Does your brain always seem to be buffering—mid-sentence, mid-task, or mid-thought? 
This week, Tori explores what’s really happening to our brains in midlife and why multitasking may be making it worse. Whether you’re juggling family, work, and wellness or just feeling a bit scattered lately, this conversation is for you. 

With science-backed insights from leading neurologists and personal stories from her own life, Tori breaks down how hormone fluctuations affect focus, why our obsession with productivity is quietly burning us out, and what you can do to reclaim clarity. You’ll also hear why “just doing one thing at a time” isn’t lazy—it’s life-giving. 

This episode is your reminder that a complete woman doesn’t do more—she does what matters, with presence.
