Happy Sunday, !

The #1 productivity “hack” that’s making you wired, tired, and unfocused.

(Especially if you’re an individual over 40 struggling with hormonal shifts.


It’s multitasking. And while it can feel productive, your brain isn’t built for it.

Every time you switch tasks, your brain burns more energy trying to recalibrate.

That “mental clutter” adds up fast… and leaves you feeling foggy, behind, and burned out.


Fact: Task-switching increases cognitive load (a.k.a. brain effort).

So when you’re toggling between texts, emails, calls, this thing, and that thing, your brain is on overdrive trying to keep up.

Signs your nervous system is feeling the effects:

→ Brain fog or forgetfulness

→ Snapping at family members and coworkers for no reason

→ Feeling wired but exhausted

→ Struggling to focus on simple things


Sound familiar?


Try this instead:

1️⃣ Batch similar tasks

2️⃣ Use timers or “focus sprints” (try 25 min. work / 5 min. rest)

3️⃣ Give your brain one job at a time


Just 10–15 minutes of true focus can feel like a relief.


Want bonus points?

→ Turn off push notifications when you’re doing anything important.

→ Close browser windows when you’re done with them.

→ Leave buffer time between commitments


Try single-tasking this week or for the next 3 days and see how much clearer and calmer your brain feels.
