Intro

Waiting until the last-minute panic hits to finally get things done? In this episode, Dr. Kourosh Dini explores why urgency isn’t the only way to activate focus with ADHD. Learn how using pause, play, interest, and agency can replace force-based productivity with something more sustainable and self-trusting. Press play to discover a calmer, connected, and more intuitive way to engage with your work and your life.
 
 What to expect in this episode:

●     Why the pause helps emotions crystallize into clearer thinking and better decisions

●     How a one-breath “visit” can reduce avoidance and rebuild self-trust 

●     What PINCH motivators (play, interest, novelty, and connection) do for ADHD brains that urgency cannot

●     How supporting autonomy strengthens agency and authentic engagement that lasts , especially for teens and young adults
 
 

About  Kourosh Dini, MD
Dr. Kourosh helps “wandering minds” such as creatives, the anxious, and those with ADHD move from feeling like they have to force themselves to work toward engaging at their own pace while still meeting deadlines. Having navigated his own challenges with focus and productivity, he developed an approach that allows work to feel genuine, meaningful, and even playful. As a psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, musician, father, and husband, he now teaches his students and clients how to build sustainable focus rooted in agency rather than urgency.
