REAL TALK - The Mental Load with Liv & Leonie

This week I have my bestie Liv back on the podcast to talk all things 'mental load'. You know all of the invisible work that you do at home, to keep your household running; cooking dinner, childcare drop-off, packing lunches, washing clothes... the list goes on.

We discuss what the mental load looks like in our households and how we manage the great juggle of parenthood. We also share the results from the Mental Load quiz that you all answered a few weeks back. The response was VERY insightful and really just a good laugh.
