I feel like I'm gonna really remember those repair moments.

moments.[upbeat music] I would say the thing that most people know me for is speaking about the mental load, specifically as it relates to motherhood, but I speak about it in general as well.

And my goal with that conversation is to help women articulate what's happening in their lives so they can better process that with their partner, find equity at home, and hopefully in the workplace as well.

And as part of that mission, I also talk about systemic things like lack of paid parental leave, lack of affordable childcare, the motherhood penalty in the workplace.

So my overarching goal is to help women advocate for gender equity in all facets of life, so not being the default parent by default, right? All of these things that I think as a society have been very normal for very long, but are leading women to feel burnt out and exhausted.

And I do that through sharing my own experience, but also just thought leadership on these topics in general.

What's your message for anyone listening that maybe is struggling with the mental load right now and doesn't kind of know the first steps to take, either with their partner or their family or their work?

So with the mental load in particular, I often say the first thing you have to do is just start to understand what it is.
