Brain Fog Got You Down? Its Cause May Surprise You.

We’ve been sold the idea that multitasking is a superpower, especially for women. That juggling a dozen tabs in our minds is a mark of strength and success.

But what if it’s actually eroding our focus and draining our vitality?

A study on single-tasking in school children showed that no matter the task, doing one thing at a time builds concentration and cognitive performance. If that’s true for developing brains, why would it be any different for us?

Women, especially, are praised for their multitasking skills. But we’re also the first to report brain fog, forgetfulness, and mental fatigue—blaming everything from PMS and perimenopause, to lack of sleep or exercise, poor diet, suspected vitamin deficiencies, and everything in between. While these may be implicated, we can’t ignore how multitasking affects brain function.

Because here’s the truth: there's a downside to multitasking: it's mentally exhausting. It fragments attention and keeps the nervous system overstimulated.

So when you find yourself forgetting why you walked into a room, or struggling to hold a thought, pause. How many things were you juggling in your head leading up to that moment? I bet a lot.

🌿 Pause For Reflection

What if the fog isn’t a flaw in your biology, but a symptom of chronic mental overload?
What would it feel like to do just one thing with your full attention?
Try it. Just once today. Set an alarm for 15 minutes and do JUST ONE THING at a time.
Feel how grounding, how powerful, how freeing that can be.
Because your power isn’t in doing more.
It’s in being fully here, for less.

Quote Of The Issue

“Your health is an investment, not an expense.” – Unknown

Put Down the Badge. Pick Up the Crown.

Resilience is not the ability to tolerate. True resilience—the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties—is power in motion. But as Peter Crone so brilliantly states in this video, when a woman lives in contradiction to her deepest values, resilience turns into tolerance. She begins to withstand, not expand. She bends. She abandons herself.

For too long, women have worn multitasking, over-functioning, and burnout like badges of honour—proof of "earning her keep" in a world that constantly tests it. But now, in an era of economic volatility and chronic uncertainty, this outdated survival model is quietly crumbling. And it must.

Because this moment calls not for the woman who copes, but the one who leads.
The one who protects her energy like a sacred fire.
Who slows down to listen deeply to her own wisdom.
Who builds foundational health—physical, emotional, spiritual—not as indulgence, but as strategy.

“Health is an investment, not an expense” isn’t just a poetic phrase. It’s a call to arms to root yourselves in what keeps you clear, steady, and strong.

The world doesn’t need more tolerance. It needs you, women, fully resourced and rising.

Put down the badge. Pick up your crown and sceptre.
