What if procrastination wasn’t laziness—and the problem was never you to begin with? In this eye-opening episode, CJ sits down with researcher, educator, and neuroaffirming executive function coach Becca Block to explore what happens when differently wired people stop forcing themselves into systems that were never designed for them.
After her child’s autism diagnosis sparked a deeper understanding of her own neurodivergence, Becca began rethinking productivity, motivation, and attention through an entirely new lens. Today, through her platform Spicy Brains Get Stuff Done, she helps values-driven professionals work with their brains instead of constantly fighting against them.
Together, CJ and Becca unpack procrastination, attention management, sustainable motivation, and the cultural “default settings” that leave so many neurodivergent people exhausted and ashamed. If you’ve ever struggled to stay focused, felt frustrated with your own habits, or wondered why traditional productivity advice never seems to stick, this conversation will help you rethink what success, structure, and self-trust can actually look like.
