Do you ever dream of a vacation, but the thought of leaving the house or kids with your husband makes you more stressed than relaxed? You’re not alone. Many women say they either:
Can’t step away because they don’t trust things will get done at home…
Or they come back from a “break” only to find their workload has doubled.
In this episode, I get brutally honest about why this happens, why/how men need to step up, and how this dynamic is silently wrecking marriages. We’ll dig into:
The mental load: what it is and why women are carrying most of it.
Research-backed reasons women don’t get true rest, even when away.
How resentment builds when husbands don’t share the household + parenting responsibility.
Why men need to take initiative (not just wait to be told what to do).
Practical tools for women to let go of control and actually rest.
Step-by-step ways couples can change this narrative—for good.
💡 Whether you’re a husband who wants to show up better or a wife who feels stuck in the cycle of overwhelm, this episode will give you both truth and tools to reset your marriage.
