If you've ever felt like you're doing everything in your household—while your partner somehow has time to watch SportsCenter or scroll on their phone—you're not alone. Managing the invisible load of running a home and family can feel like an unpaid, full-time job on top of everything else you do. And if you're navigating sobriety, the stress, resentment, and exhaustion can feel even heavier—because now you're no longer using alcohol as a “reward” or a way to take the edge off. I asked Eve Rodsky, author of Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live), to share how you can rebalance the division of labor in your home, set boundaries that stick, and reclaim your time—without the guilt, resentment, or endless arguments.

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls' Night! I'm so excited about today's episode. Today we're talking about how to get on the same page about household responsibilities with your spouse. Question for you – Do you and your spouse (or partner or roommate) ever have a hard time figuring out who is responsible for managing certain household tasks? This could apply to chores, paying bills, or making meals. Okay, another question for you – Are you frustrated because the majority of household tasks always seem to fall on you? Friends, I've lived in that tension before, but, today's guest (and her book) changed everything for me and my relationships in general! Our guest for today's episode is my new friend, Eve Rodsky. Eve is an expert on the gender division of labor. She wrote one of my favorite books called, Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live). In it, she discusses the issue of unequal labor in the home, why this is hurting our relationships, and what we can do to fix it. One of my favorite parts of the episode is when she explains the concept of being the “She Fault” and why so much of the domestic work falls in the hands of women. More about that soon! Friends, whether you're married, engaged, single, or dating, I know there's something for you in this episode! Okay, one more quick thing before we dive in – I wanted to let you know that there are a handful of cuss words in this episode, so if you're listening with tiny ears around that repeat everything like my girls do, maybe put some headphones in for this conversation! Alright, let's jump into my conversation with Eve! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I love each and every guest we've had on this show, but I'm just gonna say it: for me at least, this episode is probably the most important and relevant one we've done yet. Today we have Eve Rodsky, the Harvard-trained author of Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live).I personally credit Eve's ideas – and the playing cards that help you implement them – with making the “invisible work” of running my own household visible, and equitably dividing that work with my husband.As you'll hear today, Eve embarked on this journey to find answers to her own problem. After becoming a mom of two, she watched as she became the default doer of the things, all while feeling sidelined in her career and “abandoned” by her husband (whom she still loved).In other words, her “Sh*t I Do” list grew longer and longer without any real discussion of who should actually do what.Fair Play is the antidote to that problem, and this episode breaks down the method in detail. You'll come away equipped to start a conversation with your partner; identify and fairly divide responsibilities; create space for yourself; and ultimately live a happier, healthier life.Eve and I also get into:* Why household labor tends to be so unequal* Men over-reporting and women under-reporting their contributions* How to raise this topic with your partner* What Fair Play looks like in action in my own marriage* “He's the income earner. So shouldn't I handle everything in the home?”* Understanding the different types of labor (daily grind vs. on your own time)* Hard-to-define responsibilities like spirituality and “magic” (tooth fairy, etc.)* Why it's so important to own a task completely* Eve's key to staying happy even as you shoulder more responsibility in lifeLinks: * Fair Play book* Fair Play cards* Fair Play documentary* Eve's second book, Find Your Unicorn Space* Eve's podcast with Dr. Aditi NerurkarSubscribe to my weekly recipe newsletter here: https://whattocook.substack.com Get full access to What To Cook When You Don't Feel Like Cooking at whattocook.substack.com/subscribe
Invisible labor. It's the work — in our households especially — that has to happen but that no one sees. It's making the doctor's appointment, ensuring the Valentine's cards are purchased, remembering the milk. When we think about equity in household labor, we often find that there are already inequities in the visible work, and they can become insurmountable when the invisible work is added in. Today on ParentData, Eve Rodsky joins with some solutions to this seemingly endless task list of problems. Her book, “Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live),” and the movement it's inspired, aims to rebalance workloads and encourage hard conversations, saving time, sanity, and even marriages along the way.

