Ep 18. Mental Load

from Parental Well-Being Podcast Hosted by Shirena Vasan

When you have children there seems to be unending things to think about. Feeding times, nap times, playtime, transitioning to solid food. Organising kindergarten or daycare, making packed lunches and deciding what to put in it. Managing the household needs such as the constant washing and cleaning. Mental Load is this invisible work that goes behind childcare and managing household and domestic duties. The planning, managing, anticipating needs. and the cognitive load and emotional labour that goes with it. In this episode I talk to psychologist Christina Bond about Mental Load, what it is, and how to manage it. Christina is the co-founder of Matrescence NZ https://www.matrescence.nz/ You can also contact Christina via https://www.maternalpsychology.nz/
