It’s Not Just the Thing—It’s All the Things
Manage episode 498680819 series 3682079
In this premiere episode of The Mental Load Chronicles, one married couple kicks off their real-time journey to rebalance the invisible labor of family life. This episode gets brutally honest about what it really takes to “keep the household running.”
It’s vulnerable. It’s relatable. And it’s probably your life, too.
This episode sets the tone for a podcast that blends humor, honesty, and hope while diving into the unspoken work so many of us carry—but rarely name.
In this episode:
- What makes invisible labor feel so heavy
- Why “just helping out” isn’t the same as owning a task
- A preview of next week’s attempt to rebalance everything (spoiler: it involves a card game)
