The podcast discusses multitasking and how it affects the health of caregivers. The speakers, Diane Carbo and Tracy S. Lawrence, explain that multitasking is a myth and that people should focus on one task at a time to be more productive. They discuss the responsibilities of caregivers and how they need to take care of themselves, too. They also explain that technology is changing people's brains for the worse, and multitasking is causing a new form of anxiety called "fear of missing out." They conclude that caregivers need to take time off and prioritize their own well-being.
