The Mental Load Is Breaking Us - Here’s How We Fix It - interview with Kate Mangino

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying the invisible weight of running both your home and your career, you’re not alone. The mental load - the relentless planning, remembering, and anticipating that keeps family life moving - falls disproportionately on women, and it’s leaving many of us exhausted, resentful, and stretched too thin.

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Dr. Kate Mangino, gender expert and author of Equal Partners, to uncover the truth about the mental load: what it really is, why it matters, and how we can begin to share it more equally at home. This isn’t just about fairness - it’s about creating the foundations for healthier relationships, happier families, and the space for working mums to truly thrive.
