The Mental Load Fallacy: Understanding Working Mother's Dissatisfaction

from Psychobabble · host Hannah Spier, MD

In this episode, we're delving deep into the popular concept of "mental load". First, we uncover how this issue is addressed today by showing you videos of contemporary therapists as well as what working mothers themselves post online. By sharing insights from therapy sessions and draw on new data from egalitarian countries, we'll get to the root of women's dissatisfaction in the modern family structure and how it should be understood and approached therapeutically. Join us as we expose false narratives and its implications for modern relationships and well-being.
