1002. Why Multitasking Is Ruining Your Memory + Focus

In this powerful Morning Microdose, psychology + neuroscience expert Charan Ranganath breaks down the hidden impact of multitasking + digital distractions on memory, focus, and brain health — and why your mind was never designed to constantly switch between tasks. From nervous system overload + attention fatigue to the science of presence, productivity, and intentional living, Charan reminds us that slowing down and focusing deeply may actually be the key to feeling calmer, sharper, and more connected in your daily life.