The girls are back and it's a new season (and new year!) of Mother Up! In this episode, Kacie and Gianna reflect on the holiday season and the emotional toll that can come along with traveling, group gatherings, and the realization that you are likely the one in charge of creating your child's holiday memories now. They also discuss recent adventures and events - how Kacie got spontaneous by taking a last minute trip to Cabo, and how Gianna thrives under pressure when it comes to outfit planning. As they share heartwarming moments and open up about the challenges of motherhood, their conversation touches on the importance of vulnerability in relationships, self-care practices (why they're more important now than ever), the fair play method, and what you can expect in upcoming episodes!

Who knew that a text about blueberries could nearly end a marriage? Eve Rodsky received a text from her husband, Seth, asking why she didn't pick up blueberries at the store—and it sparked a movement that has saved countless marriages and made women's time and the value of it a topic in the forefront of conversation. A Harvard-educated lawyer, Eve is the author of two of my favorite books: Fair Play: A Game Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) and Find Your Unicorn Space: Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too Busy World. Both books, at their core, are about time: in Fair Play, how to create a more equitable division of labor within a household, and in Find Your Unicorn Space, how to create—period. Creativity, as Eve argues, is not optional—it is essential, and makes us more interested and interesting. This is an interview I've wanted to have for years and am so thankful to have made it happen, hence its release on Thanksgiving. Both books are essential to modern womanhood (and personhood, really), and are groundbreaking in their respective approaches. Two must reads, and a must listen.

Conversations around women and work are complicated, often heated, and rarely satisfying. The heart of the issue for women is: how can we thrive in our capacity for productive work as well as provide care for others (children, aging parents, and other loved ones). This conversation hit fever pitch during the pandemic and it seems we've been in a prolonged season of flux since then. The conversation in the church feels tense too. There's been a gap in discipleship regarding women and work for decades now, and trusted voices are few. Not only that, but women often endure conflict or judgment from both sides of the work vs. stay home divide. We need to be having a better conversation. On this episode of All Things we are having that conversation! Joanna Meyer, the founder of Women, Work, & Calling (an initiative of the Denver Institute of Faith & Work), helps us think biblically and practically about the issues of work and family that women face today. She invites us to think more holistically and it's so helpful. We are all made for productive work, so I invite you listen for some soul-deep encouragement.You can learn more about Joanna Meyer's work here: https://denverinstitute.org/contributor/joanna-meyer/ You can learn more about Women, Work & Calling here: https://www.womenworkandcalling.com/ Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live): https://amzn.to/3S31jh9 Called Together: A Biblical Look at Gender in the Workplace by Joanna Meyer: https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/view/63855492/calledtogether-final Women & Work: https://womenwork.net/

Today's guest is Eve Rodsky. She wrote the book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live), which gamifies the life management system to help partners and families reimagine their relationships. She's elevated the cultural conversation about the value of unpaid labor and care, and provides a system that trades in assumptions for values based decision-making. Asking the simple, yet profound question, “what would happen if we treated our homes as our most important organization?” Eve's New York Times bestselling book was one of Reese's book club picks, followed by an award-winning documentary and book sequel “Find Your Unicorn Space: How to Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too Busy World.”We also cover…00:02:08 — Bringing Awareness to the ‘Invisible Work' ConversationHousehold inequalities that prevent us from exploring our creative spaceGoing from a lawyer to a gender division of labor expertHer dreams of smashing glass ceilings to feeling emotionally and physically abandoned at work and at homeThe start of her Fair Play journey after becoming a mother of twoLearning that 93% of household work is done by mothersWhy invisible work remains unseen for late stage capitalist patriarchy to continuePushing for equality in the school system 00:11:40 – Quantifying the “Sh*t I do” Spreadsheets for Maternal tasksDispelling the conditioned belief placed on mothers to manage the householdCreate an ownership mindset with Fair Play cardsHow the ‘lead dad' movement started creating more connection in their livesTurning the mom and dad job description into an even playing field Kelly's take on her non-traditional household & addressing mom guiltSharing the Magic Suit (invisible workload)Checking in with your partner to divide up the workloadHow taking ownership and accountability for mistakes creates new relationship dynamics00:24:35 — Setting Boundaries, Systems, and Communication in the Home Learning to treat your home as the most important organizationApplying her project management skills to her own homeSetting boundaries around your ‘availability' as a mother“Why did I have to earn my own personal time?”The generational disconnect: from selfless to selfishWomen's time being infinite like sand, and men's time being finite like diamondsChanging the narrative that has led us to become compliant in our own oppression00:38:08 — Protecting Your Unicorn Space3 exercises to create curiosity, connection, and completionDefining your guilt & shame Setting up your Unicorn Space by outlining your valuesCreating the system behind setting boundariesWhy stripping your values strips you of yourselfHonoring your partner's creative spaceTrade in assumptions for value-based decision making with Fair Play & Unicorn SpaceResources:Website: EveRodsky.com Instagram: @everodskyInstagram:

