Join Me for the 12-Day Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge A homeschool mom self-care challenge that honours you. Homeschool mama, I see you. December is here, and it feels like an avalanche of ALL the things.Every month as a homeschool mom is full, but December? It's a whole new level. You're trying to finish things up, or you’re moving into a unit study on Christmas, you’re purchasing, prepping, planning, and playing—and you just added a part time-job to your full-time job. But as a homeschool mama, when December rolls around, mama ain’t looking after herself, she’s looking, after ALL the things. And though ALL the things are a whole lot of things EVERY other month, December’s ALL the things is an exponential set of things. Though you’re trying to do all the things, fulfill the expectations, and make it magical for your kids, you can’t do a little bit more if you didn’t already incorporate an approach to maintain margins and pursue purposeful living. That's why I'm inviting you to join me for the 12-Day Self-Care Challenge for Homeschool Moms. This isn't another TO DO list. It's a TO GIVE list—a way to give back to yourself. Join the 12 Day Self-Care Challenge Why Self-Care Matters As homeschool moms, we have a unique calling. We're deeply present with our kids, invested in their well-being, and working hard to create meaningful memories and learning experiences. We savor moments of: Watching our kids harmoniously play together (sometimes). Cheering them on as they tackle new challenges. Seeing their excitement as they pursue new interests. Building lifelong memories as a family. But there's another side to this season: The constant stream of emotions (theirs and ours). Sibling squabbles. Complaints and meltdowns. And, of course, the never-ending mundane tasks—laundry, dishes, meals, and errands. Even when we handle these challenges with grace, the emotional and mental investment is enormous. Add the holidays to the mix, and it's no wonder we feel stretched thin. The Secret Ingredient to a (more) Peaceful Holiday Season Here's the thing: you matter too. Your well-being is not just an afterthought—it's the foundation of a happy family life and a peaceful holiday season. Self-care: Refills your energy so you can approach the holidays with calm and joy. Models healthy balance and boundaries for your children. Helps you manage stress and let go of perfection. Strengthens your emotional resilience to handle challenges with patience and grace. Creates space for joy and presence, helping you savor the small, magical moments. When you care for yourself, you're giving your family the best gift of all—a peaceful, grounded, and joyful mama. What You'll Get in the 12-Day Challenge In just fifteen minutes a day—maybe even five—you'll explore simple, practical self-care strategies that fit into your busy December. These strategies aren't just for the holidays; they're tools to carry into the new year, helping you nurture yourself and your family with greater ease and satisfaction. By the end of these 12 days, you'll feel: More energized. More connected to yourself. And more at peace as you move through this beautiful, busy season. And so we must take care of ourselves. Join the 12 Days of Homeschool Mom Self-Care Challenge Join Me—You Deserve This So, homeschool mama, this is your invitation to take a breath, step back, and remember that you are worth nurturing. Let's do this together. This December, give yourself the gift of care, calm, and connection.

McKay examines the modern epidemic that is silently reshaping our brains - "Switching and Scrolling" - drawing a powerful parallel between the rise of physical obesity and the growing crisis of fractured attention. He argues that our addiction to the shallows of digital consumption is not just a productivity loss, but a thief of our peace, creativity, and deep connection.Navigating the science of attention, McKay cites Johann Hari's Stolen Focus and a Hewlett-Packard study revealing that digital distraction drops IQ twice as much as cannabis use. He shares the "phantom vibrations" felt by campers at a device-free retreat and the success of San Mateo High School's magnetic phone pouches to illustrate how environment dictates focus. The episode concludes with practical strategies - from "unplugged nights" to the Boston Consulting Group's "predictable time off" - encouraging listeners to reclaim their minds from the attention economy.Main Themes:"Switch and Scroll" is a cumulative epidemic, mirroring the long-term costs of obesity.Multitasking forces the brain into superficial processing, blocking deep learning.The three costs of switching: slower speed, increased errors, and drained creativity.Constant micro-interruptions trigger physiological stress and background anxiety."Attention Theft" uses behavioral psychology to hijack focus without consent.Focus is an environmental condition that must be intentionally designed and protected.Top 10 Quotes:"When we multitask, we operate in the shallow end of the pool, thinking and processing at a very superficial level.""Where do new thoughts and innovation come from? They come from your brain shaping new connections out of what you've seen and heard and learned.""I didn't realize how flat my attention had become until it expanded again.""Attention now has economic value... The more attention they get, the more money they make.""Switching destabilizes identity, it fragments memory, it disrupts coherence, and over time, it can reshape who we think we are.""Focus is not just an individual skill; it's an environmental condition that can be designed and protected.""Most people learn focus by doing something that's either very important or very interesting to them.""You may not be able to change the trends of obesity in our society, but you can change them in your own life and home."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Phones and AI aren't going anywhere, so the goal isn't to ban them, but to help our kids integrate them wisely. In this episode, we'll explore how constant connectivity impacts a child's ability to focus, plan, regulate emotions, and problem-solve. We'll look at why kids and teens are especially vulnerable to the “instant relief” loop that phones provide, and how AI can both support and hinder their growing brains.Most importantly, we'll talk about what parents can do: how to set boundaries that actually stick, how to preserve core executive functioning skills, and how to help your child build the resilience they'll need in a world where technology is always within reach.Jennifer's Takeaways:Impact of Cell Phones and AI on Kids' Focus and Problem-Solving Skills (00:00)Challenges of Multitasking with Multiple Screens (02:46)Balancing AI Use with Critical Thinking Skills (03:50)The Role of Boredom in Developing Creativity (05:47)Teaching Kids to Use AI as a Coach, Not a Crutch (07:05)The Future of AI in Education and Parenting (08:09)Meet Jennifer KolariJennifer Kolari is the host of the “Connected Parenting” weekly podcast and the co-host of “The Mental Health Comedy” podcast.

