Podcasts about mental load

You know what's pretty f*cked up? Some of us are literally stressing ourselves sick because we can't MF decide. Turns out, sitting on the fence hurts more than your butthole. Press play and become the person who is willing to be an action taker.    Oh, and remember to send this episode to the friend who's been "thinking about it" for six months... because she's so afraid of making the wrong decision that she's accidentally making the same one every single day.   PS. If you're done letting self-doubt call the shots, THIS is for you

Hast du manchmal das Gefühl, dass du eigentlich gar nicht mehr in den Job passt, den du jeden Tag machst? Nach außen hin läuft alles super – du funktionierst, erledigst deine Aufgaben und bringst dein Gehalt nach Hause. Doch innerlich spürst du, dass etwas nicht mehr stimmt. Du bist ständig gestresst, kannst deine wahren Fähigkeiten kaum einbringen oder musst dich jeden Tag ein kleines Stück verbiegen. Viele Menschen bleiben jahrelang in Berufen, die sie energetisch komplett auslaugen, und fangen irgendwann an, den Fehler bei sich selbst zu suchen. Doch unzufrieden im Job zu sein, ist kein unumstößliches Gesetz, sondern ein klares Signal deines Körpers.In dieser Folge tauche ich gemeinsam mit der Karriere-Expertin und Autorin Jenna van Hauten unter die Oberfläche der modernen Arbeitswelt. Wir sprechen darüber, warum so viele Frauen weit unter ihrem eigentlichen Potenzial bleiben, wie sich Wertekonflikte und chronische Anspannung körperlich bemerkbar machen und wie ein echtes Umdenken in Sachen Leistung und Berufung aussieht. Pünktlich zum Erscheinen ihres neuen Buches (seit dem 22. Juni erhältlich) zeigt Jenna auf, wie wir die blinden Flecken für unsere eigenen Stärken auflösen und warum beruflicher Erfolg absolut keine harten Ellenbogen braucht.Das kannst du für dich aus der Folge mitnehmen:Warum du selten wirklich im Moment lebst: Wie das ständige Funktionieren und Aushalten im falschen Berufszusammenhang dazu führt, dass du dich im Alltag emotional taub fühlst und innerlich ausbrennst.Was Daueranspannung mit Präsenz und Zeitgefühl macht: Warum dein Nervensystem den ungesunden Stress im Job paradoxerweise als „sicheren Hafen“ abspeichert, während dein Körper parallel mit Migräne, Schlafstörungen oder Rückenschmerzen reagiert.Wie du wieder mehr Ruhe und Raum in dir wahrnehmen kannst: Warum der Schlüssel für berufliche Veränderung nicht die nächste fachliche Weiterbildung ist, sondern ein reguliertes Nervensystem, das neue Wege überhaupt erst sicher zulässt.Die Suppen-Analogy (Eine Übung, die es in sich hat): Wie du über Jennas Persönlichkeitsansatz herausfindest, welche energetischen „Zutaten“ in deinem Arbeits-Smoothie fehlen und wie schon minimale Stellschrauben deinen gesamten Alltag shiften. Eine inspirierende Folge für alle Frauen, die aufhören wollen, sich für die Karriere zu verbiegen, und bereit sind, den Platz einzunehmen, der ihrer wahren Essenz entspricht.Mehr zu Jenna: WebsiteInstagram Zum Buch "Endlich ein Job, der zu mir passt!"Zum Kurz-Persönlichkeitstest Mehr zu mir: Komm ins Gruppenprogramm Silent ResetNewsletterBuche dir hier dein Kennenlern-Gespräch mit mirWebseiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInMöchtest Du in Balance zum Erfolg

Motherhood has never come with more information, advice, and expectations than it does today. Every scroll through social media offers another parenting expert, another strategy, and another reminder of what we "should" be doing. While access to information can be helpful, it can also leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and wondering if we're ever doing enough.In this powerful conversation, Dr. Morgan Cutlip explores the invisible mental and emotional load that so many moms carry. From managing household responsibilities to regulating emotions, coordinating schedules, and trying to create the perfect childhood, the pressure can feel relentless.We discuss why comparison is a natural human tendency, how expectations formed throughout our lives can quietly shape our parenting, and why unmet expectations often become the roots of resentment. Dr. Morgan shares practical ways to have honest conversations with your partner about parenting pressures and the frustrations that keep surfacing.One of the most meaningful parts of this conversation is the idea of choosing a parenting anchor. Instead of trying to excel in every area, what if you focused on one thing that matters most in this season? Having an anchor gives us something steady to return to when the noise and expectations start pulling us in every direction.Most importantly, this episode is an invitation for moms to share their real stories. When we talk honestly about the challenges, frustrations, and growing pains of motherhood, we help other women realize they are not alone. The more we pull back the curtain on the realities of parenting, the less power shame, guilt, and comparison have over us.If you've ever felt weighed down by the mental load of motherhood, struggled with unrealistic expectations, or wondered if everyone else has it figured out, this conversation is for you. In This Episode We Discuss: The three zones of energy: physical, mental, and emotional Why emotional labor is often the most draining part of motherhood How information overload is making parenting feel harder Expectations, resentment, and relationship challenges after becoming parents Practical conversations couples can have about parenting pressures Choosing a parenting anchor for your current season The concept of intensive mothering and the guilt it creates Raising resilient kids without burning yourself out The power of sharing authentic stories and supporting one another Connect with Dr. Morgan Cutlip:  Website: Dr. Morgan Cutlip  Instagram: Dr. Morgan Cutlip | Mental Load, Marriage and Motherhood (@drmorgancutlip) Links Mentioned:  A Better Share: By Morgan Cutlip [book] Love Your Kids Without Losing Yourself [book] The MomCo [mom ministry] Better Share  [quiz] Motherhood Reflection Guide [pdf] Related Episodes: Unpacking Moms' Mental Load :: Dr. Morgan Cutlip [Ep 503] From Overwhelmed to Anchored: Replacing the Lies of Motherhood with God's Truth :: Erica Gwynn [Ep 544] Organize Your Mental Load  :: Laurel Denise [Ep 444] Featured Sponsors:  LifePro: For a limited time, our listeners can get $20 OFF the Waver Vibration Plate plus Free Shipping with code [DMA] at lifeprofitness.com Square: If you're starting a business, or running one that deserves better tools, Square helps you sell, manage, and grow without slowing down.

