In today’s episode, we dive into a topic that often comes up with my coaching clients: multitasking. You’re likely multitasking right now as you listen, and that’s perfectly okay! We’ll explore how multitasking can fit into a slow-living lifestyle, especially when it comes to those everyday tasks on autopilot, and when it might be time to focus on being fully present.

We cover:

When Multitasking Works: Discover how multitasking can be a helpful tool for completing routine tasks without much thought, allowing you to get more done.
Being Present for New Experiences and Family Time: Learn why focusing on one thing at a time is essential when you’re trying something new or spending quality time with loved ones.
What Is Context Switching? Understand how switching between tasks can affect your focus and productivity, and what it means for your day-to-day.
Multitasking with a Slow Living Mindset: Find practical tips for incorporating multitasking without losing the calm and intention that slow living brings.

Tune in for a balanced approach to multitasking that can help you stay productive while still embracing a mindful, slow-living lifestyle.
