Ever feel like you're the only one who sees the mess, remembers the appointments, or notices what needs to be done?

This bonus drop was originally a subscriber-only extra, but now it's available to everyone! In this episode, we continue the conversation from our full-length episode on mental load—unpacking a viral list of everyday mental tasks that often go unseen (but never unfelt). From bedtime routines and safety habits to the emotional toll of “just let me know if you need help,” we break down what it really means to share the load in a partnership.

We explore:

• What mental load actually looks like day-to-day

• How unfinished tasks and small dismissals can erode connection

• The difference between helping and truly seeing your partner

• How to validate each other’s mental space without losing your own

🎧 Bonus extras from our main convos—full of relatable moments, humour, and real tools for navigating partnership without resentment.
