Who in your house knows when you're running low on toilet roll? Right. And who noticed the permission slip, the dentist appointment, the birthday present, the school shoes, and the fact that the washing machine has a filter?
Just you?
Welcome to the mental load.
In this episode, Sarah gets into the invisible cognitive labour that is quietly exhausting mothers everywhere - what it actually is, what it does to your identity and your sense of self, and what genuinely helps. Not a rant, not a list of things to ask your partner to do. Something more useful than that.
We talk about naming it, externalising it, letting some of it go, and - most importantly - what becomes possible when your brain finally has a bit of space in it.
Reflection prompts What's one thing on the mental load you could genuinely hand over, and actually let go?
AND What would you think about if you weren't thinking about everyone else's stuff?