Leah posted one question on Instagram — "What do you hold to a higher standard in your household than anyone else?" — and got 26,000 views and 200 comments. The answer that came through louder than anything else? The clutter. The piles. The stuff that just sits there while everyone walks past it pretending it doesn't exist. In this episode of MissPerceived, Professor Leah Ruppanner unpacks why household clutter is so emotionally activating, why it's a mental load issue hiding in plain sight, and what the research (and your comments) reveal about who's really responsible for making it disappear.Follow Leah: @prof.leahruppanner Hosted on Acast.

Heute geht's ans Eingemachte: Naschen, Quetschis und das schlechte Gewissen, das ihr alle kennt. Wisst ihr noch, wie ihr mal die mit der Gemüseschale werden wolltet? Tja. Bei uns gibt's Gummibärchen, Snackwaffeln und jeden Tag ein Eis – und dann gucken wir neidisch auf die Brotdosen mit Paprika und Apfel von den vernünftigen Hipster-Kindern. Wir reden drüber, warum die Kleinen abends auf einmal Hunger haben (Spoiler: ist meistens kein Hunger), ob man mit zwei Abend-Quetschis schon eine Essstörung triggert und warum klare Regeln am Ende für alle einfacher sind. Dann wird's wild: Alinas Baby robbt seit Neuestem wie eine Schildkröte aus dem Ei, hatte prompt einen Stein im Mund (Herzstillstand inklusive) und wir steigen offiziell in die wilde Phase ein. Dazu die Geschwisterliebe, mit der echt niemand gerechnet hat, ein Honig-Fun-Fact, der euch umhaut, und Alinas früheste Kindheitserinnerung, die… sagen wir mal: Addams-Family-Energie hat. Und weil das Leben gerade eh komplett auf Anschlag läuft, reden wir ehrlich über den Druck als Selbstständige mit zwei kleinen Kindern, Hausbau, Umzug und die Dauer-Angst, dass alles den Bach runtergeht. Alina, du machst gerade das heftigste Jahr deines Lebens durch – sei mal ein bisschen weich zu dir. Zum Schluss geht's noch auf Malle (erster Urlaub mit Baby!) und Fanny hat einen Airbnb-Tipp, der euch echt Geld sparen kann. Nächste Woche covern wir euren KI-Fomo: Die erste „KI für müde Mutties"-Folge kommt. Safe. MOMSPLAINING: Ihr habt eine Geschichte, einen Fall oder einfach was, das euch von der Seele muss?

What if the reason you're not sticking to the healthy habits you know would help isn't that you're lazy, undisciplined or lacking willpower? In this episode, I'm diving into the invisible mental load so many women carry: the remembering, planning, organising, anticipating and emotional holding that often goes completely unaccounted for. We'll look at why this cognitive load can affect your energy, hormones, gut health, nervous system, brain health and ability to create sustainable habits in midlife. Because sometimes the issue isn't that you need to try harder. It's that your brain is already carrying far too much.   Resources mentioned Want the mental load spreadsheet?

Erschöpfung entsteht nicht nur, wenn wir die uns zugeteilten Aufgaben erledigen, sondern auch, wenn wir uns mental laufend in der Verantwortung für das Ganze fühlen. Es sind vor allem die engagierten und verantwortungsbewussten Menschen, denen ihr Mental Load zu schaffen macht. In dieser Folge erfährst du, was Mental Load bedeutet, wie er entsteht und woran du ihn erkennst. Wenn du tiefer ins Thema einsteigen willst, empfehle ich dir mein neues Buch „Mental Load im Job“. Es ist als Hörbuch, E-Book und Taschenbuch erschienen und Teil meiner erfolgreichen Kompakt-Impuls Reihe.

