Ever wonder why some of your best ideas come when your mind refuses to sit still? Productivity coach and author Alan P. Brown argues that ADHD isn't just a challenge; it can be a hidden advantage when you learn how to harness it.

From understanding how your brain truly works to mastering evidence-based "brain scaffolding" and simple focus hacks, Alan shares how he turned distraction into one of his greatest assets.

In this encore episode, you'll learn how to quiet mental noise, use your natural bursts of focus, and build systems that work with your brain, not against it. Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD or just feel constantly pulled in every direction, this episode will help you reclaim control, find flow, and unlock your true productivity potential.