What if the constant cycle of wanting—more success, more recognition, more happiness—is the very thing preventing you from experiencing true gratitude? In this Thanksgiving special episode, Dr. Alex Loyd reveals why even the most successful people wake up thinking "I want" instead of feeling grateful, and how this affects everything from your immune system to your relationships. What You'll Discover: ✓ Why "I shall not want" from Psalm 23 is the key to genuine thanksgiving ✓ The neuroscience behind why your prefrontal cortex lies to you about happiness ✓ How Jesus demonstrated the ultimate surrender in the Garden of Gethsemane ✓ Why unforgiveness is really just an "I want" that didn't work out ✓ The shocking hospital story: Cancer patients who forgave everyone lived ✓ Why Dr. Loyd addresses forgiveness before any other healing work ✓ How "I want" shuts down your immune system and creates the failure response Key Topics Covered: The relationship between gratitude and surrender—why they can't be separated Michael Jordan syndrome: Why achievement doesn't equal fulfillment Your experience simulator: How the prefrontal cortex deceives you 50% of the time The Garden of Gethsemane: Jesus sweating drops of blood and choosing "not my will, but yours" Multitasking myth: Why your brain can't hold gratitude and wanting simultaneously Love-based vs. selfishness-based living: The ultimate health determinant The temptation trap: When imagining details + feeling emotions = being hooked Jesus's instruction: Stop worshiping and make things right first Mike Broadwell's story: Hospital worker tells cancer patients to forgive their entire contact list Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "Thankfulness and gratitude is really the opposite of I want. You really can't be thankful and grateful if at the same time you're thinking, 'I want, I want, I want.'" — Dr. Alex Loyd "If you're not in a life-threatening situation, being focused on 'I want' is selfishness-based, not love-based. And if what you're doing is selfishness-based, you are hurting yourself and everyone else that you know because that's working against love." — Dr. Alex Loyd "Unforgiveness comes from having an 'I want' that didn't work out the way you wanted it to. Either you didn't get it or you did get it but it didn't do it for you." — Dr. Alex Loyd "I believe if you do those very few simple things, I promise you it will dramatically change your life in a way that the codes don't do, that trilogy doesn't, that pills don't do, exercise doesn't do." — Dr. Alex Loyd "She will tell them you need to get your Rolodex out, call every single person on it and forgive them. Only like two people have ever done that. And those two actually lived and survived the cancer." — Mike Broadwell Core Message: The practice of laying down "I want" and embracing gratitude for what you already have is the most powerful healing action you can take—more powerful than any supplement, exercise routine, or healing modality. Unforgiveness, which stems from unfulfilled wants, may be the single biggest obstacle to your health and happiness. This Thanksgiving, the challenge is simple: get out your contact list (including blocked contacts) and forgive everyone, ask for forgiveness where needed, and shift from "I want" to "not my will, but yours be done."

