Too Many Words, Too Little Time: Reading, Retention & Real-Life Learning

Update: 2025-05-20

Description

Episode 282: In this episode, Vonda admits her struggle with staying focused (and awake) while reading—and Lori steps in with practical, real-life strategies and successes for actually remembering what you read. From turning chapters into movies in your mind to handwritten notes and the power of audiobooks, they cover it all—plus, how these techniques apply not just to personal growth, but to leadership, training, and even flower shop handbooks. Whether you’re a highlighter hero or a “just give me the audio” type, this episode will help you learn smarter, not harder.
