128: Unpacking Gender Norms Part 2: How to Share the Mental Load with Gender Expert Kate Mangino, Ph.D.

from Momwell

Modern moms carry an unfair share of the invisible load—the mental and emotional labour of taking care of the house and raising the kids. The problem is widespread—and breaking out of the pattern can be tough. But with the right approach, we can learn how to share the mental load at home in a fair and intentional way. I sat down with Kate Mangino, gender expert and author of Equal Partners: Improving Gender Equality at Home for a two-part discussion on the way gender norms shape the distribution of labour in the home. In part 1, we discussed the impact of that imbalance. Today, we dive into ways we unintentionally reinforce gender norms and how to break away from them.  Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3ArFukU Book a Free 15 min Consult with a mom therapist: happyasamother.co/wellness  Follow Happy as a Mother on Instagram: instagram.com/happyasamother  Sign up for our weekly VIP Newsletter: happyasamother.co/newsletter  Register for one of our popular workshops: happyasamother.co/shop  Learn more about your ad choices.
