Description: Do you feel exhausted even after a whole night’s sleep or a seemingly restful weekend? You might unknowingly be caught in mindless habits slowly wearing you down. In this episode, Jessica breaks down five common, sneaky habits that drain your mental and physical energy—from chaotic multitasking to overstimulation from tech and shallow breathing. These aren’t just bad habits—they’re signs your mind is running on empty.

Tune in to learn:

  • Why your messy desk might be stressing you out more than you realize
  • How "milkshake multitasking" scrambles your focus
  • The surprising science behind why doing nothing is actually doing something powerful
  • Simple tools like "thinker moments" and deep breathing to reboot your mind and restore energy

  • These quick neuroscience-backed tips will help you stop the spiral of overwhelm, create calm, and start feeling like yourself again—even when life isn’t perfect.
