Johann Hari is a writer, journalist, and a three-times New York Times Bestselling Author of Stolen Focus, Lost Connections, and Chasing the Scream.

In our conversation we talked about the origins of why our brains are not wired to focus in modern times, the negative costs to us as individuals and society when we can't pay attention, tips & stratgies to regain focus, how to think deeper, and more.
