Feeling stretched too thin trying to do it all? In this episode of Better Relationships After Baby with Chelsea Skaggs, we’re talking about one of the most powerful stress-reducing tools for parents: identifying your glass and plastic balls. 🧠

Glass balls are the essential tasks that truly matter—drop them, and something meaningful breaks. Plastic balls? They can bounce. They can wait. They can be dropped without major consequences.

I’m breaking down:

• How to define what’s really urgent vs. what can wait

• Why shared mental load and aligned priorities matter in partnerships

• How to do regular check-ins with your partner so resentment doesn’t build

• Practical examples to start applying this mindset today

This conversation will help you communicate with more clarity, protect your energy, and stop the never-ending feeling of failure when your to-do list overflows. ✨

💬 When you and your partner can name the priorities together, everything changes.

🎧 Listen in and learn how this one mindset shift can transform your relationship and your peace of mind.
