Multi-Tasking & Your Health

In this episode, I'm diving into the often-praised but actually harmful world of multitasking. Living in a society where being "busy" is seen as a badge of honor, many midlife women, like you, find yourselves caught up in the relentless cycle of task-switching, never truly being present in the moment. This leads to disconnected relationships, poor self-care, and ultimately, a detrimental impact on your overall well-being.

I  open up about my personal experiences with ADHD, sharing my struggle and triumph over the need to multi-task. I'll reveal why slowing down, focusing on one thing at a time, and breaking free from the productivity culture is vital for our health and true connection with others.

With humor, wisdom, and genuine understanding, I'll guide you to recognize your worth beyond your to-do lists. I'll provide strategies to delegate, delete, and redefine success in a way that prioritizes self-care and mindfulness. It's not about who's busier; it's about who's more fulfilled.

Join me as we embrace the power of slowing down, challenge the societal pressure to "do it all," and cultivate a more mindful and satisfying life. You're worthy just as you are – let's celebrate that together.
