In this episode, Dr. K breaks down why ADHD can quietly erode relationships—and why it's still fixable once you can see the pattern. He opens with bleak data (most partners report ADHD significantly harms the relationship and that they feel forced to “compensate”), then reframes those stats as useful: patterns are predictable, and predictable means preventable. The core issue he names is symptomatic misperception—a neurotypical partner interprets ADHD behaviors (forgetting, distractibility, missed plans) as “you don't care,” creating an emotional injury on top of the practical problem. From there, he explains how many people with ADHD develop dysfunctional adaptations (like masking, shutting down emotionally, or avoiding commitments) to avoid conflict, but those coping strategies create new damage. He offers a repair approach: map the recurring behavior → identify what emotion you're trying to avoid in your partner (often disappointment) → build a shared plan to tolerate and address that emotion without avoidance. He closes by highlighting pragmatic communication (turn-taking, not interrupting, tracking topics, nonverbal cues) as a common ADHD struggle that affects “connectedness,” and points toward couples-based ADHD therapy and skills training as evidence-based ways to improve. Topics covered include: Symptomatic misperception: ADHD symptoms being misread as a lack of care The “two injuries” problem: the practical miss (cake) + the meaning attached to it Dysfunctional adaptations: masking, avoidance, indecision, emotional shutdown A repair map: behavior → what you're preventing → the core emotion → alternative plan Pragmatic communication skills and why ADHD disrupts conversational “flow” HG Coaching : https://bit.ly/46bIkdo Dr. K's Guide to Mental Health: https://bit.ly/44z3Szt HG Memberships : https://bit.ly/3TNoMVf Products & Services : https://bit.ly/44kz7x0 HealthyGamer.GG: https://bit.ly/3ZOopgQ Learn more about your ad choices.

