of boredom and dopamine
How distraction is deeply connected to your physical and emotional state
Why your working memory might be setting you up to forget everything
And how self-awareness is the real secret weapon
Whether you're neurodivergent, menopausal, or just trying to stay sane in a chaotic world, this one’s for you.
