Podcasts about mental load

Your weekend sanity check has arrived. A new episode of Parenting Out Loud is here with all the conversations you need - because if parents are thinking about it, we're talking about it. Are you feeling ‘The Squeeze’? The daily chaos of modern parenting is real. We unpack why you’re feeling maxed out and overwhelmed and talk about whether there’s actually anything you can do about it. Plus, are you raising readers or just scrollers? And in today’s digital world, is it even important? We discuss whether it’s possible to get over your scrolling addiction and get you (and your kids) back into books. And, the dads are in their feelings this week, and we’re here for it. George Clooney reflects on the sacrifices he’s made for success, while Prince William reveals how even Royal dads can feel overwhelmed when it comes to raising tiny humans. Our recommendations:

Have you ever felt like you're carrying the invisible weight of motherhood, trying to do it all, yet somehow still feeling like it's never enough? In this episode, Whitney chats with artist and comic creator Mary Catherine Starr, whose funny and painfully relatable illustrations capture exactly what so many moms experience but hardly ever say out loud.   Mary Catherine shares how she started drawing comics as a way to cope with the chaos and exhaustion of early motherhood, and how it grew into a community of women who felt like they could relate to her work. She and Whitney talk about the mental load moms carry, the unrealistic expectation that moms should do it all and the truth about mom guilt.   This conversation is a reminder that you're not alone in feeling overwhelmed or unseen. Tune in to feel seen, inspired, and ready to create more space for joy in your daily life.   Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: How Mary Catherine got into creating comics for moms Why domestic work still falls mostly on women's shoulders The “we can do it all” method Why mom guilt impacts moms but not dads in the same way What Mary Catherine wishes she could've unlearned sooner in her motherhood journey   Reflection question to ponder: What part of this do I enjoy?

Send us a textYou built your business for freedom. But if you're the one everyone turns to when the school calls, the groceries are forgotten, or the cat's sick, that “freedom” can disappear fast. Being the flexible one feels like strength. But over time, it becomes an expectation — and the cost is your focus, your energy, and your growth.In this episode, I share the moment that made me realize bending for everyone else isn't a badge of honour. It's leadership fatigue in disguise. And more importantly — what to do about it.Episode Highlights:

The mental load isn't just yours to carry - it's a leadership issue. Learn how cultures that care can ease the juggle at work and at home. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of a global speaker series we delivered to our client, UKG, to explore why the mental load isn't just a personal struggle - it's a leadership issue. Together we unpack how invisible responsibilities at home and at work impact wellbeing, retention, and culture, and why building ‘cultures that care' matters for every organisation. Joining me to share the story are two inspiring UKG leaders who brought this initiative to life - Mille Holst-Barry and Jeremy Casupanan Together we discuss: - Why UKG decided to invest in this global iniative around the mental load - How conversations about the mental load can transform both workplaces and homes. - The personal and cultural nuances of mental load across families, genders, and geographies. - Why recognising the invisible tasks at work is vital for equity and retention. - The practical impact of addressing the mental load in the workplace This is an honest, inspiring, and hopeful conversation about how organisations can support their people to thrive and why every workplace should be talking about the mental load. Tune in and discover how small shifts in awareness can make a big difference in creating workplaces (and homes) where everyone can flourish.

Frieda Lewin ist zum zweiten Mal bei Evelyn zu Gast – diesmal mit der großen Frage: Wie kann Mom Life Balance gelingen? Oder ist das längst eine Utopie, und das eigentliche Ziel sollte sein, nicht jeden einzelnen Tag emotional überreizt zu sein – und zwischen Mental Load, Paarbeziehung und Kinderlogistik halbwegs bei Verstand zu bleiben? Frieda erzählt, wie sie gelernt hat, sich in stressigen Momenten innerlich zurückzuziehen – kein Hokuspokus, sondern mental ins alte Kinderzimmer mit Dackel, Pfannkuchen und Atemübungen. Dazu ein klug (um-)programmierter mentaler Filter und die Erkenntnis, dass auch Eltern-Bedürfnisse zählen – nicht nur die der Kinder. Außerdem geht's um Morgenroutinen, Zuckerregeln (und ihre Ausnahmen), schlechte Laune und große Gefühle. Trotz aller Ambivalenzen und Widersprüche ist eines klar: Mama bleibt die Lotsin! Viel Spaß mit dieser lustig-ehrlichen Folge!

You're carrying it all - the school forms, the meals, the birthdays, the appointments - all living inside your head while everyone else just… shows up? That's the invisible mental load. And right now, despite having a 50/50 partnership style home, the mental load has fallen back on me (Kristin), again. But here's the thing: this isn't a story about blame. This is a story about change. About refusing to drown, and about building a system that actually works for everyone.In this solo episode, I share the science behind why the mental load tends to always fall on moms, how it crushes so many marriages, and the moment I realized I couldn't keep going this way. Plus, 4 steps I'm taking right now to reclaim balance and rebuild true partnership in my home. You'll walk away with the exact script, the reset ritual, and a step-by-step plan you can use tonight to get the load off of you, and start sharing tasks.

