The Brain Chronicle | Do I hear (or... rather... read!) the words... NEW PRODUCER!
Added 2025-02-28 18:00:12 +0000 UTCHello Brains & Hearts!
Oh, look, it’s the end of February. Already. Wow… that was… fast! You’d think we’d no longer be surprised when time zooms by but no… we still are. Every time.
BUT! It didn’t go TOO fast this time!
We’re so excited to announce that we have a NEW, IN-PERSON producer! His name is Kai and he’s already elevated our content quite a bit. We’ve also been putting together a bit of a Writer’s Room and Steph has helped us come up with some fun ideas – such as a Sleep Fairy (who you’ll see next month!)
We released our first video that involved the ENTIRETY of our new production team lineup! And it was a wild success! It was not something we were expecting at all… it was a nice surprise because this transition… well… let’s just say it hasn’t been the easiest!
And perhaps the thing we’re excited about the most? We’re FINALLY getting back to some of that fun and humor that our earlier videos had. It was something we’ve wanted to do for a while but didn’t have the resources for… until now!
Oh! Which means I should get back to working on them… but keep reading, Harley’s got the latest on your perks for February! Bye, Brains!

NeuroDiversion’s goal is to build a neurodivergent-friendly conference experience, and I’m eager to see what their first one will be like… and deeply honoured to be asked to speak as their Keynote Speaker for Friday (March 28) morning!
Released our first video utilizing the entire new production team lineup!
Made it to our 1st book birthday – and with a New York Times Bestseller burst now on all the (seventh edition!!!) covers
And the book has been translated into so so so many languages!
Officially hired a new (in-person!) producer who is an AMAZING fit for the team and exactly what we need, who has been crushing it – Hello, Kai!
Found another (ALSO IN PERSON!) producer we also loved (hi Moses!) who has decades of experience and is going to be consulting with us while we figure out our new production style & schedule.
And for YouTube? We are working with a VidIQ Coach to help us reach as many people as possible with the awesome new content we’re creating.
J2 is absolutely CRUSHING video animations and graphics! They look sooooo so so so good!
Harley’s been designing our thumbnails and knocking it out of the park – did you see how many views we’ve been getting??
Did you notice? We have a new video style that we really like! This idea (having two characters – a “story Jess” that’s struggling with a thing that ADHDers tend to struggle with, and a “teacher Jess” that infodumps research and strategies at her) has been a group effort and keeps evolving in REALLY fun ways– stay tuned!
