Katie Kimball Season 1 Episode 62

My guest today, Dr Morgan Cutlip, is a sought-after relationship expert, but she doesn’t talk down to moms - she’s right in it with us.

If you’ve ever had a disagreement with your spouse about who’s doing more than the other in the home, how full your brain is, or whether one of you is angry or just using your “go time” or “business” voice – you need this info.

We’ll dig deep into mental load with topics such as:

  • what the mental load IS and why it really really impacts our relationships…
  • possible gender roles when it comes to mental load and how that impacts our marriages
  • the conversations we need to have with spouses 
  • how to model good relationship building as a life skill for our kids
  • the difference between discernment and judgement and how to teach that to our kids
  • one super practical tip to raise kids who take initiative as adults
