Marriage + Partnership is a challenge…
especially when one person is doing all the housework.
I get it. You’re responsible for it all.
You’re the default house + schedule + everything manager.
You anticipate everyone else’s needs + feelings.
No one seems to value or respect your time.
You do all the unseen, unacknowledged daily tasks.
You’re starting to ruminate, feel resentment, and whole lotta irritation.
Have you been wishing others would help more?
Are you unsure of how to start the conversation around sharing the load?
Your home is more than logistics + to-do’s.
Your family has a shared purpose + path.
When everyone contributes, everyone benefits.
What I’ve discovered…
Over the last handful of years, my husband and I have equitably divided our household + parenting responsibilities. It wasn’t always that way.
Early in our marriage he was traveling and working long hours. I was the default parent to our 3 kids and was the primary household manager.
As the kids became involved in more activities and I returned to work, sharing the load became a necessity.
Now we take it one task, one kid, one week,
one conversation at a time.
