Carry some of the load
Today's talk · preview
Day 16. Let's talk about the load.
In a lot of marriages, one person carries more than the other. Not just the chores. The thinking. Remembering the appointments. Noticing when the milk is low. Planning birthdays. Knowing what the kids need for school. That invisible work is exhausting, and resentment grows fast when one person carries it alone.
Helping out is good. But owning something is better. Owning means you plan it, remember it, and do it, without being asked.
the rest is in the app
