  • Why You Can’t Focus Anymore (And What Actually Helps) with Dr. Zelana Montminy
    Jan 15 2026

    If you feel like your ability to focus has completely disappeared lately - you’re not imagining it.

    If your attention span feels shorter, your mind feels scattered, or you’re constantly jumping from one thing to the next without ever feeling done… you’re not alone.

    And no - it’s not because you’re lazy, broken, or “bad at focus.”

    In today’s episode, we’re talking about why focusing feels harder than ever, what’s actually happening inside our brains, and how we can begin to reclaim our attention without burning ourselves out in the process.

    I’m joined by renowned behavioural scientist Dr. Zilana Montminy, author of Finding Focus: Own Your Attention in an Age of Distraction.

    Together, we explore why so many of us feel constantly behind, scattered, and mentally exhausted - and what we can actually do about it.

    In this episode, we explore:

    ✔️ Why it feels harder than ever to focus (and why it’s not your fault)
    ✔️ The real reason multitasking is draining your energy and attention
    ✔️ How constant distraction quietly erodes our sense of meaning and presence
    ✔️ The difference between attention, concentration, and focus, and why it matters
    ✔️ Why urgency culture keeps us stuck in survival mode
    ✔️ How boundaries protect your energy more than motivation ever could
    ✔️ Why focus isn’t about discipline — it’s about design
    ✔️ Small, realistic ways to rebuild your attention without overwhelm

    As always, feel free to email me at info@kylebuchanan.ca for any questions or topics you'd like to see covered on this show.

  • Why Doing Less Might Be the Shortcut You Need
    Nov 20 2025

    Why less can actually be more — and why your brain rarely lets you see it. . . .

    Today we’re taking on a really interesting study that revealed how our brains like to solve problems, and why our brains can default to adding more instead of taking away.

    If you feel guilty slowing down, or if your default is to add one more thing to “fix” something in your life, this little pep talk is for you.

    We’re Covering:
    ✔️ What this addition bias (of sorts) is
    ✔️ The study (published in Nature) that shows we overlook subtraction
    ✔️ How this bias sneaks into your routines, relationships, calendar, and health habits
    ✔️ Why doing less can unlock clarity, creativity, and energy
    ✔️ How overthinking drains your cognitive resources
    ✔️ A practical reframe to help you remove instead of pile on

    If you’ve been pushing, forcing, overthinking, or trying to out-work your overwhelm - today's episode is for you.
