This isn’t just a book.
It’s a reclamation.

“A rallying cry for those feeling lost in a world that commodifies attention.”

Pre-order the book:

This book wasn’t written in the ashes. It was written before, in rhythm, in peace. And then the fire came. The peace disappeared and the very tools inside the book, tools to come back to yourself when the world won’t stop spinning, became the only things I had to hold onto.

This is the part I want people to feel. That this book wasn’t just researched. It was lived. It wasn’t written in crisis, but it survived one. And that’s why it matters now more than ever.

Alongside that survival came a very real and very human struggle: the decision to delay its release.

That choice didn’t come lightly. I wanted so badly to give this book to people sooner, because it felt urgent, because it felt needed. But I had to wrestle with whether I was truly ready to live inside the story again, and whether the world was truly ready to receive it, not just as a collection of strategies, but as something deeper.

Something that helps us understand why we lose our focus in the first place and calls us back, not just to better habits, but to ourselves.

And now I see the delay wasn’t a detour. It was part of the story. Because this book wasn’t just written in peace. It had to survive the storm. And now it carries both.

Finding Focus:
A Reckoning, A Return

This is not just a book about attention.
This is a book about coming home to yourself.

In a world that profits from your distraction, clarity is rebellion—and focus is a radical act of self-respect.

Finding Focus is a guide for those who feel frayed, flooded, and far from themselves. For those aching to stop performing presence and start inhabiting it.

Through the lens of behavioral science and lived truth, Dr. Zelana Montminy dismantles the myth that we’re just “bad at paying attention.” She reveals how a fractured world rewires our minds for survival—not connection—and what it takes to gently reclaim the parts of ourselves we've scattered in the scroll.

This is not about hustle. Or optimization.
This is about remembering who you are when the noise quiets.

You’ll learn how to:

Protect your energy in a world that siphons it
Rebuild a nervous system wired for presence, not performance
Name what matters—and focus like it does
Make space for meaning, depth, and stillness

Finding Focus doesn’t ask you to do more. It asks you to come back to what’s real.
