86. Email Workshop: Priority - Reduce Stress

October 24, 2025
Episode summary

The first priority of our email workshop is simple: reduce your email stress.

It might sound surprising, but I see lowering email stress as a vital -- and often overlooked -- security improvement. When we’re stressed, we think less clearly and are more likely to click on something we shouldn’t.

Some people are so overwhelmed by email that they check it as little as possible. That’s also a security risk -- most security alerts arrive by email, and if you aren't checking your email, you may not see them until it's too late.
