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.
