Episode 11 - The invisible mental load

from The Health Connection Podcast · host Mari Craig

In this episode of The Health Connection, Mari and Amy shine a light on the invisible mental load so many busy mums carry every day. From managing endless to-do lists to holding everyone else’s needs in mind, they explore how this load often goes unspoken and unshared, even within supportive families. They discuss the stress that builds as a result and the ripple effect it can have on energy levels, mood, and overall health. This episode isn’t about solutions or strategies, but about recognition and reassurance; a reminder that if this feels familiar, you’re not alone, and it’s not a personal failing.