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan welcomes back bestselling author and communication expert Chris Fenning, whose latest book Effective Meetings offers leaders a refreshingly simple framework to cut meeting time by 30% or more. Chris unpacks the hidden cost of poorly-run meetings—billions in wasted dollars, lost morale, and decision fatigue—and explains why the real issue is a lack of training, not bad intentions. Together, Avetis and Chris break down the deceptively powerful TPO method (Topic, Purpose, Output), showing leaders how to transform recurring time drains into high-impact, action-oriented conversations.From the pitfalls of daily stand-ups to the myth of the “must-attend” calendar invite, Chris shares real-world stories, practical examples, and organizational case studies (like Shopify's Chaos Monkey) that show how eliminating unnecessary meetings isn't just possible—it's urgent. Whether you're a startup founder drowning in back-to-back Zooms or a Fortune 30 exec looking to sharpen your team's focus, this episode is packed with actionable advice you can apply today.TakeawaysTPO (Topic, Purpose, Output) is the foundational framework for running effective meetings.A meeting invite with no context is like a court summons—rude and unproductive.The #1 reason meetings fail? Lack of a clear purpose—not missing agendas.“No agenda, no attendance" is a viable policy to filter out low-value invites.Recurring meetings often lose relevance over time—reevaluate them regularly.Many meetings should be emails—ask if the meeting requires real-time, multi-person input.Decision-making meetings must include actual decision-makers or become planning sessions.Multitasking in meetings is usually a sign people shouldn't be there or are disengaged.The “Inverse Time Rule”: if a topic only affects a few people, it should take minimal time.Leaders should experiment: cut one-hour weeklies to bi-weeklies and watch productivity rise.Post-meeting follow-ups are faster and clearer when the output is clearly defined.Clarity is leadership—clear asks beat backstories and long-winded explanations.Chapters00:00 – Intro: The Meeting Problem01:30 – Why Most Meetings Fail03:15 – Topic, Purpose, Output (TPO) Framework06:00 – Writing Better Meeting Invites08:00 – The Power of Saying No to Bad Meetings10:00 – Recurring Meetings: Fix or Kill Them11:45 – When a Meeting Shouldn't Be a Meeting17:00 – How to Restructure Recurring Meetings21:00 – Real Case Study: Cutting Meetings at Scale25:00 – The Truth About Daily Stand-Ups27:00 – TPO in Action: Before, During, and After31:00 – AI's Role in Meeting Efficiency33:00 – Why Clarity is the Cornerstone of Leadership35:00 – Helping Others Get to the Point Faster42:00 – Goal, Problem, Solution: The Efficient Ask45:00 – Why Experts Often Over-Explain48:00 – What's Changed Since Chris's First Book49:30 – Favorite Book Recommendation: The Culture Map51:00 – Final Thoughts & Call to ActionChris Fenning's Social Media Link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-fenning/Chris Fenning's Website Link:https://chrisfenning.com/Resources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

Apart from their vocation, teachers also handle administrative work and counselling. Synopsis: Every second Wednesday of the month, The Straits Times takes a hard look at Singapore's social issues of the day with guests. Teachers in Singapore work longer than their peers in other advanced economies. They spend less time teaching but more on planning, counselling and communicating with students’ parents, according to the Teaching and Learning International Survey (Talis) released on Oct 7, 2025. In total, the Talis survey polled 194,000 teachers in 55 education systems across Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. Teachers in Singapore work an average of 47.3 hours a week, higher than the overall average of 41 hours. Approximately 3,500 teachers and respective school principals across all 145 public secondary schools and 10 randomly selected private secondary schools participated in the survey from April to August 2024. In this episode, ST assistant podcast editor Lynda Hong examines why this is happening, and whether there is any way their workload and stress can be reduced. In the studio with her is Ms Sarah Tan, a former secondary school teacher with 17 years of experience and taught till 2020, but now gives tuition. She is also a mother of two children aged 13 and 15. Mr Manogaran Suppiah was formerly the principal of Anderson Serangoon Junior College. He first started out teaching for 16 years, before moving to different departments within the Ministry of Education, including becoming the founding executive director of Academy of Singapore Teachers (AST).

