The First Years

The Mental Load of Motherhood

Listen Later

In this episode, we are diving deep into the mental load of motherhood.


What goes on inside a mother's mind on a daily basis is something you never really get until you become a mom yourself.


We talk about:

  • The mental load of daily tasks
  • How sometimes it prevents us from asking for help because sometimes it is easier to do things on your own
  • Some of the mental load we have put on our selves and why setting boundaries and not feeling like you need to "save" your partner from having to figure out a task on their own can get in your way
  • Tips and tricks for lightening the mental load.