Top Stories for January 10th Publish Date: January 10th PRE-ROLL: Kia Mall of Georgia From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, January 10th and Happy Birthday to Rod Stewart I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Affordability a top concern as lawmakers prepare for Georgia legislative session Srim Academy to host series of free seminars for young parents Christkindl Market drove 77% increase in downtown Lawrenceville visitors All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: EAGLE THEATRE STORY 1: Affordability a top concern as lawmakers prepare for Georgia legislative session When Georgia lawmakers head back to the Capitol next week, it’s all about affordability—or at least that’s the plan. House Speaker Jon Burns isn’t mincing words: “We’re laser-focused on making life affordable,” he said Wednesday, pointing a finger at property taxes for crushing the dream of homeownership. “For too many families, it’s slipping out of reach. We’ve got to fix that.” Meanwhile, Senate Republicans are eyeing income taxes. A committee led by Sen. Blake Tillery wants to nix the 5.19% tax for individuals earning under $50,000 (or $100,000 for couples) and eventually scrap it altogether by 2032. But affordability isn’t just about taxes. Rising medical costs? A mess. The end of federal health insurance subsidies? A looming crisis. Burns says the House will tackle health care, focusing on keeping doctors in Georgia by expanding residency programs. STORY 2: Srim Academy to host series of free seminars for young parents Srim Academy, a Montessori school in Norcross, is kicking off a series of free seminars for young parents—because, let’s face it, parenting is hard. Topics? Everything from potty training and screen time battles to fostering independence and getting kids to actually move their bodies. The first session, “Fostering Your Child’s Independence: Lemonade, Ladybugs and Learning,” happens Saturday, Jan. 31, at 10:30 a.m. at 5511 Williams Road. Expect 90 minutes of practical advice, hands-on activities (think crafts and cooking), and maybe even a few lightbulb moments. Led by Srim’s seasoned faculty and guests from Gwinnett Building Babies’ Brains, it’s all about building confidence—for kids and parents. Bonus: giveaways! Details? Visit www.srimacademy.com or call 678-808-9813. STORY 3: Christkindl Market drove 77% increase in downtown Lawrenceville visitors Lawrenceville’s first year hosting the Atlanta Christkindl Market? A total game-changer. Nearly 371,000 people visited the market during its debut season downtown—more than double the attendance from its Buckhead days, even with fewer open days. And here’s the kicker: 159,500 of those visitors wandered over to the Lawrenceville Square, boosting local restaurants and shops by 77% compared to 2024. Free parking, shuttles, and a glowing Winterlight Walk helped draw crowds, with visitors from 48 states. Downtown businesses saw sales jump 5–30%, and vendors reported 20–30% higher sales than the previous year. The collaboration between the city and Gwinnett County was key, with County Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson adding, “This event showed what’s possible when partnerships thrive.” Lawrenceville’s officially on the holiday map. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: 2026 Beer Chaser 5K Registration is open Whether you’re a speed demon or a beer-loving stroller, the Beer Chaser 5K is calling your name. On March 7, Suwanee Town Center Park transforms into a St. Paddy’s Day celebration with a twist—running, sipping, and plenty of green. This isn’t your average 5K. Sure, it’s a Peachtree Road Race qualifier, but it’s also a beer lover’s dream. Choose your adventure: run straight through or stop at five beer stations along the scenic Suwanee Creek Greenway. Each station features a different Georgia brewery, so your taste buds get a workout too. Not into mid-run sips? No worries. Every runner (21+) gets a full beer at the finish line. And the party doesn’t stop there—StillFire Brewing is hosting an after-party with live music, food trucks, and 25 beers on tap. Registration starts at $55 for the straight-through option or $65 if you want those beer stops. Prices go up Feb. 1, so don’t wait. Oh, and don’t forget your festive St. Paddy’s Day gear—there are prizes for best costume, best group, and best kilt. Proceeds benefit Kiwanis Charity, supporting local causes like the North Gwinnett Co-Op and Children’s Healthcare. Details? Head to SuwaneeBeerFest.com/beer-chaser-5k/. STORY 5: Lanier Islands Resort looks back at 2025, forward to an exciting 2026 Lanier Islands Resort just wrapped up a big year—its 50th anniversary—and it’s clear they’re not slowing down anytime soon. Recognized as one of Georgia’s Best Vacation Destinations, the resort is leaning into its legacy while planning some exciting upgrades for 2026. Last year was packed: a new chapel and garden for weddings, a free summer concert series, the return of Magical Nights of Lights, and even a lantern festival that drew 4,500 people. Oh, and they snagged awards from The Knot, WeddingWire, and GolfPass, among others. Looking ahead? A $3 million refresh for Legacy Lodge, a revamped golf clubhouse, and Georgia’s first lighted Par-3 course. Plus, new events like a Fall Songwriter Series. Big things are coming. We’ll be right back. Break 3: GCPL Passport STORY 6: Rep. Andrew Clyde announces 2026 Congressional Art Competition Hey, high school artists in Georgia’s Ninth District—Congressman Andrew Clyde wants *you* to show off your talent in the 2026 Congressional Art Competition.

Anything that reflects North Georgia—think landmarks, industries, or even your school. Accepted mediums include paintings, drawings, mixed media, photography, and more. Just keep it two-dimensional, under 26x26 inches framed, and under 15 pounds. Oh, and no copying or controversial content—this is about originality. Questions? Call Clyde’s Gainesville office at 470-768-6520. Let’s see what you’ve got! STORY 7: Gwinnett Chamber introduces Elevate Business series The Gwinnett Chamber is shaking things up with the launch of the Elevate Business Series (EBS)—a fresh, expanded take on their long-running Small Business Series. Starting in 2026, this revamped program is all about helping small and medium-sized businesses level up with sharper insights, practical strategies, and tools to thrive. Why the change? Simple: demand. Attendance has been climbing, industries are diversifying, and businesses are hungry for deeper, more advanced content. “Elevate reflects how far we’ve come—and where we’re going,” said Megan Lesko, the Chamber’s Senior VP of Membership. The first event? Feb. 24, featuring Media Frenzy CEO Sarah Tourville on strategic communications.

