Host Bryan Burrs shares a personal story about juggling his phone while talking with his daughter to illustrate how our brains don’t truly multitask. He explains that rapid task-switching steals presence, depth, and joy from important moments and offers simple practices—pause and name your focus, question urges to split attention, and put the phone in another room—to rebuild awareness and connection.
Through consistent practice and small habits, Burrs shows how choosing presence over distraction enriches conversations, work, and life, and invites listeners to try giving one thing their whole self this week.
