In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I sit down with Tom Vorselen, founder of The Study Coach, to tackle a topic that impacts every leader, professional, and lifelong learner: why we were never actually taught how to learn. We unpack the hidden flaws in traditional Education, why so many high-achievers struggle with certifications and new skills, and what science really says about improving memory and retention.
Tom shares practical, research-backed strategies that can boost retention by up to 150%, break the cycle of procrastination, and help you rebuild confidence if learning has ever felt overwhelming. We also dive into the role of AI in education—where it helps, where it hurts, and how to use it wisely. If you’re a working professional balancing Growth with a busy life, this conversation is packed with insights you can apply immediately.