Looking for the Bottleneck Reset Workshop? Click here for details: https://unconventionalorganisation.circle.so/checkout/bottleneck-reset-workshop-wednesday-jan-21stIf you have ADHD, you probably know this pattern. You're foggy, scattered, or stuck… until a deadline hits. Then suddenly, you're laser-focused, productive, unstoppable. And afterwards, you're wrecked. In this episode, Skye and William Curb from Hacking Your ADHD unpack why hyperfocus feels like the only way to get things done, and why it quietly creates more stress, burnout, and long-term chaos than most people realize. Using research on university students, we explore how executive function difficulties change the way ADHD brains access focus, why more ADHD symptoms often lead to more hyperfocus (not less), and why relying on pressure is not a sustainable strategy, even if it looks productive on the surface. This episode is for late-diagnosed adults, professionals, and business owners with ADHD who keep asking themselves: “Why do I only function when everything's urgent?” “And why does it always cost me afterwards?” What we cover:- Why hyperfocus shows up most when things feel critical or overwhelming - How executive function difficulties push ADHD brains into last-minute intensity - The difference between intense focus and sustainable focus - How hyperfocus borrows energy from your future self - What this pattern means for productivity, stress, and burnout long-term P.S. If your ADHD symptoms turn every business day into chaos—unfinished tasks piling up, revenue stuck, systems that don't stick—it's not you. It's your operating system. We help service business owners unblock their next $50-500k with simple systems that focus their brain. Watch this video to see how we do it, then take the program walkthrough.

For many of us, consuming or making art – be it listening to music, playing an instrument, reading a book, painting a watercolour or attending a dance class – is seen as a pastime or hobby, a fun way to spend an evening or Sunday afternoon. But according to the latest scientific thinking, engaging with the arts can have a profound effect on our mental and physical well-being, and may even help us to live longer, healthier lives. In this episode, we're joined by Daisy Fancourt, a professor of psychobiology and epidemiology and head of the Social Biobehavioural Research Group at University College London, to talk about her latest book, Art Cure – The Science of How the Arts Transform Our Health. She tells us what happens in our brains and bodies when we make, perform or interact with art, how engaging with the arts may even have a beneficial effect our genes, and how medical professionals are increasingly prescribing art therapies to improve our overall health in almost every way, whether you're three years old or 103.

What if prosecuting innovative Bitcoin developers like Rodriguez and Burroughs signals the death of American entrepreneurship? In this episode, I read Beautyon's "American Bitcoin Suicide" and dive into how activist judges and unchecked fraud are killing innovation - could building decentralized tools like Bitcoin and Nostr be our only way to fight back and save the country's future? After ranting on all this, I wanted to point you to a few things I referenced - they've helped shape my thoughts, and I think you'll get a lot out of them too: The audiobook I did for "Bitcoin, the Ultimate Collateral" by the Brains team, a solid guide to Bitcoin fundamentals. Check out HaveIBeenPwned for real-world examples of the identity fraud problems Samourai aimed to fix. That end quote is from Julian Assange's book "Cypherpunks: Freedom and the Future of the Internet" - worth a read if you're into privacy battles.

What if today's most powerful AI systems are closer to a free-floating hippocampus than to a thinking mind? We dive into the messy borderlands between neuroscience, semiotics, and political economy to ask what LLMs really do, why they feel authoritative, and where their limits begin. Along the way, we explore how humans negotiate meaning in real time while models operate in a frozen field of correlations, why that matters for education and writing, and how the surveillance stack turns our lives into tidy sequences for machines to memorize.Together with our guest, we unpack grid cells, place cells, and the hippocampus as a vivid analogy for sequence modeling. Then we press on the big claims: can a next-token engine think, or does it merely interpolate? Why do these models stumble on math unless we bolt on tools? And how did the training corpus—heavy with ad copy, business speak, and now model-made text—nudge outputs toward a bland, consensus voice that can be tuned to institutional aims?None of this unfolds in a vacuum. We follow the money to examine power costs, chip monopolies, and a rush to constant capital that favors server farms over genuine productivity gains. The result looks like a bubble stitched to state-capital priorities and fragile cloud infrastructure, not an inevitable march toward “superintelligence.” If planning is back on the table, we argue it needs new objectives: replace the one-size value function with interpretable quotas for health, learning, resilience, and ecological limits, and design cybernetic feedback that respects agency instead of erasing it.Curious about a future where meaning stays alive and tools stay honest?

