Switching gears this week, I’m talking about a topic that is likely causing you a whole lot of stress: the mental load. What’s that? It’s all of the effort involved in managing your work, relationships, a family, and your household. It’s  basically every little detail of every little (and not-so-little) damn thing you have to juggle in your head, throughout the day, everyday, to keep up with your responsibilities and all of the decisions associated with them.

Today, we're talking about the mental load and how women can off load some of it onto their partner in a way that doesn't involve (that much) nagging or yelling and instead feels more fair. I recorded this episode for another podcast earlier this year, but it's really good and will be helpful for you in juggling your own work/life balance. Especially if you're struggling with little kids at home.

I'm also sharing with you my favorite book on the topic, Fair Play by Eve Rodsky. If you don't have the book AND the Fair Play cards, order them immediately and schedule a date with your partner immediately. I'm even going to teach you how to them on board with helping more so you can nag less.
