  • You’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the endless responsibilities of motherhood.
  • You find yourself juggling too many tasks and struggling to keep up.
  • You’ve questioned why the mental load seems to fall disproportionately on your shoulders.

  • You’re interested in understanding the deeper societal expectations placed on mothers.
  • You’re ready to redefine what successful motherhood looks like for you.

In this episode, we dive deep into the often-overlooked invisible load of motherhood—the mental, emotional, and cognitive tasks that mothers juggle daily. Using the metaphor of the “junk drawer,” we explore how random, mismatched responsibilities pile up in a mother’s life, contributing to overwhelm, burnout, and a loss of personal identity.
