Do you ever feel like if you didn’t do it, it just wouldn’t get done? The laundry, the appointments, the meals, the moods, the mental checklists that never seem to end. It’s called the mental load of motherhood — and if you’re the default parent, it can feel like you’re carrying the world on your shoulders.

In this episode of Midlife Unscripted, we’re talking about how to share the weight without losing yourself. You’ll learn how to recognize the invisible load you’ve been carrying, why resentment sneaks in when it goes unspoken, and how to step out of “martyr mom” mode into real partnership at home.

Through honest conversation and faith-filled encouragement, we’ll look at what it means to let go of control, set healthy boundaries, and trust God to carry what we can’t. Because in this season of midlife motherhood, you don’t have to do it all — and you were never meant to.

If you’ve been feeling unseen, overwhelmed, or stuck in “I’ll just do it myself” mode, this episode will help you find peace, strength, and confidence again.

✨ You’ll learn how to:

• Recognize and name the invisible load you’re carrying

• Stop letting resentment quietly damage your relationships

• Ask for help and create partnership in your home

• Let go of guilt and trust God with what’s too heavy to carry alone

Tune in to rediscover your energy, confidence, and joy — one small shift at a time.

Listen now and share this episode with a mom friend who’s been carrying it all — because we’re not meant to do motherhood alone.
