So you’re having trouble paying attention - scrolling has replaced daydreaming, TikTok has replaced reading a book or watching a movie, and focusing on anything for a long time feels hard. If deleting all digital distraction from your life isn’t an option, what steps can you take right now to fix it?

In this three-part feature series, The Briefing dives deep into what has happened to make us all feel so distracted, why it matters, and what you can do about it. In this episode, Jan Fran speaks with Jocelyn Brewer, psychologist, writer and educator, and Adam Guastella, Professor of neurodevelopment at the University of Sydney.
