THE RESILIENT WORKING MUM, Stress Management, Time Management, Boundaries, Work Life Balance, Mom Guilt, Burnout, Resilience, Productivity

Feeling pulled in a million directions? In this final 'reminder' episode, we’re revisiting a powerful conversation from the archives on multitasking vs. single tasking — and why switching between tasks could be one of the biggest drains on your productivity, wellbeing, and even your confidence.

If you're a high-achieving working mom juggling back-to-back meetings, emails, parenting, and the endless mental load, this episode will help you understand why multitasking isn't a badge of honour — it's a fast track to burnout.

You'll learn:

• Why your brain isn't wired to multitask (and what it costs you when you try)
• How single-tasking can help you feel calmer, clearer, and more focused
• The surprising link between focus and emotional resilience
• Simple, doable shifts to start reclaiming your time, energy, and attention

Whether you're navigating corporate life, leading a team, or just trying to get through the workday without losing your mind — this episode is your permission slip to do less, better.
