In this episode, we unpack two of three prongs to what encapsulates the “Mental Load”:
<ol>
 	<li>Planning, Organizing + Anticipating = Cost of Cognitive Labor, Time Currency Spent + Decision Fatigue</li>
 	<li> Honest Mom Moments: “I don’t like myself right now.”</li>
</ol>
Reporting the moments when people around you, no matter the circumstance, don’t understand what is at play and you not even liking yourself!
In “Moms Talk Autism” fashion we “download” about our lives on this episode, past and current events.
There are many definitions and research around this topic, that we tie into the discussion or keep in mind. This is essential and we urge you to do your own deep dives to become more acquainted to what we are actually experiencing.

Moms Talk the Mental Load: Part 1

The Moms Talk Autism Podcast is for parents raising children with special needs. 

We are four moms, all with autistic children and other neurodivergence.

Teaching a special needs child to navigate the world around them comes with challenges and struggles. We want to talk about those challenges openly with you and others. We discuss grief, school, family balance, siblings, therapies, social conversations, behaviors, delays, diagnosis advocation, and marriage.

We do not hold degrees in medicine or neuroscience, nor are we special education teachers, but we are experts in raising our kids and figuring out everything as we go.

Think of this podcast as a coffee shop chat with your closest girlfriends. We want to talk, raise awareness, and help each other thrive with our neurodivergent families in a neurotypical world.
