Welcome back to Happily Distracted, your favorite ADHD podcast. This week, Leyla and Monya riff about life distractions—especially endless scrolling—and how curated “perfect” families, trad-wives content, CEOs-with-5am-routines, and beauty influencers can fuel comparison in viewers, even when it’s just entertainment. They connect this to algorithms, comment-section sadness, and keeping up with “thousands of Joneses.” And then there’s the whole Manosphere side of the coin as well, and you know that they get into that too. None of these things feel like real life distractions, but here we are.

Also, Leyla opens up about not being cute when pregnant while Monya brags that she looked gooood during her own pregnancy. Pregnant trad-wives have NOTHIN on pregnant Monya. Oh, and Leyla bit a girl’s toe once. This episode is pretty much feral, so you should give it a listen!
