Focus in the Digital Age – Ways to Improve Focus (Even for ADHD Girlies)

Let’s be real, staying focused in 2025 is hard. Between the endless scroll, constant notifications, and a to-do list that never seems to end, it can feel impossible to concentrate (especially if your brain already feels like 50 tabs are open at once 🙃). In this episode, we’re joined by returning guest and neuroscience guru, Alexis Fernandez-Preiksa, author, speaker, and host of Do You Fcking Mind?* to unpack what’s really going on in our brains when we struggle to focus. From the science behind attention and distraction to Alexis’ go-to hacks for better concentration, we explore whether focus is something you’re born with or can train like a muscle, how social media is really impacting our brains, and the sneaky habits that could be sabotaging your ability to concentrate. We also dive into why movement, sleep, and timing matter more than you might think. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by your own attention span, or just want to feel more clear-headed in your day-to-day, this episode is packed with practical tools and insight.
