Ever zone out in a meeting and wonder where your brain went? That might be your default mode network. And for people with ADHD, it doesn't always switch off when it should.

Welcome to the first episode in our new Research Recaps series, co-hosted with William Curb from Hacking Your ADHD.

In this series, we’re teaming up to break down recent ADHD studies and translate what the research actually means for your life, your work, and your brain. No jargon. No hype. Just real insight you can use.

This week, we’re diving into a fascinating study on the default mode network, the part of your brain that’s active when you’re “resting.” For ADHD brains, it doesn’t always switch off when it should. We’re talking genetics, CBT, and what all of it has to do with zoning out at 2pm.

What we cover:

  • What the default mode network is, and why ADHD brains get stuck there
  • How CBT might literally change your brain’s connectivity
  • What this study says about genetics and attention
  • Why your brain drifts off (and what that means for productivity)

P.S. If you feel like the bottleneck in your business and life feels like chaos, click here to apply for a call with me. We’ll discuss your struggles and explore systems to support you in growing without the overwhelm.
