If you’ve ever muttered “Why am I the only one who remembers everything?” while mentally prepping forms for the dentist, birthday RSVPs, and dinner plans, this one’s for you.
🎙️ Inside this episode, I sit down with Hannah Morgan, founder of Heron House Management, to unpack:
✨ What “mental load” really looks like (spoiler: it’s not just remembering school picture day)
✨ Why even the most well-meaning partners fall short when it comes to truly sharing household responsibilities
✨ How Hannah’s team of virtual house managers are changing the game for working moms everywhere
🧠 From systems that divide cognitive labor to stories about relationship strain and divorce driven by burnout, we don’t shy away from the hard truths. But we also offer real solutions for creating balance at home…without carrying it all alone.
💥 What You’ll Learn:
• The hidden emotional and cognitive tasks most moms are juggling daily
• Why “help” from your partner isn’t the same as “shared responsibility”
• What a virtual house manager actually does (and how it saves your sanity)
• Why mental load imbalances lead to resentment, and even relationship breakdowns
• How to build systems that prevent burnout and empower every family member to contribute
