Talk to Nichole and Ben.
In this episode, Nichole and Ben tackle one of the most explosive conflicts in modern relationships: the mental load debate. When one partner insists they're doing everything asked while the other feels like they're managing a household alone, who's right? If you've ever found yourself in a standoff over whether you should have to ask your partner to notice the overflowing bin, or you're exhausted from feeling like your home's project manager while your partner waits for instructions, this conversation will change everything. Nichole and Ben unpack why being helpful isn't the same as being an equal partner, what it really means to own a task versus just execute it, and how to shift from "just tell me what needs doing" to genuinely sharing the invisible work of running a home and family. This is honest marriage talk about emotional labor, household management, partnership equality, and how to stop fighting about housework and start building a relationship where both people feel seen, supported, and truly in it together. No task spreadsheets required - just real practical advice from a couple living it.
