Show Notes

For women blending motherhood and work, often one of the hardest parts of the mental load is that it’s often not shared. 

We feel like we can’t talk about it, which makes it hard for anyone to really be able to help. But the reality is, there are so many roles each of us can play to help ease the burden for each other. 

All those little (and not-so-little) tasks that pile up in a working mother's brain can cause a heavy mental load. 

This never-ending list can make anyone feel like they're losing their mind. If you’re struggling with any of the following, know that you’re not alone in experiencing these symptoms of burnout: 


  1. Brain fog
  2. Trouble sleeping
  3. Anxious thoughts
  4. Having a short fuse
  5. Family drama
  6. Not being present
  7. Lack of motivation 


We’ll take a look at some tips on how to combat this overwhelm and make sure we stay on a healthy and sustainable track. 


Women,  I see you, and I hear you and I am you. To those amazing men who listen to this podcast, please check in with the women in your lives and ask them how they're going. 


Let’s not be afraid to keep these conversations going so that working women everywhere can feel safe to unload their burdens and begin to thrive, one step at a time.
