290. Why You Can’t Focus (And How to Come Back to Yourself) with Katie Stoddart
Why do high achievers struggle so much with focus… even when they’re capable of doing so much?
In this insightful, relatable, and empowering episode of the High Vibin’ It Podcast, Kelsey Aida and Lynnsey Robinson sit down with focus and performance coach Katie Stoddart (also known as The Focus Bee) to explore the deeper reasons behind distraction, overthinking, and burnout — especially for ambitious, high-achieving individuals.
Katie shares how many people tie their self-worth to achievement, which can lead to overwhelm, scattered energy, and a constant pressure to prove themselves. Together, they unpack how this mindset impacts focus, productivity, and emotional well-being, and how shifting into a more growth-oriented, process-focused mindset can create both success and inner peace.
From perfectionism and fear of failure to resistance, alignment, and sustainable productivity, this episode offers a grounded and practical approach to doing less — but better.
