We’re all chasing productivity—checking boxes, staying busy, getting things done. But what if the very thing we’re using to stay “on top of it all” is actually what’s draining us? In this episode, we’re talking about one powerful way to reclaim your focus: by paying attention to what’s stealing it. Spoiler alert—it might be buzzing in your pocket right now.
