About this listen
We'd love to hear from you!
Our brains do a lot of heavy lifting every single day. During periods of change (a new season, a new year, or just life), it’s common to feel overwhelmed.
This episode revisits three simple, science-backed ways to reset when your brain feels stuck, fried, or overloaded and explores:
- Why decision fatigue drains your cognitive energy faster than you realize
- How ridiculously small steps can restart momentum
- Why borrowing energy (also known as body doubling) works when motivation is low
- How switching to mental multiple choice reduces overwhelm
- Why rest and sleep are not optional extras, but cognitive necessities
Sometimes the most effective reset isn’t pushing harder, it’s pausing just long enough to let your brain cool down.