On the surface, it may seem you and your partner put in equal parts effort when it comes to the home, relationship, and parenting. But underneath all the tangible to-dos lives an invisible emotional layer of emotional labor. There's a level of exhaustion brought on by the constant, unrelenting consideration of others that women are so familiar with. It's thanks to Eve Rodsky that I'm even aware of this phenomenon, let alone have the vocabulary to express it. She's out on a mission to change 21st-century relationships by giving a solution to an age-old problem: The uneven domestic and childcare burden carried mostly by women. She turned a personal breakdown into the catalyst for change that led to one profound question: What if we treated our homes as our most important organization? Her NYT bestselling book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) is a system to help couples rebalance the burden and reimagine their relationships. She gives us the magic formula for “fair play” in the home and learning to see the undervalued thought work that goes behind the obvious execution.

I'm so excited to have Eve Rodsky on the podcast again! Eve first joined me on the podcast back in episode #312 where she discussed her book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live). I highly recommend going back and listening to that episode so you have a foundational understanding of the concept of Fair Play. Since she was here last time, she has released the Fair Play Documentary that I also think you should go watch. In this episode, Eve and I discuss the invisible work being done at home and how society has tried to erase the gender division of labor in the home. So much focus has been on women and giving women tools to better balance work life and home life. Eve found it difficult through Fair Play to give solutions to families who said that both the man and the woman in the household were doing a task. Enter the mustard. How did the mustard get into your refrigerator? This is a great example that you have to hear Eve use to explain the difference between the execution of a task versus the cognitive labor related to a task. It's eye-opening! We then discuss some of Eve's family background growing up with a single mom as well as my daughter Abby's life as a single mom today. A large number of children each year are both to single moms. These single moms are unfortunately at a disadvantage because they are usually holding all of the cards for their families and therefore have fewer work and income opportunities available. Eve also walks me through an exercise that I hope you will also do for yourself. First, what is an activity outside of your roles that you love to do and share with the world? This goes beyond self-care or exercise or pleasure reading. Second, what is something you love to do? What values does doing this thing bring up for you? I of course talked about travel and learning, but Eve helped me see how understanding the values underneath these things will help you find activities that can bring up these values for you even when you're unable to do the activities you really want to do. I hope you enjoyed this conversation with Eve Rodsky as much as I did!

Today, Michael Perry and I are diving in to how parenting and more importantly, parent involvement has changed over the years. As Maple's campaign mentions, we're going from 1950 to 50/50! We are joined by our dear friend and fair play expert, Eve Rodsky. Eve is the New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live). She received her B.A. in economics and anthropology from the University of Michigan, and her J.D. from Harvard Law School. After working in foundation management at J.P. Morgan, she founded the Philanthropy Advisory Group to advise high-net-worth families and charitable foundations on best practices for harmonious operations, governance and disposition of funds. In her work with hundreds of families over a decade, she realized that her expertise in family mediation, strategy, and organizational management could be applied to a problem closer to home – a system for couples seeking balance, efficiency, and peace in their home. Rodsky was born and raised by a single mom in New York City and now lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their three children.

