Flow, Mindfulness, and the Secret to Better Remote Work

In episode 128 we sit down with Dr. Wladislaw Rivkin, Professor of Organizational Behavior at Trinity College Dublin, to discuss new research on how remote workers can protect their focus, reduce interruptions, and improve well-being. Dr. Rivkin explains two powerful tools for maintaining attention while working from home: flow and mindfulness. We talk about why flow helps people naturally tune out distractions, why mindfulness can serve as a reliable backup when flow doesn’t happen, and how a brief morning mindfulness practice may help workers stay focused throughout the day.
