The Invisible Load (Nobody Talks About)
<p>If you've ever been lying in bed mentally writing tomorrow's lunch orders, remembering it's Book Week, wondering if the dog's been fed, planning dinner, realising you forgot to RSVP to a birthday party... while the person next to you is peacefully thinking about absolutely nothing......this episode is for you.This week we're talking about the mental load. Not the washing. Not the dishes. Not who's physically taking the bins out.We're talking about the invisible job of remembering that the bins need to go out in the first place.The endless to-do list that seems to live in women's heads. The birthdays. The permission slips. The "Can you remind me..." texts. The school emails. The family calendar. The Mother's Day gifts. The thank-you cards. The shopping list. The dinner plan. The emotional weather report of everyone in the house.And perhaps our biggest question...Why are women always the planner... but so rarely planned for?#TheBluntAndTheBeautiful #MentalLoad #EmotionalLabour #InvisibleLabour #PeoplePleasing #Relationships #Marriage </p>