„Wir leben nicht in einer Zivilisation, sondern in einer Zuvielisation – von allem zu viel. Und das überfordert unser Gehirn.“ – Professor Dr. Volker Busch ist Neurologe, Psychiater, Bestsellerautor, Podcaster und einer der renommiertesten Experten für mentale Gesundheit, Fokus und Schlaf. Er erklärt, warum unser Gehirn mit der permanenten Reizflut des modernen Lebens schlicht überfordert ist und wie wir lernen können, wieder klarer zu denken und unseren Fokus zurückzugewinnen. In dieser Folge BUNTE VIP GLOSS spricht Podcast-Host Jennifer Knäble mit dem Experten über mentale Hygiene, Denkpausen und die Kunst, loszulassen. Er zeigt, wie wir unser Gehirn pflegen, statt es ständig zu überfordern: Multitasking ist ein Irrtum, Pausen sind notwendig und Aufmerksamkeit muss trainiert werden wie ein Muskel. Gezielte Routinen helfen, das Gehirn langfristig gesund zu halten: Bewusste Atmung – vier Sekunden ein, acht Sekunden aus – aktiviert den Parasympathikus und senkt den Stresspegel messbar. Bewegung und der Kontakt mit der Natur fördern emotionale Stabilität und kognitive Leistungsfähigkeit. Schlaf regeneriert Nervenzellen und stärkt das Gedächtnis. Und Ernährung ist dabei weit mehr als Energiezufuhr: Wasser, Omega-3-Fettsäuren, Vitamin D und B-Vitamine gelten als echte Brain Foods für Konzentration, Stimmung und mentale Stärke. Die wichtigsten Aussagen von Prof. Dr. Volker Busch: „Die meisten Gedächtnisprobleme sind keine Demenz, sondern Aufmerksamkeitsprobleme durch Ablenkung.“ „Natur erdet – sie verkleinert das Ego und beruhigt den Kopf.“ „Atmung ist Neurobiologie zum Anfassen: Vier Sekunden ein, acht Sekunden aus – und der Stresspegel fährt runter.“ „KI spart Denkarbeit – aber wer Denken ständig auslagert, trainiert es nicht.“ „Weniger To-dos, mehr Fokus: Loslassen schafft Zufriedenheit.“ „Der stabilste Frieden entsteht in uns – durch Zuversicht und gute Gedanken vor dem Schlaf.“ Ein Gespräch über geistige Klarheit und das Wiedererlangen der Fähigkeit, im richtigen Moment abzuschalten.

““Without healthy employees, you don't have healthy customers. And without healthy customers, you don't have a healthy bottom line.” — Kate Visconti, Founder and CEO, Five to Flow.While artificial intelligence (AI) has hastened development and made enterprises more efficient, it also comes with more deadlines. The deadlines often merge into after-hours messaging. Burnout has become a default result of productivity, especially in the tech industry. In this episode of the Tech Transformed podcast, Shubhangi Dua, Podcast Host, Producer and B2B Tech Journalist, speaks with Kate Visconti, Founder and CEO of Five to Flow, about the critical issues of burnout and disengagement in the workplace. They discuss the five core elements of change management, the financial implications of employee wellness, and strategies for enhancing productivity through flow optimisation. Also Watch: Fixing the Gender Gap in STEMThe Wellness Wave Diagnostic to Help Fix Profit LeaksVisconti stresses the importance of creating a supportive work environment and implementing effective change management practices to improve organisational performance. The conversation also highlights the role of technology in productivity and the need for leaders to prioritise employee well-being to drive business success.With an ambition to change the way organisations define true performance, VIsconti developed a system – a data-driven framework called The Wellness Wave. As per the official Five to Flow website, The Wellness Wave is “a proprietary diagnostic that measures sentiment and business performance across five core elements.”Visconti sheds light on the original framework of the company. She says, “The original was adopted when we first kicked off as part of our consulting, and it's called the Wellness Wave diagnostic. It's literally looking across the five core elements — people, culture, process, technology, and analytics.”This framework helps companies identify and fix their profit leaks, which are the hidden financial losses caused by employee burnout, disengagement, and distraction. In her conversation with Dua, host of the Tech Transformed podcast episode, Visconti shares how understanding human behaviour can lead to significant improvements in business performance.According to Five to Flow's global diagnostics, only 13 per cent of flow triggers work at their best. For tech leaders, that means most teams are functioning well below their potential.Kate's top tip is to create flow blocks. “It's about designing uninterrupted time for peak focus. This is when your brain isn't in a stress state. For me, it's mornings with my coffee. For others, it might be in the afternoon. Communicate those times to your team and protect them like meetings.”These flow blocks aren't just productivity tricks; they show that focus is more important than frantic multitasking. “Multitasking is a fallacy,” Kate says. “You're just rapidly switching tasks and burning through mental...

