In this episode of The Workplace Chameleon, Dr. Celina Peerman tackles the hidden toll of decision fatigue—and what it’s really costing leaders.

From the “chicken pill” codeword that saved dinner debates to the daily drag of micro-decisions, this episode explores how mental overload, misalignment, and too many unclear expectations quietly wear us down. You’ll learn how decision fatigue shows up, why it’s not just about being busy, and what to do when even the simple stuff feels hard.

Dr. Celina shares three strategies to help reduce fatigue, restore clarity, and protect your energy—so you can make better decisions not just for yourself, but for everyone around you.

This episode is part of our ongoing season on focus, prioritization, and alignment—key themes from Celina’s upcoming book 39 Squirrels, the third in her leadership reflection series.

Dr. Celina Peerman is an organizational psychologist, speaker, and author with 30 years of experience helping leaders navigate change, develop stronger teams, and lead with more intention. Known for her humor, heart, and practical tools, she brings real-world insight to the daily work of leadership.