Wenn ich meinen Kundinnen diese eine Frage stelle, herrscht oft erst einmal langes Schweigen. Viele merken inmitten ihres durchgetakteten Alltags gar nicht mehr, wie sehr sie sich selbst verloren haben. Nach außen hin läuft alles perfekt: Kinder, Job und Business sind top organisiert. Doch von innen fühlt es sich oft ganz anders an. Du bist zwar physisch anwesend, gedanklich aber schon wieder drei Aufgaben weiter. Am Ende bleibt oft nur eine tiefe, innere Leere und die Frage: Warum spüre ich mein eigenes Leben eigentlich kaum noch?In dieser Folge blicken wir tief unter die Oberfläche des reinen Funktionierens. Wir klären, warum dieser Zustand kein Zeichen von Schwäche, sondern ein unbewusstes Signal deines Körpers ist. Ich zeige dir den fundamentalen Unterschied zwischen dem Bewältigen von To-do-Listen und echter, lebendiger Lebensqualität. Lass uns gemeinsam hinschauen – ganz ohne Schuldgefühle oder Selbstbewertung –, wie du das Hamsterrad anhältst und die Verbindung zu dir selbst wieder spürbar machst.Das kannst du für dich aus der Folge mitnehmen:Was Funktionieren im Körper wirklich bedeutet und warum es sich so normal anfühlt: Wie dein Nervensystem chronische Anspannung aus einer langen Geschichte der Anpassung heraus als deinen vermeintlich sicheren Normalzustand abspeichert.Warum echte Erholung sich irgendwann fremd anfühlt, obwohl du sie dir so sehr wünschst: Warum ein System im Dauerfunktionsmodus wahre Ruhe im Unterbewusstsein blockiert und sich das Fallenlassen plötzlich ungewohnt oder sogar bedrohlich anfühlt.Was der Unterschied zwischen Leistung und Leben auf der Körperebene ist: Wie sich der Wechsel von der mechanischen Erledigung des Alltags hin zu echter Präsenz, befreitem Lachen und echtem Genuss körperlich ausdrückt.Warum der erste Schritt raus aus dem Funktionsmodus nicht Veränderung ist, sondern Wahrnehmung: Warum du dich nicht sofort umprogrammieren musst, sondern wie eine reine, wertfreie und liebevolle Bestandsaufnahme deines aktuellen Körperzustands bereits die gesamte Klarheit bringt.Erkenne, wo du gerade stehst, putz die trüben Fenster deines Alltags und erlaube dir, endlich wieder die Sonne in deinem eigenen Leben zu spüren.

For women navigating midlife - and anyone dealing with burnout, overwhelm, or that nagging sense that your brain just isn't firing the way it used to — this episode is for you. Host Marianne Wisenthal sits down with Erin Wong, certified executive function coach and founder of Thriving Minds at Work, to unpack why focus, productivity, and energy can suddenly feel out of reach. Erin breaks down what the invisible mental load is really costing us, why traditional productivity advice so often stops working, and shares her own burnout story along with practical strategies for reducing cognitive overload. If you've ever wondered why everything feels so much harder than it used to, this conversation will help you understand why and what you can do about it.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Many mothers go to the doctor because they feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and they aren't sleeping - and leave with a depression diagnosis and a prescription. The message is: your brain isn't working right, and medication will help you cope. But what if the problem isn't your brain at all? In this episode, I talk with journalist Bob Whitaker, who has spent decades investigating psychiatric treatment in the U.S. We look at how women's distress has been medicalized instead of taken seriously as a response to impossible circumstances. We look at how antidepressants work, which is quite different from what the drug companies have been telling us for years.  He also shares the results of a New Zealand study on postpartum depression that should have changed how we support new mothers - but didn't. Questions this episode will answer Is it burnout or depression? Burnout and depression share a lot of the same symptoms - exhaustion, low mood, difficulty functioning - but they have different roots. Burnout is a response to sustained, unmanageable circumstances. Depression, as it's currently diagnosed and treated, is framed as a brain malfunction. This episode looks at why this difference matters, and why so many mothers get a depression diagnosis when they're experiencing burnout. Why are mothers more likely to be diagnosed with depression? Mothers in the US are frequently carrying an unequal share of household work, childcare, and mental load - often while also working full time - with little support. When that situation becomes unsustainable, the distress it causes is then treated as an individual brain problem rather than a response to a broken system. What prevents postpartum depression? A study out of New Zealand found that consistent, practical support - help with the actual work of running a household - significantly reduced postpartum depression. But even though the findings were significant, more support has not become the standard of care. Should I take antidepressants? Antidepressants may reduce symptoms for some people, but research shows they are far less effective than we've been told - and for mothers whose distress is rooted in unsustainable circumstances, medication addresses the symptom rather than the source. If antidepressants are helping you, that's OK (and do keep taking them!). But antidepressants should be used to help create space for other interventions to work, rather than used long-term. How does society affect women's mental health? When we treat women's distress as a potentially life-long medical problem rather than a signal about unsustainable circumstances, we direct attention away from the structural changes that would actually help. This episode traces how that pattern developed - and what a different approach might look like. What you'll learn in this episode Why the mental load of motherhood is a structural problem, not a brain problem that medication should fixHow psychiatry functions as social control when it diagnoses individuals instead of the broken systems they're living inWhat the New Zealand postpartum depression study found - and why its results were largely ignoredHow drug advertising has shaped what we believe about women's distress - from Valium in the 1960s to antidepressants todayHow to shift from asking "what's wrong with my brain" to "what would actually need to change in my situation" If you want to learn more about Bob's work and the research on depression and antidepressants, go to https://madinamerica.com/. Want to go deeper? The full one-hour conversation with Bob is available to Parenting Membership members. In it, Bob traces exactly how depression came to be understood as a chemical imbalance - not because research proved it, but because psychiatry in the U.S. wanted to rebrand itself as a legitimate medical discipline in the 1980s.  He walks us through how pharmaceutical companies funneled money to academic psychiatrists to become "thought leaders," how Prozac was marketed as making people "feel better than well," and how the industry captured the entire profession so thoroughly that by 1998, the New England Journal of Medicine couldn't find a single academic expert on depression in the US who wasn't taking money from pharmaceutical companies. We went deep on the STAR*D trial - the largest antidepressant study ever conducted. The public was told 70% of patients got better. The actual stay-well rate at one year, once a researcher used a Freedom of Information request to get the raw data: 3%. Bob walks through exactly how that number was inflated - the protocol violations, the patients who were already in remission when they enrolled, the switched measurement scales - and why he calls it a straight-out public betrayal. The whole episode is available to you in your private podcast feed immediately after joining the Parenting Membership.  Inside the membership, you'll find research-based modules on the specific challenges that make family life hard - from navigating parenting as a team to raising siblings who get along.

