102. The Invisible Load Backpack: What You’re Carrying That’s Slowing You Down
Moms Make Money: Simple Business and Marketing Strategies for Mom Entrepreneurs
Ever feel like you’re carrying a backpack that just keeps getting heavier even though no one else can see it?
In this episode of Moms Make Money, we’re unpacking the invisible load of motherhood and entrepreneurship — the mental, emotional, and logistical weight that so many moms are carrying silently every single day. From remembering appointments and deadlines to holding everyone else’s needs in your head, this invisible load can leave you feeling exhausted, even when it looks like you’re “handling it.”
Inside this episode, I walk you through the concept of the Invisible Load Backpack and share practical, realistic ways to start lightening it without adding more pressure or “productivity hacks” to your plate. We’ll talk about why the problem isn’t you, how to stop carrying everything alone, and what small shifts can create immediate breathing room in your life and business.
If you’re a mom entrepreneur who feels stretched thin, overwhelmed, or mentally tapped out — this episode is for you.
In this episode, we cover:
- What the invisible load of motherhood really looks like
- Why feeling exhausted doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong
- How to redistribute responsibilities (at home and in business)
