About this listen

The Weight of Tomorrow: This is a podcast conversation about an essay called The Weight of Tomorrow from the book Ghosts of Parenting. The episode explores how parenting carries the future inside the present, not as planning or anxiety, but as a quiet, ongoing pressure that shapes attention, care, and exhaustion over time. It names the invisible load parents hold, the way tomorrow lives in ordinary moments, and how this weight deepens through repetition, responsibility, and love. The conversation speaks to the structural reality of living with a child’s future close to the body, explaining why this forward pull can feel heavy when unnamed, and how it begins to soften when clearly seen, not through solutions, but through recognition.
