This episode is for anyone who ends the day wondering how they were busy for eight hours yet somehow still have a full to do list.

Our attention is constantly pulled in every direction, and sustaining focus has become one of the most valuable executive functioning skills we have. Today I break down what gets in the way of deep focus and how to make attention feel easier, not heavier.

You will learn how to identify your biggest distractions, why your personal patterns matter, and how to choose one simple habit that can improve your focus within two weeks.

Whether your interruptions come from students, colleagues, devices or your own thoughts, these strategies will help you protect your time, your energy and your sense of accomplishment at the end of the day.
