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.
