Episode notes

If you take only one tool

from this whole series, take this one. In Chapter 2 we teach the calm-mind test:

the next time your focus collapses, ask whether your mind was calm or worried. ADHD

attention fails in a calm mind; anxiety attention fails in a worried one. We walk

through how to run it on a single real moment and how to read the signs that point

each way. Simple enough for the middle of a bad afternoon. Educational only - not

medical advice or diagnosis. AI tools were used in the production of this podcast.
