#277 | MANAGING THE MENTAL LOAD | WITH DR ROBYN MILLER

The Happy Mama Movement with Amy Taylor-Kabbaz

Welcome to this week’s episode of the Happy Mama Movement podcast.

This week’s guest is Dr. Robyn Miller, a medical doctor and founder of The Mental Load Project, who is dedicated to helping mothers share the mental load that leads to exhaustion, resentment, and overwhelm.

We talk about:

• How the mental load affects mothers and their well-being.
• The social conditioning that leads women to take on invisible, emotional labor.
• Practical strategies for sharing the mental load with partners.
• The importance of equality at home in achieving equality in the workplace and society.
• How to model shared responsibility for our children to promote equality for future generations.

I hope you find this conversation insightful, and if you do, please share it widely so that mothers everywhere can access the support and information they need to thrive.
