Ep. 208: Mother’s Day Doesn’t Fix The Mental Load
Manage episode 480690347 series 3302755
Mother’s Day is supposed to be a celebration of moms—but for many of us, it just ends up highlighting how much we’re carrying, how little help we’re getting, and how unseen we feel most of the time. While the cards and flowers are sweet, they don’t solve the deeper issue of the mental load so many moms are buried under. In this episode, I’m getting real about what’s really going on beneath the surface, and why one day of appreciation isn’t enough when you’re carrying it all the other 364. I’ll walk you through the steps I took to get out of resentment, build true partnership, and create a system where I feel supported every day—not just on Mother’s Day.
Tune in to discover:
Why the mental load is about way more than just household tasks
What your heart is actually craving (and it’s not a better gift)
How to feel more emotionally supported by your spouse
The difference between a “manager” and a true partner—and how to shift out of that role
What to ask for when you’re tired of holding it all alone
This episode is for every mom who feels like one day of celebration just isn’t enough (because it’s not). Let’s create the kind of marriage and support system that makes every day feel like you matter.
