Who's Carrying What? The Mental Load With Maddie Wilson

Episode Description:

In this episode, Carrie and Alyssa are joined by Madeline, a registered social worker who specializes in helping individuals and couples navigate life's most overwhelming transitions, including the perinatal period, caregiver burnout, anxiety, and depression. Madeline provides both in-person and virtual support to individuals 16+ and couples, offering a safe, grounded space to reconnect to your inner strength and move toward a more connected, confident life.

Together, the three dive into the invisible labor of parenting, aka the mental load. They unpack how it shows up in relationships, especially in the early parenting years, and how it can quietly erode connection without clear communication, shared responsibilities, and emotional safety. Maddie also shares insights into her free course on managing the mental load and offers tangible strategies to help couples reduce conflict and build trust.

✨ This episode is for anyone who’s ever thought, “Why do I have to think of everything?”—and is ready to shift the dynamic.