For so long a time, regardless of their work, women take on at least two-thirds of what it takes for the family to thrive. For those who are co-breadwinners, that means even more. Unfortunately, most of these have been left invisible and unheard of. Somehow, this has even become a huge source of mommy guilt, when a wife feels injustice over her disproportionate share of the household labor including emotional.In the workplace, this injustice is equally evident. Even when a woman works with the same level of demand, pressure, and importance as a man, she gets paid less. Woman's time is less valued than man's too. And when they both go home, she is expected to multi-task and take charge of all the cards while he enjoys much liberty and time. And yet again, she cannot seem to complain. This vicious pattern has become so embedded in the culture that she cannot seem to do anything within. Recognizing that this is such a universal systemic problem, Eve Rodsky started to revolutionize and change her life by unlearning so many things beginning ten years ago. It saved her own marriage and has helped many women since.In this episode, we talk about we are joined by Eve Rodsky as we discuss the "Fair Play Formula" and other key terms such as Conception, Planning, and Execution as well as Boundaries, System, and Communication, among others.----------Eve Rodsky is the New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) and its highly anticipated follow-up, Find Your Unicorn Space: Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too-Busy World (December 28, 2021).Connect with Eve via the following:Website: https://www.everodsky.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/everodskyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/everodskyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eve-rodsky-a26ba6552 Weeks of Me is hosted by Jacklyn Osborne and Erika Brooks.Check out our website - www.52weeksofme.net or follow us on Instagram @fiftytwoweeksofme.For suggestions and comments, email us at fiftytwoweeksofme@gmail.com.

In this episode, the Moms dig deep into an issue that mothers have faced for decades: the mental load. If you're a mom, you know exactly what we mean. The constant juggling of tasks, lists, requirements, details, inventories, and schedules for an entire household falls disproportionately on the shoulders of moms, but shouldn't dads be asked to carry some of that weight? Though addressing this particular topic can sometimes devolve into an opportunity to complain about husbands, listeners will be delighted to hear Melissa and Leah take a much more productive approach to managing the mental load by asking partners to collaborate.The Book Blurb in this episode is from Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) by Eve Rodsky.

The Mental Load of Motherhood The mental load is a term for the invisible labor involved in managing a household and family. MOTHERS AS CAPTAIN Cicciola and Luthar, 2016 Invisible Household Labor and Ramifications for Adjustment: Mothers as Captains of Households In the study, they sought to capture mothers' felt obligations as the “captain of the ship” that was their household, that is, the extent to which mothers felt that they, more so than their spouses, shouldered responsibility for the management of the home. WHY IT HAPPENS Descriptive and prescriptive stereotypes MEASURES Emotional intimacy Physical intimacy Satisfaction with partner Parenting role overload Overall life satisfaction and emptiness HOW TO IDENTIFY OVERLOAD Burnout and depletion Resentment and dissatisfaction Overwhelm Feeling unseen MANAGING THE LOAD Heighten awareness among today's mothers of the degree to which and areas in which they might unwittingly shoulder disproportionate household responsibilities as compared to men, along with the potential fallouts. “Mothering mothers” (Luthar and Ciciolla 2016, p. 1820). Society should consider the magnitude of responsibilities mothers take on at home and at work, and equally, the degree to which mothers have opportunities to prioritize and make time for authentic connections with others to replenish themselves. HOW TO NAVIGATE THE MENTAL LOAD Share concrete examples of your mental load—> write them down Ask for help with the management, not just chores Continuous communication Delegate and outsource Task lists/ Project management Prioritize rest and self care Deconstruct gender stereotypes with partner and kids Fair Play:” A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) - Eve Rodsky Invisible Household Labor and Ramifications for Adjustment: Mothers as Captains of Households - Cicciola and Luthar, 2016
Eve Rodsky | Fair Play | Book Review by Lisa Woodruff of Organize 365 On Mondays, I will be posting a podcast recording of previously recorded book reviews. These are books that have impacted me that I want to share with you. In May, the Organize 365 book reviews will focus on estate planning and home organizing. This week I am reviewing Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) by Eve Rodsky. This came out in the Fall of 2019 and I interviewed Eve on the Organize 365 Podcast in December 2019 (Episode 312). One of the things I struggled to articulate for years was the mental load I had as the female parent in our family with two kids. Women tend to do more physical in home care and tend to carry the mental load of caring for the home and family. In the book, she helps us identify the many parts of simple tasks like “making dinner” - the meal planning, the grocery shopping, the food preferences of each family member, the food preparation, and even the clean up after eating. Not only does this book make you think about the division of labor in your home and family, it explains how we unpack our feelings and better distribute the load. It helps us to level the playing field in our families. If you are looking for a solution to the problem of mental load, Eve has it for you. You can also watch this as a video review on YouTube.

