  • Summary

  • ADHD is full of contradictions, and today we're diving into one of the biggest: how can we experience both a lack of focus and extreme focus? In this episode, we'll explore why ADHD brains seem to tune out the world at times and, at others, get completely lost in what’s called hyper-focus.

    If you’ve ever heard "Are you even listening to me?" or struggled with time slipping away while you’re laser-focused, this episode is for you. Martha shares real-life examples, including her own experiences with hyper-focus, why it can be both a superpower and a struggle, and strategies to harness it effectively.

    From the benefits of harnessing hyper-focus for creativity and productivity to the downsides like burnout and time blindness, you'll learn how to balance these extremes. Martha also covers practical strategies—like using timers, external accountability, and environment management—to make hyper-focus work for you.

    If this resonated and you’re ready for more, stay tuned for a bonus episode: "Laziness as the Antidote to Hyperfocus."