Have you ever noticed that some of the parents in Disney movies…aren't exactly the best role models?   They love their kids deeply, but their fears, expectations, and blind spots often get in the way of connection. As I rewatched a few of these classics recently, I couldn't help but think, "These parents could really use the Self-Assured Motherhood program!" In this episode, I'm sharing three SAM principles through the lens of Disney families—because studying cartoon characters makes everything more fun (and surprisingly relatable!):

Have you ever been told that your perfectionism is a problem? Maybe you've felt like it's the reason you're stressed, restless, or never satisfied with yourself. But what if perfectionism isn't actually the enemy? What if it's a form of power that, when channeled with compassion, can actually bring you more joy and meaning? In this episode, I'm joined by Katherine Morgan Schafler, a psychotherapist and the author of The Perfectionist's Guide to Losing Control. Katherine offers a refreshing perspective: perfectionism doesn't need to be “fixed” or hidden—it can be embraced and redirected in healthier, more adaptive ways. In this conversation, you'll learn:

Hey! Welcome back on this beautiful September day!  If you are new here,  I'm Monica and I love to simplify and streamline everything and I enjoy sharing all I learn with you, so grab a cup of coffee and enjoy! After a summer of probably saying yes to too many things and feeling exhausted, I realized I needed to be reminded of my own advice to keep things simple with less stress.  If you know me at all, which you probably know me pretty well if you have listened to any amount of podcasts here, but I'm sure you know I like to do all the things, I love to learn and sometimes that comes with getting too much on my plate.   If you want to reduce some of your mental load & enjoy a slow and intentional life, the first step is to create it by centering your life around what is important to you.  For me, it is my faith, family, and time for being present.  To me, time is our precious commodity and I don't want to get to the end of life and wish I would have done things differently.  Depending on what season you are in, living intentionally may look different than slow living, but you have to know what you really want life to look like and make a plan so you can stop spiraling out of control and feel like you are going backwards.   Next, you need to start saying no to some of what you are doing.  If you are saying yes to please others or just because you think you are supposed to do something, you will burn out fast.  I remember when my kids were in elementary school, I thought that I should volunteer just because I stayed at home (because most people done understand what WFH moms do!), but I whenever it came to going, I just dreaded it because I had so many other things I needed to do.  I have always had side businesses as I'm not someone that ever sits around, so I have to plan my time carefully.   I have learned to say, thanks for thinking of me, but right now I am unable to …..whatever it is.  You don't have to say any more or try to make up excuses.  Just imaging what all the things you will be able to say yes to because of the no's you had to tell people!   And the last way you can lessen your mental load is to declutter.  There is a direct correlation with mental stress and clutter, so make sure you are clearing spaces in your home.  Since we have moved into our home 2 years ago, we have done so mych outside, but I still have totes with my hobbies and it bothers me everytime i see those totes because it is something I just haven't had a chance to get to yet.  As my business has grown, it is something that got put on the back burner!  I know when I have clutter on the counter or around our home, it makes such a difference in how stressed I am.  If you do 1 thing today, start with clearing off your cupboard and getting the dishes done every night.  After a week or 2 add in another thing and try to clear your space you are in most of the time first.  You will wake up feeling much better when you go to make your coffee and don't have the stress of the mess hanging over your head.     I want you to start implementing this right away and let me know how it goes for you!     Remember Keep it simple and have a great week!    Love ya friend!

Balance. The word moms hear over and over again… but here's the truth: Balance is a myth. It suggests you can (and should) give equal time, energy, and attention to everything — work, home, self-care, kids — all at once. But motherhood doesn't (and shouldn't) work that way. Life moves in seasons and rhythms, not perfect symmetry. It's time to stop striving for balance and start creating systems that actually work in your real life. In this episode, I'm sharing why balance is keeping you stuck and what to aim for instead.

I land the ‘mental load' conversation in this episode. This is part 2 of a two part exploration.In this episode I break down why the idea of ‘mental load' takes away from our biological inclinations as men and women. The truth is there is no such thing as invisible labor & visible labor. There is men's labor and women's labor and we've lost sight of that as a society due to industrialization and modernization.Listen in to learn about how the sacred separation between men and women got lost, what would happen if boys were on an equal playing field with girls, why there is no such thing as 50/50 in relationships, how the idea of ‘mental load' is actually extremely sexist, and more.I reference Mary Harrington, author of Feminism Against Progress & her recent writing via her substack, the reactionary feminist.

Clutter isn't just about stuff—it's about the guilt, shame, and stress weighing you down every time you walk into a room.I'm joined by declutter expert and host of The Maximized Minimalist, Katy Wells. Known for her authentic, holistic approach, Katy goes beyond surface-level tidying to uncover the real reasons clutter lingers—and how to break free from it for good.Katy has helped hundreds of thousands of people transform chaotic homes into calm, supportive spaces. And today, she's sharing how clutter is deeply tied to our psychology, emotions, and sense of worthiness.We're unpacking: ✔️ How “clutter shame” keeps you stuck in cycles of guilt and avoidance ✔️ The hidden emotional roots behind the stuff you can't seem to get rid of ✔️ Why quick-fix organizing hacks don't last—and what actually does ✔️ How to create lasting freedom from clutter so your home supports your life, not drains it ✔️ Simple mindset shifts that will help you release guilt and reclaim peaceIf you've ever felt weighed down by your home—or ashamed of the clutter you can't seem to conquer—this conversation will help you release the shame, understand the deeper “why,” and finally move toward lasting change.

Ever feel like you're carrying a million to-dos in your head while trying to lose weight? Mental clutter, stress, and decision fatigue can weigh more than the scale ever will. In this episode, Ashley shows how to clear the noise, simplify your choices, and create space to show up for yourself every single day.

Have you ever snapped at your kids over something small… and then instantly felt guilty? Or craved silence so badly you could scream if you hear one more “Mom, Mama, Mommy?" That, mama, is overstimulation. And it's one of the most common — yet least talked about — struggles for moms. The truth is, your brain and body are processing constant noise, touch, and demands every single day. Add in the invisible mental load of keeping a household running, and it's no wonder you feel on edge. In this episode, we're talking about the real reason moms are especially prone to sensory overload, how to recognize the signs in your body and behavior, why pushing through only makes things worse, and small, doable resets you can use daily to stay calm and reset.
