EP 152: The Sneaky Reason You Never Feel Caught Up (And What Your Brain Has to Do With It)
What if being busy has less to do with how much time you have and more to do with how much time you're using? In this episode, Amanda unpacks why her calendar opening up this summer left her feeling just as busy as when she was running a business, homeschooling, and finishing her Master's degree all at once... and the research-backed reason behind it.
Key Takeaways:
- Capacity isn't fixed. It bends to whatever time you hand it.
- Parkinson's Law explains the pattern. Work expands to fill whatever time is available, and researchers have tested this directly.
- Learn a trick that works with what we know about Parkinson's Law
- Find time leftover at the end of the day, even on your busiest days.
