I'm Sahar Andrade, MB.BCh, a physician turned Neuroleadership Coach and Forbes Coaches Council member.

Small decisions cost leaders the big ones because of how attention works under load.

The mind filters millions of signals down to a handful it can actively hold, and under sustained pressure that filter narrows.

Full episode notes continue with the six question-based headers above, the framework tease, and the single CTA to The Pressure Room, Session 3.

1. Why do small decisions cost leaders the big ones?

2. Is decision fatigue in leaders a real thing?

3. How is cognitive overload different from being busy?

4. Does using more AI tools make a leader's decisions harder?

5. What is one practical way to protect leadership judgment during a busy day?

6. Who is Sahar Andrade and why does this view of leadership matter?
