Are you constantly juggling five things at once… but still feel behind, foggy, or frazzled?

This week's podcast episode is a breath of fresh air.

We’re pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest myths of modern life: multitasking. It promises productivity but delivers overwhelm. If your mind feels cluttered, scattered, or perpetually behind, this one’s for you. We’ll talk about:
  • Why multitasking actually makes you less productive
  • What’s happening in your brain every time you switch tasks
  • How attention residue quietly drains your energy and focus
  • Why multitasking is costing more than just time, it's stealing your peace
You’ll also learn how to: ✔ Create friction between you and your distractions (hello, 7-second rule)
✔ Use time-blocking to boost focus without burnout
✔ Park intrusive thoughts so you can stay present
✔ Build spiritual and neurological cues between tasks
✔ Prioritize what matters most before the noise begins Plus: You’ll hear how biblical wisdom and brain science agree your mind wasn’t designed to be pulled in 5 directions at once. This episode weaves together Proverbs 4:25, Colossians 3:23, and Matthew 6:33 to show how focus isn’t just about getting more done, it’s about being more present with God, your people, and your purpose. This one is for anyone who’s tired of feeling scattered and is ready to start showing up fully, one task, one moment, one faithful step at a time. Come take a breath with me. There’s a better way to live, lead, and love.
