306. The Mental Load We Carry and How to Stop Overthinking


Listen Later

It’s time to lighten your mental load and take back control.

A mental load is one of the heaviest things we can carry, especially if we have a lot going on in our business and family lives. A heavy mental load can also lead to more overthinking, which creates an intense cycle of overwhelm.

Due to many different factors, like personal expectations and societal pressure, women are often the ones in the household who carry the brunt of the mental load. If you’re ready to break free from the cycle of overthinking, you’ll love the tips shared in this episode.

In this episode, you will learn about:

  • The responsibilities we have that aren’t often seen or appreciated.
  • Different types of mental load and how they might show up in your life.
  • Why women tend to take on most of the mental load and how it impacts us.
  • What the research says about overthinking in men versus women.
  • The symptoms of carrying invisible labor and how it keeps you stuck.
  • What brain dumping is and how it can help you avoid feeling overwhelmed.
  • Why you shouldn’t be ashamed to outsource when you need to.
  • What cognitive restructuring is and how to use it to your advantage.
  • The most affordable and easy way to deal with stress and overwhelm.