Donald Trump's approval rating on every issue continues to plummet, as does his support among every demographic, and that has left Fox News hosts in a tough spot to try to spin their way out of it. But they haven't given up. On Friday's episode of The Five, one of the hosts suggested that Trump's low numbers were not only "expected," but they were due to him being a "victim of his own success" because voters hold him to a higher standard than other human beings. These folks' brains are melting in real time.Staffers in the Trump administration don't have a shortage of excuses ready to go for Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's bizarre behavior and nonstop costume play, but they are sick and tired of having to give them out. According to a new report, Trump officials are growing exhausted by Noem's behavior and they are ready for her to be gone from the administration. Reports have previously suggested that Trump wants Noem gone himself, and that she is looking for a way to exit before being fired. The planned bailout for American farmers was supposed to be Donald Trump's way of buying their loyalty for another election cycle, but these farmers have been through this song and dance far too many times now to fall for it. They are now speaking out about being used as "political pawns" by the man that they helped put back in office, and they are tired of being abused over and over again by him. And they aren't the only Trump supporters speaking out about his presidency.The Republican-controlled House of Representatives broke a LOT of really bad records this year, the most obvious of which was presiding over the longest government shutdown in American history. But in addition to that grim milestone, this Congress also passed the fewest number of bills EVER, while also seeing a record number of members announce that they are retiring (most of them being Republicans.) This is officially the most "do-nothing Congress" in history.Joe Rogan was absolutely ecstatic when Donald Trump won the 2024 election, as he had spent months trashing Joe Biden while promoting Trump. But just a year later things are completely different, and Rogan has apparently come to the realization that Trump is an unhinged lunatic who can't do anything right. On his podcast on Friday with guest Shane Gillis, Rogan tore into Trump about multiple recent issues that Trump brought upon himself, including his disgusting response to Rob Reiner's murder. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

In this episode of the Parent Companion for Play Therapy series, I explain how a child's brain works differently from an adult's brain in therapy — and why that difference matters so much. Many parents assume therapy is therapy, but children don't process experiences through logic, language, or abstract thinking the way adults do. I compare adult brains to waffles and children's brains to cooked spaghetti to show how adults can compartmentalize issues, while children experience everything as connected and happening all at once. I walk through why verbal prompts and talk-based therapy work for adults but fail for young children, and how child-centered play therapy matches the way kids actually process experiences. When a child works on one issue in play, it naturally pulls other issues along with it — building momentum and growth across multiple areas at the same time. This episode helps parents understand why CCPT works with children and why play, not talking, is the most effective way for kids to heal and grow.

Jim Jarmusch gained accolades for showing the studio world that a movie can be just as slow, aimless, and infused with deadpan humor as real life—a notion embraced by the likes of Seinfeld, Wes Anderson—and that sometimes foible and folly reveal as much about the human condition as flashy narrative thread.

Video is everywhere, but very little of it is designed with ADHD in mind.In this Research Recap, Skye and William Curb from Hacking Your ADHD unpack a qualitative study exploring how people with ADHD actually experience video content. From captions to pacing to visual overload, they look at what helps, what hurts, and why one size never fits all.They also talk about why many ADHD viewers adapt by speeding up videos, multitasking, or using video as background stimulation, and how those habits make a lot more sense once you understand the research.This is a grounded look at accessibility, attention, and why flexibility matters more than rules when it comes to ADHD and learning.What we coverHow ADHD viewers experience video differentlyWhy captions help some people and frustrate othersThe impact of pacing and playback speed on focusWhy redundancy can improve comprehensionWhat accessibility really means for ADHDIf you want a copy of the research paper discussed in this episode, DM VIDEO to on Instagram to @unconventionalorganisation and we will send it to you.Want more of Will's work?

