Ep. 110 Why Everyone Feels Exhausted in May (and What Your Brain Needs)

<<

Okay, I need to know if this is just me… or is May secretly the most busy, full, overwhelming month of the entire year?

Because somehow every human being decided:

let’s do graduations, field days, teacher appreciation week, Mother’s Day, performances, testing, schedule changes, summer planning, emotional breakdowns, and fourteen extra responsibilities… ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

And if your brain suddenly feels scattered, emotionally thinner than normal, overstimulated, exhausted, forgetful, or behind on everything right now…

there’s actually a reason for that.

In this episode, we’re getting curious about:

  •  cognitive load 

  •  attention fragmentation 

  •  “attention residue” 

  •  transition fatigue 

  •  why overloaded seasons affect us so deeply 

  •  and why overwhelm is not a character flaw 

Because maybe the question isn’t:

“What’s wrong with me?”

Maybe the better question is:

“What is my brain and body carrying right now?”

And honestly?
 That changes the conversation.