In this episode we interviewTommy Brown, a pastor and author, about his new book, The Speed of Soul: Four Rhythms for a Quiet Life in a World of Noise. We explore themes of life transitions, the healing power of water, the significance of everyday work, and the importance of simplicity and mindfulness in a complex world. Tommy emphasizes the need to revise our understanding of work, the role of technology, and the value of community and connection. The discussion culminates in a reflection on living a life of integrity and embracing the journey of faith. Takeaways The best day on the water is any day. Water has a healing and resetting power. What we do now matters, even when unnoticed. Following Jesus is simple but impossible without help. Multitasking doesn't work; focus on one thing. Love deeply, live quietly, and mind your own business. The kingdom of God is right here, in our everyday lives. Words matter; they can call out the good in others. We need to make a family out of no family. You can live quietly and love deeply.

I even share the origins of The Happy Hustle, the story behind the “3 freedoms” (financial, creative, and time), and how the S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N. framework became my North Star for balance and fulfillment.Here are a few takeaways you'll get from the episode:Focus on one thing at a time. Multitasking is the enemy of mastery. Presence equals performance.Redefine balance. True happiness comes when you harmonize ambition with well-being — not sacrifice one for the other.Know your MVTs. Identify your Most Valuable Tasks each day so you can work smarter, not harder.Get outdoors. Nature resets your nervous system and reignites your creativity — I swear by this one.Define success for YOU. Don't chase someone else's version of “making it.” The goal is fulfillment, not just achievement.We also talked about on the importance of mindful leadership, unplugging digitally, and how becoming a parent shifted my perspective on priorities and purpose.

Experts are debunking the myth of multitasking, but in such a fast-paced world, how else can we possibly keep up?Psychology Professor at Stanford University, Anthony Wagner, says multitasking does not exist, but what we are doing instead is forcing the brain to switch between tasks.Research shows performing multiple tasks at the same time reduces productivity by up to 40% by increasing cognitive load, causing errors, and consuming mental energy.But, UCD Associate Professor in the School of Psychology, Ciara Greene, says the human brain is flexible and completing multiple tasks at the same time does not impact our attention span.To discuss further, she joins Seán.
News and Updates: AI “Workslop” at Work – A Stanford/BetterUp survey finds over 40% of U.S. employees encounter AI-generated “workslop”—content that looks polished but adds no real value. On average, 15% of workplace output now qualifies, with tech and professional services hit hardest. Colleagues who submit workslop are seen as less capable, trustworthy, and creative. Fauxductivity: Busy, Not Productive – Experts warn of “fauxductivity,” where workers mistake busyness for real progress. Multitasking, endless low-value to-do lists, and unproductive meetings create the illusion of productivity. Solutions include prioritizing top tasks, deep work sessions, and honest daily reviews. ChatGPT Parental Controls – OpenAI rolled out parental controls for ChatGPT, letting parents set time limits, disable voice or image features, turn off memory, and restrict sensitive content. Parents may also receive alerts if teens show signs of self-harm. The move follows lawsuits and safety concerns, with settings designed to stay in place until parents remove them. Americans' AI Attitudes – A Pew survey shows U.S. adults remain wary of AI's growing role. – 71% would like a candidate less if they learned AI wrote a political speech. – 56% feel negatively about AI-written news articles, while nearly half don't mind AI art or music. – Most Americans (53%) believe AI will harm creativity, while 50% say it will weaken human relationships. – Younger adults are more skeptical of AI art and music than older generations. California AI Safety Law – Gov. Gavin Newsom signed SB 53, the nation's first AI safety law. It requires AI developers to disclose safety protocols, report major incidents, and protects whistleblowers. The law also lays the foundation for CalCompute, a state-run cloud cluster. Industry giants like Anthropic supported the bill, while lobbying groups warned it could stifle innovation.

