If you’ve noticed during the pandemic that you have brain fog, that you can’t read, or concentrate, you are not alone. Many people are struggling with this loss of focus – and Tara's guest on the podcast today says that’s been years in the making. He argues that our attention did not just collapse – that it was stolen from us – and that this development has major implications for society. New York Times bestselling author Johann Hari is here to talk about his new title, Stolen Focus: Why You Can’t Pay Attention and How to Think Deeply Again. In it, Hari outlines twelve forces that have reduced our ability to focus – and many of them will surprise you.
