When did being “always connected” become the new normal? 📱🧠
I recently had the opportunity to facilitate a session on Digital Overload & Focus for EY employees — and what made the session truly meaningful was how openly people shared their real experiences.
Constant notifications.
Back-to-back meetings.
Multiple screens.
The pressure to respond instantly.
And the feeling of being busy… without actually being focused.
What surprised many participants were some of the research findings on how digital overload impacts our attention, cognitive capacity, productivity and overall well-being.
But the most powerful part wasn't the research.
It was the conversation.
People paused to reflect on their own digital habits, shared challenges they experience every day, and explored simple ways to become more intentional about where they place their attention.
Because focus isn't just about managing your time.
It's about managing your attention.
And in a world designed to constantly compete for it, conscious choice becomes a leadership skill.
Grateful to EY for creating the space for such an open and engaging conversation. 🙏
✨ Pause. Observe. Reflect. Act.
A little more awareness can change the way we work, connect and live.