It focuses on the problems in the head of the individual, not in the social way we arrange our society. 06:25 From hysteria and electroshock therapy (mostly given to women) in the 1800s, to marketing benzodiazepines to wives in the 1960s, the pattern of pathologizing women's distress has been consistent. 08:32 When benzodiazepines were recognized as addictive in the late 1970s, psychiatry reframed anxiety as a type of depression and switched women to antidepressants, another numbing drug that keeps women quiet and functioning in an impossible situation. 13:31 In the New Zealand study, it says that when women got daily help with housework for six months, postpartum depression was prevented. Yet this support became standard care nowhere, because the system still believes the problem is in people's brains, not in their circumstances. 14:17 Wrapping up today's topic

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today we're diving into what's really happening in those moments where you snap, shut down, or react in a way you never thought you would. Not because you don't care. Not because you don't know what to do. But because your capacity is maxed out. I'm joined by Dr. Cassidy Freitas, licensed marriage and family therapist and author of Mom Needs a Moment, and we're unpacking the shame spiral that so many parents fall into, and why understanding your own limits is actually a critical part of showing up for your kids. We talk about what it looks like to take space without guilt, how shame keeps us stuck while guilt can actually guide us, and why repair matters more than getting it right in the moment. We also get into how our own childhood experiences show up in our parenting, especially in the moments that feel the most charged. This isn't about becoming a perfect parent. It's about understanding what's happening inside you so you can respond with more clarity, more intention, and a whole lot more compassion. Alright folks, let's dive in.

Fanny und Alina sind endlich wieder zu zweit. Kein Gast, kein Crashkurs, einfach nur die zwei. Und es gibt viel aufzuräumen. Erstmal: Was ist übrig geblieben von Kathy Webers Tipps? Alina hat es versucht. Wirklich. Ins Bett gehen, Zähneputzen, Kompromisse eingehen — und trotzdem ist die Kacke am Dampfen. Fanny dagegen konnte Haare im Gesicht nicht aushalten und war störrischer als ihre Tochter. Und beide sind so: okay, vielleicht braucht es doch mehr als eine Podcastfolge, um das umzuprogrammieren, was seit 30 Jahren drin sitzt. Dann wird's tiefer. Alina war zum ersten Mal bei ihrer neuen Psychotherapeutin — und es war richtig gut. Bis auf eine Sache, die alles kurz ins Wanken gebracht hat. Fanny dagegen steckt noch fest im Vorraum der Therapie: will, braucht's, will nicht, braucht's doch nicht, ist es schlimm genug, ist es zu wenig schlimm? Ihr kennt das Gefühl, müde Muddis. Schickt eure MOMSPLAINING-Geschichten an fanny@mamaleisa.de, damit Fanny und Alina sie hier besprechen und judgen. Du bist schwanger und fühlst dich gerade überfordert, unsicher oder allein?

What happens when cancer caregiving turns you into the translator for everyone else? In this episode, Charlotte continues the Mental Load of Cancer Caregiving series by naming the hidden labor of receiving medical information and then constantly reshaping it for the person you love, for family members, for friends, and for the systems around you. She explores why that ongoing translation can leave caregivers exhausted, lonely, and strangely unseen, and how repeatedly giving everyone else a manageable version of the truth can delay your own emotional response.

Sometimes the hardest clutter to let go of is not the thing itself.It is the version of ourselves we hoped it would help us become.The yoga mat for the daily practice we imagined. The craft supplies for the creative afternoons we thought we would have. The kitchen gadget, the unread books, the course, the clothes, the resources, the hobby equipment, all waiting for a future life that may not actually fit who we are today.And that can feel surprisingly emotional.Because aspirational clutter is often tied to hope, good intentions, identity, and the pressure to become a better, calmer, more organized version of ourselves.In this episode, you'll learn:What aspirational clutter is and why it can feel so difficult to declutterWhy we often hold onto items for an imagined future version of ourselvesHow things like craft supplies, fitness equipment, books, kitchen gadgets, courses, and clothes can become identity clutterWhy keeping something does not bring back the money you spent on itHow aspirational clutter can contribute to clutter stress, emotional overwhelm, mental overload, and the feeling that you are constantly falling short The difference between genuinely wanting to do something and liking the idea of being someone who does itTwo simple decluttering questions that can provide instant clarity when you are struggling with decluttering guilt Why motherhood, neurodivergence, self-improvement goals, and changing interests can all create their own unique forms of family clutter and personal clutter How letting go of unused items can allow someone else to benefit from themIf you have shelves, drawers, boxes, or cupboards filled with things for a future version of yourself, this episode is an invitation to look at them with honesty and compassion.Because life changes. Priorities shift. And sometimes the things we once hoped for no longer fit the season of life we are in now.Here's to making space for who you are today,CarolineThanks for listening!

