Show notes

In today's episode, Dr. Killeen explores what really happens when we overload our schedules and divide our attention too many ways. Drawing on research with sugarcane farmers and the concept of attention residue, he explains how scarcity and constant task switching quietly reduce our cognitive capacity. In dentistry and leadership, that loss of bandwidth shows up in missed details, rushed conversations, and weaker communication. The solution is not doing more. It is removing what distracts so you can be fully present where it matters most.
