About this listen
In this episode, I sit down with Liane Davey, Canadian organizational psychologist and author of Thoughtload, to unpack why so many high performers feel busy all day… yet strangely unproductive.
We talk about the hidden cost of cognitive and emotional overload — what Liane calls thoughtload — and why burnout and workload don’t fully explain what’s happening in today’s workplaces. From multitasking in real corporate environments to the social pain of unresolved team tension, this conversation goes beyond productivity hacks and into the psychology of how work actually drains (or fuels) us.
We also explore ambition, boundaries, leadership blind spots, and the quiet ways hustle culture increases mental strain without improving results.
If you’ve ever felt productive on paper but depleted in reality, this episode will challenge how you think about energy, focus, and what real productivity should feel like.
