The hardest part isn't doing the laundry, packing the lunches, or remembering the appointments. It's feeling like you're the only one carrying the responsibility. In this episode, I sit down with relationship therapist and coach Mika Ross to explore why so many women end up carrying the invisible mental load, how society quietly reinforces those patterns, and what it really takes to build a more equal partnership at home. If you've ever thought, "Why do I have to ask?" this conversation is for you.
In this episode, we unpack:
- Why the mental load isn't a personal failure—it's a systemic issue
- How to divide household responsibilities without creating more conflict
- The hidden cost of overfunctioning and how to stop doing it
- Practical ways to build a more equal partnership at home
- Why communication, accountability, and letting go are the keys to lasting change