Summer is almost here, and for many of us, the garage is overflowing, the closets are packed, the kids' artwork is piling up and the mental load of managing it all feels heavier than ever.In this episode, Andryanna explores the concept of Swedish Death Cleaning and why this decluttering philosophy is about so much more than getting rid of stuff before you die. It's about reducing stress, decision fatigue, guilt and the invisible burden of managing things that no longer serve your life.From sentimental clutter and kids' keepsakes to Facebook Marketplace piles and "just in case" items, this conversation will help you rethink what you're holding onto and why.In this episode:• What Swedish Death Cleaning actually is• The connection between clutter, stress, and mental load• Why we hold onto things long after we've stopped using them• How guilt, identity and indecision keep us stuck• The difference between sentimental clutter and meaningful memories• Simple ways to start decluttering without getting overwhelmed• Yard sale and Facebook Marketplace tips• What to let go of before summer arrivesCONNECT WITH ANDRYANNA:Get your copy of The Juggle is Real: Authentic Self-Care Planner Vol. 2 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HERE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ On ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠hello@andryanna.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠And please visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Andryanna.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for blogs, giveaways, workshops, tools, resources and more.Keywords: Swedish Death Cleaning, mental load, decluttering, clutter and stress, decision fatigue, organizing, home organization, sentimental clutter, Facebook Marketplace, yard sale tips, simplifying life, emotional clutter, motherhood and mental load, organizing tips, Margareta Magnusson, The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning, summer organizing, The Juggle is Real

A lot of us are tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. We're doing the things — the work, the list, the showing up — and still, something is pulling at us. A low hum of unfinished. For years, Robin Quinn Keehn thought that hum was a personal failing: not disciplined enough, not organized enough. It wasn't any of that. It was Open Loops. This is the backbone episode of the show — the one to send anyone who's new. Robin defines an Open Loop plainly (a commitment, promise, or agreement that's unfinished, incomplete, or outdated, quietly draining your time, energy, and peace), then walks through the three kinds almost all of us carry: Relational Loops with other people, Self-Loops — the promises we break to ourselves — and Unspoken Brokens, the things that needed to be said and never were. You'll hear why loops stay open (it's avoidance, not discipline), what they actually cost — especially what broken self-promises do to your confidence — and the three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, or recommit to it, on purpose. This is also where Robin introduces the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge, starting June 29. In this episode: What an Open Loop actually is — and why it stays quiet The three kinds: Relational Loops, Self-Loops, and Unspoken Brokens Why broken promises to yourself quietly erode your confidence Why open loops are an avoidance problem, not a discipline problem The real cost: time, energy, peace — and belief in yourself The three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, recommit to it An invitation to the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge (starts June 29) If this episode resonated with you, you might enjoy our free People Skillz community — a structured space to practice steadier, more intentional communication. We also created a short Communication Patterns Quiz to help you identify how you respond under pressure. You'll find both here.

In this episode, Meg and Heather discuss burnout for women, especially the mental load in this space of life. Meg reference a book on burnout written by twins as well as a TED talk they did on recognizing burnout and what to do about it. They also discuss some natural tools you could use - Adaptiv and Motivate. Meg also stresses the value of community - she hosts an online community called "Balance in the Messy Middle" which is perfect for walking through this stage of life with others and some wonderful coaching as well. doTERRA Adaptiv supplements for when you are overwhelmed.

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Esther Bauer über ein Thema, das mich in den letzten Jahren immer mehr beschäftigt: Versorgung. Denn wie gut sind wir eigentlich wirklich versorgt — mitten in einem stressigen Alltag, zwischen Mutterschaft, Arbeit, Mental Load und ständigem Funktionieren? Wir sprechen über Omega 3, Supplementierung, moderne Ernährung, Zellgesundheit und darüber, warum viele Menschen trotz „gesunder Ernährung“ oft nicht die Nährstoffe bekommen, die ihr Körper eigentlich braucht. Aber diese Folge geht noch über Ernährung hinaus. Es geht auch um Verbindung. Zu unserem Körper. Zu unserem Energielevel. Und darum, wieder bewusster wahrzunehmen, was uns wirklich stärkt. Eine ruhige, ehrliche und gleichzeitig sehr inspirierende Folge. ✨

Why are women so exhausted? Professor Leah Ruppanner explains the invisible mental load women carry every day - from planning and organising to worrying and responsibility-holding. We explore the eight types of mental load, why women become the default managers of family life, the impact of social judgment and gender expectations, and practical ways to reclaim energy for what matters most. A validating, research-backed conversation for every working mum who feels mentally and emotionally overloaded.

