EP 76: The Mental Load of First Responder Spouses- What No One Talks About

Season 2 Episode 76

In this episode of the Proud Police Wife Podcast, we're diving into something every first responder spouse feels—but rarely talks about: the mental load. From managing the household solo to anticipating emotional landmines after a tough shift, police spouses carry an invisible weight that often goes unnoticed.

I’m opening up about what this looks like in real life, why it’s so heavy, and how we can start lightening the load—emotionally and practically.
