Feeling like your learners are zoning out—or drowning in too much content?

In Load Off Your Mind, Karla and Fiona unpack why traditional workplace training often overwhelms instead of empowers. The culprit? Cognitive load. And the antidote? Smart microlearning.

Join them as they explore:

  • How working memory impacts learning retention
  • Types of cognitive load—and why it matters to your training design
  • Real-world examples of learners Jade and Marcus, navigating the chaos of poorly designed eLearning
  • Practical microlearning strategies like pre-teaching, segmentation, modality, and the expertise reversal effect

Whether you're an L&D professional, HR leader, or capability coach, this episode is your guide to making learning stick—without overloading the brain.
