I try and explain the mental load to my husband and he just doesn’t get it. So I list off the 10 things swirling around in my head at that exact moment and he just looks at me dumbfounded 🙃

What works for us is I do the mental load and he does the majority of the tasks. I’ll happily plan and coordinate and leave the actual tasks to him. It’s balanced for us.
