Are you the one tracking the dentist appointments, school forms, birthday gifts, custody schedules, groceries, and all the details everyone else seems to forget?
That invisible work has a name: the mental load.
In this episode of The Stepmom Diaries, I'm sharing my conversation with Eve Rodsky, New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play and Find Your Unicorn Space. We talk about the mental load in blended families and why so many stepmoms feel exhausted from carrying invisible labor no one else sees.
This conversation is honest, validating, and so needed for stepmoms who feel like they are holding everything together behind the scenes.
In this episode, we cover:
Why stepmoms often carry the invisible labor
How the mental load shows up differently in blended families
Why boundaries and communication have to come before systems