Kathy Weber ist im Haus – und poliert uns direkt den Hintern. Windel wechseln? Nein. Zähne putzen? Auch nein. Aus dem Zimmer kommen? Bloß nicht. Fanny und Alina haben Kathy Weber zu Gast, Elternberaterin, Bestseller-Autorin und die Frau, die ihr schon seit Ewigkeiten in die Kommentare getippt habt. Mit Nachdruck. Ihr hattet recht, ist ja gut. Kathy bricht runter, was hinter dem ewigen Nein steckt, warum die erste Autonomiephase nicht Trotzphase heißen sollte, was ein Siebenjähriger, der sich die Zähne nicht selbst putzen will, eigentlich gerade wirklich braucht und warum der lustige Puppibär beim Windelwechseln womöglich kompletter Machtmissbrauch ist. Uff. Alina fühlt sich ertappt. Fanny läuft durch den Flur und sagt Dinge. Und Kathy sagt in aller Ruhe: Ja, ich weiß. Das kenne ich auch. Ihr dürft trotzdem. Dazu: Wackelzahnpubertät erklärt, Manipulation in all ihren Formen, warum Belohnung kurzfristig funktioniert und langfristig wehtut, und was passiert, wenn Kinder endlich Erfahrungen sammeln dürfen. Mit langen Fingernägeln zum Beispiel. Für alle müden Muddis, die gerade im Badezimmer stehen und innerlich schreien: Diese Folge ist für euch. Kathys Lesung zum neuen Buch ist am 20.06. im Säälchen am Holzmarkt Kathys Bücher: „Mein Kind macht, was es will" (erste & zweite Autonomiephase) und „Ich mach, was ich will" (Teenagerjahre – und ja, Kathy legt sich nackig aufs Auto, damit das ein Spiegel-Bestseller wird).

Cassiano Surek, CTO at Beyond, joins host KJ to explore how artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping the workforce, enterprise structure, and even how we shop. Cassiano argues that the era of hyper-specialized talent is giving way to competent generalists who can orchestrate AI tools across the full stack, and that the companies embracing this shift are already pulling ahead. The conversation spans team architecture, the flattening of corporate hierarchies, the dawn of agentic commerce, and a surprising personal project built to lighten the mental load of moms everywhere. Four Key Takeaways: 3:39 — Curiosity is the core driver of innovation. It won't always pay off, but the compounding of near-wins over time is what ultimately leads to breakthroughs. 12:36 — Corporate hierarchies are contracting dramatically. AI enables fewer, more versatile people to do more, making deep layers of management increasingly obsolete. 17:26 — The workforce is shifting from deep specialists to competent generalists, people who can work across the full solution stack using AI tooling, unlocking a new era of entrepreneurial creativity. 17:26 — Agentic commerce is already here. AI agents will soon shop on your behalf, fundamentally disrupting how merchants, brands, and consumers interact, possibly by this Christmas. Quote of the Show (12:37):"A success is made of many almost quasi successes... It's an endless journey of exploration." — Cassiano Surek Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Does your brain feel crowded? That's mental load—the constant planning, remembering, worrying, and anticipating that never really switches off. Carrying everything in your head wears you down. And if you're a mom or the one everyone relies on, it's the invisible list that never ends—meals, schedules, everyone else's needs, and everything running in the background.Ally is a Meditation and Mindfulness teacher from the School of Positive Transformation, an ICF-certified executive coach, and a professional organizer.

Leah Ruppanner is a Professor of Sociology at the University of Melbourne and Founder of LightenLab.She is the author of the new book: Drained: Reduce Your Mental Load to Do Less and Be More and Motherlands: How States Push Mothers Out of Employment. She has a PhD in Sociology and has spent decades researching and publishing over 70 peer-reviewed articles on gender, work and family. Today we discuss: her new book  Drained: Reduce Your Mental Load to Do Less and Be More. The term mental load has become more familiar in recent years, but the popular understanding of the concept often reduces it down to managing a list of household chores and logistics. In the book, Leah reveals that for women, mental load actually goes much deeper: It's a complex form of emotional thinking that is invisible, boundaryless, and enduring. In Drained, she outlines the eight distinct types of mental load and highlights what makes them so uniquely heavy for women.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why does choosing dinner, returning a call, or deciding what to do next sometimes feel impossible during cancer caregiving? In this episode, Charlotte continues the Mental Load of Cancer Caregiving series by naming the decision drain: the cognitive and emotional exhaustion that comes from making high-stakes choices all day long with incomplete information and no clear right answer. She explores why caregivers can end up depleted, stuck, and unable to land even small decisions by afternoon, and offers a practical framework for creating decision boundaries so your brain does not have to carry every choice at full intensity all at once.

Feeding our families is a never-ending task, one that can weigh heavily on both our minds and wallets. I used to feel overwhelmed by the constant need to plan, shop, and cook meals, but I've discovered a few strategies that have transformed our dinner routine into something manageable and even enjoyable. By keeping an essentials list, planning and shopping biweekly, and focusing on simple repeat meals, I'm not only saving money but also finding more peace around mealtime. These approaches have allowed me to reduce stress and spend more quality time with my family, enjoying meals rather than dreading them.

