There’s a universal truth in motherhood: we’re doing too much. Whether for our kids or for our home, we most often fulfill the overwhelming majority of demands…and we’re not happy about it. In fact, we feel disappointed, frustrated, resentful and burnt out. So what can we do about it?

Today’s guest, Paige Connell, is an influencer-turned-advocate who gives us the vocabulary and the confidence to ask for what we want: an equitable division of labor. A podcaster and mom of 4 based in Massachusetts, Paige says wanting our needs met is NOT nagging!  Yet advocating for change does require some strategy and honest conversations.  You won’t want to miss this empowering hour that speaks to every mom:

* defining invisible labor and equitable division of labor

* the foundations of the “Fair Play” method as created by Eve Rodsky

* discussion about whether moms should have to get “buy in” from husbands and partners

* why moms become the “default parent” who manages the family’s schedule and needs…and how to break the cycle

* creating more equitable examples for our kids so we create a new dynamic 

* asking ourselves where we require appreciation and acknowledgement
