    <description>Speak Easy is the podcast where we discuss communication, productivity systems, capturing our thoughts, and how we share those thoughts with our future selves and others. Managing our brains is core to 21st century work and we're here to learn how to do it better than we did yesterday.
Speak Easy is brought to you by Cleft, the easiest way to collect your thoughts. With our cross-platform applications, you can simply capture your ideas wherever you are and paste them where they belong later.</description>

        <![CDATA[<p>Katherine Sanders, a neurodivergent ADHD coach in Scotland, discusses how divergent thinkers struggle with linear productivity systems. She explains that ADHD brains process information differently, often taking "side quests" in thinking.