What if the reason self-care feels impossible isn't laziness, lack of time, or poor planning — but the invisible, never-ending mental load that mums carry every single day? In this episode of Mucked Up My Self Care, Linda and Jill get real about the weight of the mental load: the planning, scheduling, remembering, and organising that keeps the family ship afloat — and quietly drowns our capacity for self-care. From pregnancy brain to tea towels that seem to multiply on the bench, this conversation is warm, honest, and deeply relatable for any mum who has ever felt like her brain just won't switch off.In this episode, you'll learn:Why the mental load is a self-care crisis — and the research that backs it upHow mums carry the majority of household mental load tasks and what that actually costs usWhy awareness of the mental load isn't always enough to change it — and what the real gap isWhat it looks like to gently let go of mental load tasks, even just for a seasonHow to start sharing the load with a partner, your kids, or your wider support networkWhy passing off even one small task out loud can be a powerful first stepThe role society and systems play in keeping mums overwhelmed — and why it's not your faultHow to identify the one piece of your mental load you've been silently carrying aloneThe mental load doesn't take a day off — but you deserve a break from carrying it all alone. Whether you're deep in pregnancy, parenting solo, or navigating a household where the invisible work still somehow lands on your shoulders, this episode is your reminder: you are not failing. You are carrying too much. Jill and Linda invite you to start small — name the one thing you've been silently managing, and consider who else could hold a piece of it. That conversation? That's self-care too.Until next week, we hope you can unstuck your muck!

ADHS, Autismus, Medikamente, Schule, Wutanfälle, Schamgefühle und dieses Gefühl, mit dem eigenen Kind irgendwie ständig „zu viel“ zu sein. Fanny und Alina haben Isa zu Gast, Autorin von „Anders glücklich“, und die Folge fühlt sich an wie eine riesige Erkenntnis-Kettenreaktion. Warum fallen Aufgaben schwer, obwohl das Kind eigentlich alles kann? Warum eskalieren manche Situationen sofort komplett? Und warum verstehen sich neurodivergente Menschen oft gegenseitig einfach besser? Alina spricht sehr offen über ihre eigene ADHS-Diagnose als Kind, Medikamente und das Gefühl, jahrelang falsch eingeschätzt worden zu sein. Isa erklärt, wie ADHS und Autismus im Alltag aussehen können, warum viele Kinder ständig anecken und weshalb Verständnis manchmal mehr verändert als jede perfekte Erziehungsmethode. Zwischendurch geht's um Fahrradstühle unterm Esstisch, Trampoline neben den Hausaufgaben und die Frage, ob eigentlich die Kinder das Problem sind oder manchmal einfach das ganze System.

I'm closing out season 5 by naming a common marriage stressor: resentment that grows when one person carries the invisible load. I'm sharing my “offices” system that saved our teamwork in business and later brought clarity, relief, and more connection at home. • resentment driven by carrying responsibility alone rather than the amount of work • how unclear ownership creates chaos, dropped balls, and constant stress • the “offices” approach to assign big responsibilities rather than scattered tasks • a real-life example using kids' sports to define full ownership and reduce tension • Eve Rodsky's Fair Play framework and the three parts of any task • why delegating execution is not the same as shared ownership of the mental load • questions that invite teamwork instead of scorekeeping and defensiveness • a summer practice list: compassionate curiosity, closing tabs, friendship, repair I want you to sit down together and make a list of all the recurring responsibilities in your household. Then get to work on assigning ownership of those responsibilities.If you have any questions about coaching and how it can bless your marriage, please email me:  moni@monicatanner.com or book a call here:  https://monicatanner.com/call.See you in August!Send us Fan Mail

Why does cancer caregiving make it so hard to remember simple things, stay focused, or feel fully present in everyday life? In this episode, Charlotte continues the Mental Load of Cancer Caregiving series by naming what cognitive overload feels like in real time: forgetting why you walked into a room, rereading the same paragraph, losing track of conversations, and feeling like your brain is not cooperating in ordinary moments. She explains why this is not a personal failure but the cost of running a caregiving system in the background of daily life, and offers a small practice to help interrupt the spiral when the fog hits.

Make homes feel calmer and easier to live in.But I quickly began to notice that the process of decluttering and tidying up was bringing up questions, emotions, and realizations that went far beyond the physical stuff.Because clutter is rarely only about what we can see.It can be the unfinished decisions, the mental load, the pressure to keep everything together, and the feeling that your home is constantly asking something from you.So today, I'm taking you back to the beginning of my journey as a home organizer and sharing how my understanding of home organizing has changed over time.In this episode, you'll learn:Why letting go of clutter brings up more than most people expectHow the KonMari Method changed the way I looked at my own homeWhat physical clutter can reveal about your mental load, emotions, and everyday stressWhat emotional clutter really is and why it's often harder to address than the physical messWhy traditional home organization advice can leave people feeling like they are failingWhat it really means to create systems that support you on hard days, not only your best daysWhy decluttering is about creating a calmer, more manageable clutter free home that works for real lifeHow support, community, and small sustainable progress can make the process feel much less overwhelmingIf you've been searching for clutter relief, sustainable progress, and a calm home, this episode is your invitation to finally build a space that supports you.Here's to homes that hold up on the hard days,Caroline 

