The invisible load of motherhood weighs heavily on moms, making them feel like they are constantly behind.
There’s always more to do–more to clean, more to take care of, more to think about.
The problem is we often don’t even see the invisible load for what it is.
We might realize that we are the default cleaners. But what we don’t realize is that it comes with a world of labor, including:
〰 Developing organizational systems
〰 Knowing where everything is
〰 Dealing with random paperwork
〰 Organizing closets
〰 Making sure the kids have clothes that fit
〰 Managing children’s artwork and school forms
〰 Keeping a mental inventory of items in the home
〰 Cleaning all the things
〰 Managing random clutter
〰 Washing laundry, folding it, and putting it away
〰 Organizing and containing toys
〰 Constantly trying to tolerate the mess
Is it any wonder that moms feel overwhelmed?
This labor is ongoing, demanding, and exhausting.
The never-ending to-do list can make us feel like we are in a never-ending state of stress–and that we will never escape the burden.
But the truth is that we don’t have to do it all–and we shouldn’t have to do it alone.
