Whether it’s revising for exams, juggling work deadlines, or trying to stay on top of an endless to-do list, we all know how difficult it can be to stay productive without burning out. So how can we work with our brains instead of against them?
This week we speak to neuroscientist and bestselling author Dean Burnett about the science of productivity. We explore the surprising benefits of stress, the truth about multitasking, and why 4am routines aren’t for everyone. We also discuss how our brains respond to pressure, why maths and numbers can sometimes feel intimidating, and offer practical tips on how you can build healthier, more sustainable ways of working.
