410. The Default Parent Dilemma: Let's Talk About the Invisible Load


Listen Later

There is no trophy for the woman who does it all.

The load we carry as parents isn't just about the physical tasks we have to get done. There's also a ton we carry mentally, especially when it comes to planning and thinking about what's next. From the moment we wake up, we're already thinking about meeting the needs of our family.

Not only is there no trophy for the woman who does it all, she usually ends up completely burnt out. In this episode, I'm sharing tips for making your invisible load visible so you can free yourself from stress and resentment.

In this episode, you will learn about:

  • All the last-minute things I'm worrying about right now and why.
  • How making plans outside your routine requires extra energy from you.
  • The societal norms of parenting and the pressure moms feel as the default parent.
  • The mental load I carry despite the help my family already has in our lives.
  • Why women have the tendency to take on more than they should.
  • Where the work actually begins when you have an unspoken balance in parenting.
  • Lies I used to tell myself about being the default parent (and how I think now).
  • The honest conversation you need to have about dividing responsibilities fairly.
