About this episode

Emma Scheib of Simple Slow Lovely busts the myth of multi-tasking, and talks about the benefits of single-tasking.

Episode 1852: The Myth of Multi-Tasking vs. The Art of Single-Tasking by Emma Scheib of Simple Slow Lovely

Emma is a self-confessed introvert who craves the simple and slow things in life. She loves to run, read, and write. She is blessed to be wife to a wonderful husband, mum to two amazing and vivacious daughters, 1 dog, a cat, and 5 chickens. They live in Motueka, New Zealand, a stone’s throw from the beautiful Abel Tasman National Park.

Emma has been on a journey towards a slower simpler and more intentional way of living since her second daughter was born a few years ago. She has learned lots along the way and loves passing on these lessons.