Dear Boss Babe... Busy doesn't mean productive. If you've been wearing multitasking like a badge of honor, it's time we had a little heart-to-heart. Hustle culture has convinced high achievers like us that juggling everything at once is the secret to success—but truth? It's draining your energy, stealing your peace, and keeping you from the real wins that matter. In today's pep talk, I'm breaking down why multitasking is a trap and why efficiency is your new self care practice. You'll hear why slowing down isn't falling behind, why presence beats busyness every time, and how choosing one meaningful priority a day can completely shift your results (and your sanity). This is for the boss babes who are tired of being “busy” but not satisfied, for the dream chasers who know they're meant for more, and for the women who are ready to protect their peace instead of their to-do lists. ✨ What you'll learn in this episode: Why multitasking is actually sabotaging your productivity How efficiency protects your energy and sharpens your clarity The simple daily shift that will help you feel true progress—not just pressure Why being fully present is the most powerful flex in both work and life Remember: busy is not the goal. Present, intentional, impactful—that's the real win.
Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes 7 Success Shifts That Actually Work (Part 1) September 23, 2025 | Episode - 5187 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Scott's back with part two of his success mindset series, and he's fired up about it! After sharing 14 mindset shifts yesterday, he's diving into seven more game-changers that'll help you get what you want. From facing your passion to letting go of control, Scott breaks down practical ways to shift your thinking. He talks about doing things "the Scott way" (which really means your way), why good enough beats perfectionism, and how the people around you are shaping who you become. This isn't Reddit-worthy advice—it's real-world stuff that works. Featured Story Scott shares his approach to decision-making by asking himself, "How would Scott do it?" It's not about ego—it's about trusting the way you were born to handle things. He talks about how God gave him a specific way of doing things, even if he started out "stupid" and had to figure it out over time. The key insight? When you trust your natural approach instead of copying what others say you should do, you tap into something authentic and powerful. Scott's motorcycle trip example shows how letting go of control and letting others lead can actually work better than trying to be out front all the time. Important Points Good enough is actually good enough for most things, and when executed consistently, it becomes perfect over time through the compounding effect. Multitasking splits your energy and delays success—focus your one mind on one thing, or better yet, see everything through the lens of your core values. You are who you hang out with due to the proximity effect, which influences your faith, money, attitude, and everything else in your life. Memorable Quotes "The confounding effect over time of being good enough and not reinventing the wheel every single day just makes perfect out of good enough." "You are so much more interesting than anything on social media. You are so much more exciting." "I think you are fighting some influential warfare today, and the more you understand that and realize that, the more you begin to really take control." Scott's Three-Step Approach Face your passion and ask yourself how you would naturally handle each situation that comes up, trusting your God-given way of doing things. Practice the good enough approach by focusing on one thing at a time and letting consistency create perfection over time. Evaluate your proximity circle and say no to anything that doesn't directly support your goals, values, and vision for your life.

Ever feel like you're carrying bricks in your backpack that no one asked you to carry? Or turning a five-minute task into a half-hour saga of overthinking? You're not alone, and your brain might actually be the culprit. In this episode, Dr. Bray pulls back the curtain on why we over complicate simple things and what neuroscience reveals about it. (Hint: it's not just about dopamine, it's about the way our brain's prediction systems and default mode network keep us stuck in loops of worry and “what ifs.”) You'll learn: Why your brain makes simple things feel hard, and how it thinks it's helping. The hidden costs of overthinking on your energy, creativity, and well-being. Practical tools to stop adding “extra screws” to life and start living with more clarity and ease. If you're ready to stop over-engineering your days and start creating space for simplicity, joy, and focus, this episode is for you. QUOTES BY DR. BRAY "The mind is designed for survival, not for peace. To find peace, we must practice it intentionally." "Overcomplicating things gives us the illusion of control, but real control comes from simplicity." "Multitasking is the art of doing everything poorly at once."
Have you ever ended your day straight-up exhausted — like you were busy all day, but when you look back, you've got almost nothing to show for it? Let me be real with you… it's not because you need to do more. It's because hustle culture has tricked you into glorifying multitasking — and baby, that will burn you out every time. In this episode, I'm calling out multitasking for what it really is: a productivity trap. Hustle culture has us believing that juggling a million things is a badge of honor, when in reality it's draining our energy, scattering our focus, and robbing us of the self-care we desperately need. If you're tired of ending your days feeling drained instead of proud, this convo is for you. By the end of this episode, you'll learn: Why multitasking is actually task switching and how it secretly kills your focus. The sneaky ways hustle culture convinces ambitious women to mistake “busy” for “productive.” Simple, practical strategies to protect your energy, set boundaries, and reclaim your peace through real self-care. Press play right now to stop glorifying hustle culture, reclaim your focus, and protect your peace so you can show up as your highest self. And don't forget — take the free Boss Babe Archetype Quiz to uncover your strengths, growth edges, and self-care style.

Mitte der 1980er brachte Commodore mit dem Amiga ein System auf den Markt, das der Konkurrenz technisch weit voraus war, Multitasking, brillante Grafik, realistischer Sound.

Und hinterließ einen gewaltigen Fußabdruck in der Technikgeschichte. Henner und Gunnar sprechen im dritten und finalen Teil der Amiga-Reihe über die Hochphase, die Spiele und den anschließenden Niedergang.
