Summary

While so many women wear multitasking as a badge of honor, I will readily admit that I am the worst at multitasking. I—it's terrible. I get so distracted and cannot do it. And I'll be frank, this has not served me well in motherhood because the interruptions are great and we'll talk a little bit about that. But today I just wanna share my thoughts on multitasking and how it doesn't help anyone and how it's so much better if we can focus on one thing at a time.

Okay, before I get started, there are two things that I wanted to share with you.

First, I am launching a brand new online work and play mastermind with about five to ten

amount of time. And this mastermind is going to last six months.

1:44.9

And I'm just really excited to go deep with a handful of ladies and really look at our lives
