024: Untangling Women's Second Shift; Managing Mental Load

from Untangling Me: The Podcast Hosted by Untangling Me

Even with involved partners and intentional steps towards equity, the best relationships feel one-sided sometimes in terms of physical, emotional, and mental attention families need. Join us as we continue our conversation about the challenges women face with the concept of "second shift" and unbalanced mental load in their day to day lives. We'll share some resources we've found and our own experiences over 25+ years of marriage and 20+ years of parenting. Episode Resources Drained: Reduce Your Mental Load to Do Less and Be More by Leah Ruppanner PhD (Tracey's rec and current read) IG: @beahappierparent What’s on Her Mind: The Mental Workload of Family Life by Allison Daminger (from IG post)
