Work + Life Harmony | Time Management, Organization and Planning for Overwhelmed Women

What The Divided Attention Tax is Costing You Every Day


Listen Later

You’re doing all the things. The calendar is full, the to-do list is moving, and yet—you’re still feeling overwhelmed, scattered, and completely drained. Sound familiar? You might be paying the Divided Attention Tax without even realizing it.

In this episode, I’m unpacking what the Divided Attention Tax really is, how it shows up in your day-to-day life, and most importantly, what it’s quietly costing you—both in time and energy. From multitasking to mental overload to nonstop context switching, we’re talking through the hidden habits that are zapping your focus and leaving you feeling tapped out… even when everything technically gets done.

If you’ve ever caught yourself jumping from task to task, constantly thinking through a mental checklist, or wondering why you’re so tired all the time—this episode will help you finally name it, understand it, and take control of it.

In This Episode, We’ll Explore:

  • The four ways divided attention sneaks into your day
  • How task switching, context switching, and multitasking affect your brain
  • The real reason you feel exhausted even when your list is complete
  • What you can start doing today to reclaim your time and energy
