Description
The Spacemakers is a podcast to help you reclaim your time and make space for what really matters.
Hosted by award-winning author and TEDx speaker Daniel Sih, alongside co-host Matt Bain, we explore practical ways to shape a meaningful life by doing less, not more.
This inaugural season tackles "The Fracturing of Our Attention and How To Reclaim Your Focus".
From phone distractions to burnout, we’ll delve into why we’re losing our ability to concentrate and provide practical strategies to reclaim our focus muscles.
Over a 10-part series, Daniel and Matt, along with special guests, will journey through the topics:
• Why can't we watch a movie without grabbing our phones?
• What's pushing us toward burnout?
• What do tinnitus sufferers have to teach us about the power of the mind, and how is the internet reshaping our brains?
• What's the toll of silence deprivation on our ability to solve problems?
• How might our widespread adoption of MS Teams and Slack be hindering our focus at work?
• And most importantly, what practical steps can we take to retrain our minds to concentrate on what truly matters, for our health, relationships, and quality of life.
The goal is simple – to leave you with more space to focus on what really matters in work and life.