Psychologists Off The Clock: A Psychology Podcast About The Science And Practice Of Living Well
For far too long, women have been held responsible for completing an unfair share of work (especially invisible labor) at home. Even if a woman works a full-time job outside of the home, she is often also expected to complete the majority of domestic and emotional labor. What's to be done about all the “invisible work” women do to keep partnerships afloat? In today's episode of Psychologists Off the Clock, Eve Rodsky, author of Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live), and co-host Jill answer that question. Women have been held to an unreachable standard for too long. Now, take a breather, and join us to learn about creating equal partnerships at home, navigating unmanageable demands, and much, much more! Listen and Learn: About Jill, Diana, and Eve's personal struggles with trying to be the perfect partner, mother, and worker How an invisible “I should do” list might be affecting your life and your relationship Some important (and shocking!) statistics on how motherhood affects women Why women's invisible workload matters and how you can help shift the system that supports it Eve's breakdown of Fair Play - her empirically based, step-by-step system for impacting lasting change in your partnership The important differences between playing fair and keeping score with your partner How modeling good-partner-behavior might impact your kids for the better About Jill's experience playing Eve's card-game, The Fair Play Deck (and Eve's tips-and-tricks for playing fairly) How to connect your work-time balance to your values through a minimum standard of care Resources: Eve's book, Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) The accompanying card deck for Eve's book, The Fair Play Deck: A Couple's Conversation Deck for Prioritizing What's Important Marianne Cooper's work on women in the workplace and more Jill's 2020 report on women in the workplace About Eve Rodsky, J.D. Eve Rodsky is working to change society one marriage at a time by coming up with a new 21st century solution to an age-old problem: women shouldering the brunt of childrearing and domestic life responsibilities regardless of whether they work outside the home. In her New York Times bestselling book Fair Play, she uses her Harvard Law School training and years of organizational management experience to create a life-management system to help couples both rebalance all of the work it takes to run a home and reimagine their relationship, time and purpose. Eve Rodsky received her B.A. in economics and anthropology from the University of Michigan, and her J.D. from Harvard Law School. After working in foundation management at J.P. Morgan, she founded the Philanthropy Advisory Group to advise high-net worth families and charitable foundations on best practices for harmonious operations, governance and disposition of funds. In her work with hundreds of families over a decade, she realized that her expertise in family mediation, strategy, and organizational management could be applied to a problem closer to home – a system for couples seeking balance, efficiency, and peace in their home. Rodsky was born and raised by a single mom in New York City and now lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their three children. Visit her website to learn more! Related Episodes: Episode 137.

There are more women earning college degrees and participating in the workforce than ever before. Even still, women spend far more time on unpaid labor than men. Eve Rodsky, author of the new book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live), seeks to address this universal imbalance. Rodsky began her journey to address this inequality after reaching a tipping point in her own marriage. After recording all of the unrecognized work she was doing for her busy household, she realized the disparity between her and her partner was striking. Fair Play offers four simple and practical steps to redistribute invisible work, reignite your relationship and reclaim your own time. Join Eve Rodsky and INFORUM on the quest for domestic rebalance. ** This Podcast Contains EXPLICIT Language ** Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
