Show Notes
It’s the first episode of the year and Amanda and Anita are diving headfirst into one of the biggest invisible jobs of all: the mental load. From imagining what the holidays would look like if women had the freedom to simply ‘show up’, to discussing how the food labour isn’t the same as putting the kids to bed. They unpack the unseen work that makes family life function and some of the science behind it.
