THE TRAVIS MACY SHOW

192. Cognitive Design for ADHD, High Sensitivity, and More with Amber Hanna


Listen Later

Do you know your cognitive profile? Amber Hanna, a cognitive design consultant who’s helped me personally in ways I’m really grateful for. Amber specializes in using neuro regulation techniques—like meditation, exercise, and creating personalized environments—to help people manage ADHD, high sensitivity, and other neurodivergent conditions. In this episode, we talk about the importance of creating a supportive environment tailored to your needs, the significance of setting boundaries, and how to use sensory cues to minimize stress and maximize comfort.

Amber also dives into the value of understanding neurodiversity, and we discuss how these techniques help people find better mental well-being, productivity, and balance. I share a few takeaways from my work with Amber—like reframing periods of boredom, diving into those “boring” tasks with a new perspective, and going all-in on recovery strategies. If you’re looking for ways to improve your self-care, create a more mindful environment, or manage your mental well-being, this episode is full of great insights.

Enjoy the conversation, and check out Amber’s website, cocoonedliving.com, for more resources and consultative services!
