The Attention Span Doctor: Stop Doing This At Work, It Costs You 2 Hours A Day! | Dr Sahar Yousef

Are you trapped in a cycle of digital distraction, and brain fog despite working harder than ever? Dr. Sahar Yousef reveals how to take back control of your attention, stop digital addiction, and unlock your true cognitive potential. Dr. Sahar Yousef is a renowned cognitive neuroscientist, professor at UC Berkeley, and the founder of the Becoming Superhuman Lab. She specializes in cognitive neuroplasticity, human performance, and optimizing the biological operating systems of the brain. Her ground-breaking research focuses on building practical frameworks that help high-performers achieve extreme focus, strategic automaticity, and deep workflow mastery without burning out. Join Steven and Dr Sahar Yousef for the first ever live streamed DOAC Workshop, and apply now at https://doacworkshops.com/. In this episode, she explains: ■ The Attention Trap: Technology platforms are deliberately engineered by behavioral neuroscientists to maximize engagement and exploit your brain's survival wiring rather than support your productivity. ■ The Grayscale Hack: Switching your phone's color to grayscale significantly reduces neurological stimulation and can instantly reclaim hours of your scrolling every single week. ■ The Focus Sprint: Breaking your major goals down into granular execution lists with strict time blocking allows you to leverage anticipatory brain networks and double your output. ■ The Myth of Multitasking: Task-switching creates severe attentional baggage that drains your cognitive energy and makes you up to 60% slower than monotasking. ■ The Power of Boredom: Why allowing your mind to wander is the vital mechanism that activates neural network problem-solving and produces your best creative insights.

Shift debt to 0% while you can! | Car Finance update | ISA & inheritance tax

Martin’s leading this week’s podcast with an urgent warning for anyone carrying credit card: now is the time to act. He explains why he's concerned the top deals could get worse, runs through how balance transfers work, reveals the best options currently available, shares tips to maximise your chances of acceptance, and looks at when a loan may beat a credit card solution. If you're paying interest on existing debt, this is a must-listen guide to cutting costs and taking control. Martin also has an update on Car Finance Mis-selling. After months of waiting, there’s finally a key date in the diary for the next stage of the process. With millions potentially affected, he explains what happens next, what it means for consumers, and what you should be doing now. Plus, this week’s Tell Us asks: what have you quietly hidden, downplayed, or conveniently forgotten to mention to a partner, child or parent that cost a little more than expected? The responses range from scuba gear splurges and secret spending pacts to one particularly memorable hidden horse, complete with some excellent puns. Then it's time for Mastermind, where Martin tackles a common inheritance tax question: do ISAs count towards your estate? Along the way, for reasons that will become apparent, you'll also get to hear his unexpected Dumbledore impression. And to round things off, Martin reveals why he's been getting some stick from an Olympian. If you want to ask Martin a question, you now can! His Question Time podcast lets you ask Martin absolutely anything and everything (within reason!). So, if you’ve always wanted to know what he likes in his full English breakfast, what his thermostat’s set to, or you have a very complicated question about your finances, email it to MartinLewisPodcast@bbc.co.uk.
