Hijacked Mind: Reclaim Your Power in the Age of Distraction with Dr. Zelana Montminy
We live in the most distracted generation the world has ever seen. Our attention is constantly fractured — pulled between devices, endless notifications, and the pressure to always be “on.” The result? We feel scattered, disconnected, and lonelier than ever, even as we chase more ways to stay connected. But there is another way forward.
In this episode of HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Zelana Montminy — renowned behavioral scientist, bestselling author, and one of Maria Shriver’s Architects of Change — for a powerful conversation on how to reclaim your attention in a world built to distract you. Drawing from her extensive work and upcoming book Finding Focus: Owning Your Attention in the Age of Distraction, she reveals the myths behind multitasking, the hidden toll of digital clutter, and why our constant chase for quick dopamine leaves us more depleted than fulfilled.
We also explore how distraction has become the pacifier we use to avoid discomfort, and why returning to the fundamentals — sleep, nutrition, presence, and intentional rest — creates the foundation for true resilience and growth. With her unique blend of science, psychology, and holistic wisdom, Dr. Zelana offers a practical roadmap for finding clarity in the noise and remembering what it feels like to be fully present.
