“Some people are feeling overwhelmed and exhausted and that’s because we’re doing a lot more what’s called ‘serial processing’ every day
“It used to be you’d get up, you’d brush your teeth, you’d check your phone, you’d tackle your day”
“Now, you need to think about whether or not you can touch a door handle, how you’re going to get groceries. There’s a lot more planning … we’re thinking a lot harder about stuff that we just didn’t have to think about before.”
