🎙️ Episode 58 – The Mental Load of Managing Your Kids’ Wardrobe with Stacey Blea
In this episode, host Hannah Morgan talks with Stacey Blea, founder of ThreadCount, about the invisible mental load parents carry when managing their kids’ clothes. Stacey shares the systems that inspired her to build a practical, time-saving app to track what your children have, what they need, and where it’s stored — helping families save time, money, and mental energy.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
– Managing kids’ clothing is an ongoing mental load for parents.
– Treating wardrobes like an inventory system saves time and reduces double-buying.
– The ThreadCount app gives visibility into what you own, need, store, and can share.
đź’¬ Quotes from Stacey Blea:
– “No company would expect you to manage hundreds of items across three locations from memory — yet that’s what parents do every season.”
– “Once an item is in the system, it lives there until you’re ready to sell, donate, or hand it down.”
– “Reducing the mental load starts with visibility — knowing what you have and where it is.”
