Let’s talk mental loads. Specifically, for us Mamas.
It’s a LOT, that’s not really the secret here. But I think the more we discuss it, the more we can understand the load from every Mom’s perspective - working, not working, part-time, remote… married, not married… 2 kids, 10 kids… all of it.
Paige Turner joins me to break it all down, and I think you’ll love her perspective on balancing and prioritizing roles. Let’s just say there’s beauty in boundaries.
Episode Highlights:
-How having kids affects your relationship with your career
-The pressure we put on ourselves to do every damn thing
-The importance of a village, and why sometimes that means paying someone
-Navigating marriage and relationships after kids
-Growing and adapting as parents, together
