The Mental Load Blueprint

Product Description

The mental load is real work. Name it, manage it, redistribute it.

The mental load — the continuous cognitive and emotional management of family life — is invisible, relentless, and exhausting. It is typically carried asymmetrically and rarely acknowledged. This guide provides the tools to change that.
