If you’ve ever walked into a room and immediately started making a mental checklist of everything no one else seems to see, welcome to the freight train of mental load.This week, I sit down with Zachary Watson, aka The Mental Load Coach and self-professed “recovering man-child,” to talk about the invisible labor that’s burning people out behind closed doors. We get into emotional labor, decision fatigue, gender roles, agency, and the uncomfortable question: what does real accountability in partnership actually look like?Whether you’re carrying the load or just realizing you’ve been riding in the passenger seat, this episode is for you. Buckle up.
