Ep 24: Finding Balance in the Division of Domestic Labor with Zach Watson
This week on the @bloomafterbaby podcast we're talking about the gender-based division of labor at home with Zach Watson. Zach is the creator of the wildly popular social media account @realzachthinkshare where he talks about things like invisible labor, the mental and emotional load, decision fatigue and equitable partnering, sharing annecdotes and examples that help make these concepts totally relatable.
In this episode we'll discuss:
* Exploring invisible labor and mental/emotional load in relation to mental health
* Examining tasks defaulting to moms, like child care, family scheduling, and home organization
* Discussing how these tasks accumulate and lead to overwhelm
* Highlighting the emotional toll of certain tasks, particularly child care
* Unpacking gender norms and standards contributing to the unequal distribution of invisible labor
* Offering solutions for achieving balance in relationships
