Episode 337: Jeff Karp: Breaking Patterns, Achieving Enhanced Mental Performance, & Creativity In a Distracted World
Descripción del Episodio
Being diagnosed with something like ADHD can feel like you’re carrying a huge sign that says “I can’t focus”. And in a world that’s not built to accommodate neurodiversity, achieving your dreams can feel impossible. So how do you work with your neurodivergence to create a life full of success?
In this episode of Habits & Hustle, I’m joined by Jeff Karp, PhD as we discuss the challenges of not being diagnosed with ADHD until 7th grade while being determined to not be held back at school. He also shares his story of becoming an esteemed academic in an academic world that didn't suit him and what that taught him about the power of determination and perseverance.
We also discuss methods to managing distractions in a world built to distract us, the profound personal evolution that hit through COVID, and how to break the negative patterns that no longer serve us.
Jeff Karp is a Harvard Medical School professor with a PhD in biomedical engineering at Toronto and did a postdoc in biomaterials at MIT. Diagnosed with ADHD and learning differences in 7th grade, he defied expectations through unwavering perseverance and determination. His lab, The Karp Lab, works on innovative projects like creating an adhesive to repair hearts.
