Ep 20 | Learning to share your mental load - Part 1
Welcome to this two-part series on learning how to share your mental load.
In this episode, I talk about the impact of the mental load on mothers and learning how to share your mental load.
The impact of the mental load includes feeling undervalued, resentful, and unable to switch off. It leads to sleepless nights, exhaustion, and difficulty being present in the moment.
By learning how to share your mental load, you can take back control of your life, and the joy of being more present with your family, having guilt-free rest, and even finding time for hobbies and interests that have been pushed aside.
In this episode, you will learn:
- How to identify and understand the mental load and its impact on your life
- Some reasons that you might be holding on to for not sharing your mental load.
- Strategies for open communication with your partner and family about the mental load.
- Tips for sharing the mental load and creating a more balanced, joyful life.
For many mums, the invisible mental load of running a household can be overwhelming. Our brains are often in a constant whirlwind of shoulds, have to's, and juggles.
So join me in Part 1 of this two part series, and let's break it down and talk about it.
