Ever feel like your attention span is shrinking by the day? You’re not imagining it. Nearly half of adults report struggling to focus more than they used to — but is this simply the pace of modern life, or are we actively rewiring our brains for distraction? In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of focus, from dopamine-driven digital habits to the rise of shorter, snappier learning content. We also unpack what ADHD really means in the workplace and whether today’s tools are helping us learn or quietly undermining our concentration. Drawing on research-backed insights, you’ll discover practical strategies to sharpen your attention, reduce mental overload, and take back control in a world designed to distract you. If you’ve ever felt pulled in a thousand directions, this episode is for you.

Ever received feedback that made you bristle? The one comment that lingers, outweighing all the positives? Or perhaps you’ve dismissed feedback entirely, convinced that they just don’t get it.

In this episode, we explore why feedback feels so personal — and what’s really happening inside your brain when criticism lands. Drawing on neuroscience and behavioural science, we unpack how feedback can activate the same neural pathways as physical pain, and how cognitive biases quietly shape the way we interpret, distort, or reject input that could help us grow.

From confirmation bias to the Dunning–Kruger effect, we break down the hidden mental shortcuts that turn well-intentioned feedback into friction. More importantly, you’ll learn practical strategies to retrain your response, reduce defensiveness, and turn feedback into a powerful tool for learning, performance, and personal growth.

If you’re ready to stop fearing feedback and start using it as fuel, this episode is for you.

Life feels different—and you’re not imagining it. From the way we work to the way we think, Covid has reshaped the world and quietly reshaped us along with it. As we try to build a new kind of normal, many of us are wondering: Have I changed too much to simply go back? And what am I actually moving towards now?

In this episode, we dig into what’s shifted beneath the surface. We look at the science of cognitive fatigue, explore why younger generations are redefining ambition, success, and connection, and examine how post-pandemic living is challenging the frameworks we once relied on. Most importantly, we talk about the tools we need to navigate a world that’s still finding its feet.

If you’ve been feeling like the old rules don’t quite fit anymore—or you’re trying to understand what your next chapter might look like—this conversation is for you.
