Journey Within - Burned Out But Not Broken

Patriarchy, Gender Roles, & Equal Division of Labor [The Game is Rigged]

Listen Later

Why are women so prone to burn out? In this episode I'm going to talk about why the game is rigged for women. Your awareness of how the game is rigged can free you from the trappings of the game.  You owe it to yourself, your daughters, and your nieces to listen to this episode.


Shownotes: 

  1. The game is rigged, and Patriarchy is the name of the game.
  2. Stereotypical gender roles, discrimination, and the glass ceiling are all examples of modern day patriarchy.
  3. Human Giver Syndrome tells women that they have to give away every drop of their humanity to keep others happy. It’s whack.
  4. Women are often expected to take on more “unpaid labor” in the household. Tracking paid and unpaid labor, and re-dividing labor may be needed if you are feeling burned out and overwhelmed.  If this is a hot topic already, it may be time for marriage counseling to come to an agreeable compromise.