This week on The Running Wine Mom, Samantha sits down with New York Times bestselling author Annabel Monaghan for an honest conversation about motherhood, caregiving, burnout, love, and the invisible mental load women carry every single day. Annabel shares the inspiration behind her newest novel, Dolly All the Time — a story about a single mom juggling work, family, financial stress, and caregiving while slowly learning how to stop carrying everything alone. Samantha and Annabel dive into the “curse of capability,” why moms struggle to ask for help, and how women often become the emotional managers of their entire families. They also talk about: Why romance shouldn't magically fix a woman's life  Fake dating, family pressure, and financial stress in fiction  The emotional reality of caregiving  Raising capable kids instead of over-functioning for them  The mental load moms carry every day  Why women relate so deeply to Dolly's story  The famous “pants” mantra from the book  Writing chemistry and emotional intimacy  Rhode Island as the perfect summer-book setting If you've ever felt like the default parent, the family planner, the emergency contact, or the one holding everything together — this episode will hit home.Follow Annabel Website: annabelmonaghan.com Instagram: @annabelmonaghanFollow Samantha Instagram: @therunningwinemom_Books MentionedDolly All the TimeNora Goes Off ScriptSummer Romance

Send Us A Question You Want ON AIR!In this episode of She Cultivates, I'm having an honest conversation about something many women experience but don't always know how to explain  feeling mentally and emotionally overwhelmed even when life looks good on the outside.Sometimes you can be in a season of answered prayers, growth, new opportunities, healthy relationships, or exciting change… and still feel anxious, disconnected, exhausted, or emotionally heavy.This episode is about the mental load we quietly carry in seasons of becoming — the pressure to keep up, hold everything together, process change, and still remain grateful through it all.In this episode, I share:Why good seasons can still feel emotionally heavyThe mental load many women silently carryFeeling overwhelmed during seasons of growth and transitionThe pressure to always appear grateful or “okay”Navigating emotional exhaustion while life is moving forwardLearning to process your season instead of perform through itWhat has helped me slow down, stay grounded, and care for my mental healthThis episode is a reminder that you are allowed to feel both grateful and overwhelmed at the same time. Growth, transition, and becoming all carry emotional weight — and you don't have to pretend you're unaffected by it.You're not failing because you feel tired.You're human, and you're carrying a lot.Take this episode as your reminder to slow down, check in with yourself, and give yourself permission to process the season you're in. PODCAST LIVE EARLY BIRD TICKET (USE CODE CULTIVATE15)https://www.shecultivatesorl.com/event-details/she-cultivates-podcast-liveSave 15% off your Skin Deep Connect Cards using link below https://shop.theskindeep.com/SHECULTIVATESORLWould love to hear from you!

Thursday May 14th, 2026: There's a part of the mental load that no one really talks about… your own thoughts. The constant questioning. The nonstop noise. The invisible checklist running through your brain 24/7.In today's solo episode, I talk about a bit of an epiphany I had recently: why am I working so much? Somewhere along the way, I slipped into full workaholic mode and started prioritizing productivity over the things I'm constantly stressed about “neglecting”, home cooked meals, organizing the house, quality time with family, maintaining friendships, slowing down, and actually enjoying my life.So this summer? I'm embracing a bare minimum summer. Doing what truly needs to get done and letting the rest go. Because I only get one summer where Milo is 7 years old, and honestly? This might be my favourite age yet. The BEST. I don't want to miss it because I was too busy answering emails or chasing productivity for no reason.I also get into the exhausting mental gymnastics of motherhood and womanhood… the constant second guessing, guilt, overthinking, and pressure to optimize everything. Why does my brain work like this? Why does it feel like moms carry around so much unnecessary noise in our heads? And why do I know for a fact my husband is not spiraling over whether we've done enough reading practice this week?If your brain also feels like 47 tabs are open at all times, this episode is for you.

You are not overwhelmed because you're bad at balance. You're overwhelmed because you're carrying an entire operating system in your head for running a home and caring for kids, and no one ever taught you how to turn it off. You've split the tasks, had the talks, been very clear about “I just need more help.” And still, you're the one remembering, anticipating and managing everything.This isn't about who's doing more, it's about who's mentally running the entire show. And if that's you?? Of course you're exhausted. In this episode, we're blowing up the biggest lie we've all been fed: That the mental load is a communication problem. It's not. It's an infrastructure problem. And once you see it, you cannot unsee it, which is exactly why this conversation is so crucial.Deena sits down with Kelly Hubbell, founder of Sage Haus, mom of three, and an accidental genius who built a solution most of us didn't even know was possible, to break down:• Why even “equal” partnerships still leave moms carrying ~70% of the mental load• The 5 invisible layers running in your brain 24/7 (this alone will blow your mind, and unlock real change)• Why “just tell me what to do” is actually adding to your exhaustion• The real reason you feel burnt out - even if you have childcare• The exact shift that takes you from constant resentment and overwhelm to *actual* reliefAnd then, we push into the uncomfortable truth: What if the answer isn't doing more… or communicating better?? What if the answer is… you stop doing it all?? Not in a reckless way, but in a new, radically supported way. We're talking about a level of support that doesn't just check tasks off a list, it removes the invisible weight from your brain. The kind that gives you hours back every single week, and lets you actually be with your kids instead of managing life around them - one that shifts your relationship, your energy, your entire home.And yes, we explicitly tackle every elephant in the room: The cost, the guilt, the “this feels indulgent - is this too much?” spiral. (If that thought just hit you, you need to listen to this episode.) Because by the end, you're going to realize something: You were never supposed to carry all of this alone. Press play if you're ready to stop managing everything yourself, and finally experience what it feels like to be fully supported at home.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
