Description
Think something will take 15 minutes? Bet it takes 45.
You’re not lazy - you’ve got ADHD. And you’re probably struggling with time blindness.
In this episode, Skye and Sarah dive deep into three new studies on ADHD and time perception, breaking down the science, the symptoms, and the sneaky ways time blindness sabotages even high performers.
What we cover:
- The 3 time-based skills your brain may be missing
- Time blindness vs. working memory—what’s the real issue?
- The surprising benefit of visual timers (and what the monkey app got right)
- What the research says about the link between time and working memory
If you’ve ever said, “how is it 3pm already?” - this one’s for you.
