In this episode of The Jogging Turtle Podcast, I sit down with Jim Carlough — author, speaker, and leadership veteran with over 30 years of experience in healthcare. We talk about what it means to lead with integrity in a time when true leadership feels rare. Jim shares stories about raising a family, running multimillion-dollar companies, dealing with loss, and mentoring future leaders — all through the lens of his “Six Pillars of Leadership”: Integrity, Focus, Empathy, Compassion, Humor, and Stability.

If you're navigating something similar, or wanna check out the full breakdown of this video and the framework I’m building from it here:

https://open.substack.com/pub/joggingturtle/p/cognitive-load-sensitivity-object?r=g3mrh&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false

Just some thoughts I’ve been sitting with around cognitive load, either-or thinking, and the pressure to focus on just one thing at a time. From parenting to business to just putting together a toy kitchen set—it all starts to add up.

I talk through four concepts that helped me make sense of it: Cognitive Load Sensitivity, Object Constancy, Monotropic Thinking, and Working Memory Challenges—how they’ve shown up in my day-to-day, and what I’ve been doing to work through them. Not a how-to, just a real look at what it’s like navigating all this while trying to stay grounded.
