The Dopamine Episode (aka Why You Can’t Concentrate Like You Used To)

Yes, you're right. You can’t concentrate like you used to. And it’s not because you’re lazy, or inherently flawed, or because you need a colour-coded planner.

But it could be your dopamine.

In this week's episode, I'm breaking down:

What dopamine actually does for your brain (hint: it’s not just about feeling good)
Why your phone is draining your brain juice
Why your morning scroll tanks your ability to focus later (it's not why you think)
Why you can’t just “discipline” your way out of feeling foggy
And how understanding dopamine can help you work better without doing a total business overhaul or becoming a Pomodoro monk.

There’s a lemon analogy. There’s a deer-hunting metaphor. There’s unqualified science chat.

This one’s for you if:
✨ You keep asking “Why can’t I just do the thing?”
✨ You’ve noticed your brain feels foggier, more distracted, and weirdly resistant
✨ You want your focus (and motivation) back—without needing a digital detox retreat in the Alps

🎧 Hit play and don’t squeeze your lemons too hard.
