Im a lawyer, not a doctor, a lifelong learner, and a certified ADHD coach. Im on a mission to change the conversation around ADHD because I believe its time to focus on the strengths that come with our unique brains. When I was diagnosed eight months after my son, my entire life finally made sense, yet all I read and heard about ADHD focused on what I should struggle with. What I discovered, though, was that my ADHD was responsible for some of my greatest strengths.**Another thing we constantly hear is all the success stories about ADHD men, but no one talks about the women. This podcast is here to change that. ADHD women are my people, and Im here to acknowledge, support, and cheer them on.

Episode 378
Wednesday, 1 April, 2026
Tired of ADHD strategies that don’t work? Here’s what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____What happens when someone who helped build attention-grabbing tech decides to help people get their focus back?Dr. Nodira Khoussainova is the CEO and co-founder of Focused Space, a body doubling platform for creatives, business owners, artists, and freelancers, many of whom are neurodivergent. Before Focused Space, she was an early co-founder at Streamlit and led the experimentation team at Twitter.She built her career in high-performance tech, but focus was still a struggle. It was only after building Focused Space and working closely with neurodivergent women that she began to see those challenges differently.That shift changed how she understood the problem. It was not laziness or lack of ambition. It was attention, task initiation, and the environments people are expected to work in. After years spent helping build systems designed to keep people scrolling, she began building the opposite.In this episode, we talk about how tech platforms are built to capture attention, why body doubling works, what makes Focused Space different, and why joy is part of what helps people move.Resources:Website: https://www.focused.space/ (use smartass for code)Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/focused_spaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nodira-khoussainova-74540267 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/focused.space.inc Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.