Loneliness has become a serious epidemic with nearly 60% of American adults saying they were lonely. We know that this can lead to depression, anxiety, and other mental and physical problems. But how does spending less time with others actually affect our brains? In our next episode, Dr. Ben Rein, a social neuroscientist, will reveal how social interaction supports our mental health, strengthens our immune system, and even causes our brains to synchronize with our loved ones.  These and other fascinating details are explored in his new book "Why Brains Need Friends." He will also provide some easy ways to feel better and perhaps even live longer by simply putting down our phones and adding a conversation or a hug to our daily lives.  For more information, transcripts, and all episodes, please visit https://thisisyourbrain.com  For more about Weill Cornell Medicine Neurological Surgery, please visit https://neurosurgery.weillcornell.org

Neuroscientist Nicholas Wright explains why big powers "lose" wars they dominate on the kill ratio—and why counterinsurgencies (Vietnam, Afghanistan, maybe Iraq) reliably punish the side with less at stake. His new book, Warhead: How the Brain Shapes War and War Shapes the Brain, argues that identity, surprise, and revenge are ancient brain features, while metacognition—the mind watching itself—can be the thin guardrail against strategic self-harm. Along the way: post-1945 German polling as a reminder that political "reconstruction" happens on a years-long timetable, not on an American attention span. Plus, a Trump "warrior dividend" of $1,776 per service member—tariffs funding patriotism, one numerology check at a time.

Qatar controls foreign policy, while Big Tech controls domestic policy. I begin with a roundup of the latest news on the terrorism front, a breakdown of the terrible stagflation numbers, and Ron DeSantis leading the fight against the AI slop agenda. Next, we're joined by Miriam Eckenfels, who covers wireless technology issues for Children's Health Defense, for a discussion about the FCC rule attempting to block states from regulating any placement of 5G and wireless infrastructure from the telecoms industry. Just as with data centers, the Trump administration is trying to build the infrastructure for both the surveillance state and the techno-feudalism that make us at one with harmful technology. Eckenfels demonstrates how this technology is not necessary for connectivity and rapid internet usage. At the same time, the high-frequency radio waves are so much more harmful, and the more they push everything toward 5G, the more the densification of the infrastructure will harm the quality of life of our neighborhoods as well as out health.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Over the past several years, "Havana Syndrome" has been recognized as a form of psychological warfare through covert technologies. A congressional committee has submitted criminal referrals to the DOJ regarding the intelligence community's handling of Havana Syndrome. Scientists warn that mind-altering brain weapons, which can control your perception, memory, and behavior, are closer to reality than ever. These technologies are hidden, allow for tracking and monitoring, and can be used as psychological weapons. Implanted devices can cause adverse health effects. Furthermore, the risks posed by neural data collected by brain-computer interfaces have led to the Management of Individuals' Neural Data Act of 2025, or MIND Act, being introduced in Congress this Fall. Tonight, Jeremy Scott fills in for Clyde Lewis and talks with mind control technologies researcher and author, Dr. John Hall, and host of Curious Realm, Christopher Jordan.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 3: 5:05pm- Daniel Turner—Founder and Executive Director of Power the Future—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to recap President Donald Trump's speech in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania. Are the president's policies leading to lower energy prices? 5:30pm- Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath—Neuroscientist, Educator, & Best-Selling Author—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest essay for The Free Press, “We Gave Students Laptops and Took Away Their Brains.” Dr. Horvath responds to claims that “our children are less cognitively capable than we were at their age”—noting that “starting around the year 2000, something changed. For the first time in the history of standardized cognitive measurement, Generation Z is consistently scoring lower than their parents on many key measures of cognitive development—from literacy and numeracy to deep creativity and general IQ. And the early data from Generation Alpha (born after 2012) suggests the downturn isn't slowing—it's accelerating.” So, what's to blame? “The tools we are using.” He has conducted research and taught at Harvard University and Harvard Medical School. You can read the full article here: https://www.thefp.com/p/we-gave-students-laptops-and-took.
