In this episode, we're tackling burnout and attention overload with Professor Gloria Mark from UC Irvine. Ever feel like you’re drowning in distractions—from Slack messages and emails to the endless scroll of social media? Professor Mark helps us break down the science behind why our focus is constantly slipping and what’s driving us to the brink of exhaustion. We dig into everything from the myth of multitasking to why our attention spans are shorter than ever. Plus, we get some practical strategies to reclaim your day, your mental clarity, and your energy. Don't miss this one—it's time to reset, refocus, and finally take control.

Professor Mark's Book: Attention Span: A Groundbreaking Way to Restore Balance, Happiness and Productivity.
