About this listen
Look just about anywhere these days, and it's hard to escape the tradwife-lite look. You know, the perfectly curated content that seems designed to sell us on the lie that women should be managing the home and child-rearing without any help.
Or that, if we do get some kind of support – paid or unpaid – we're lucky.
It's a narrative that's, frankly, disturbing.
And yet, it can make even most badass women believe that we're somehow shameful to need help at home.
Or that we should be grateful to get any.
No and no.
There's that old adage that "behind every successful man, stands a great woman." But behind every successful woman stands…what exactly?
In most cases, there's a team. And while more women are open about this than they were in the past, women are still absorbing messages that the "ideal" is one that leaves them doing it all.
Time to turn down that noise.
What You'll Learn:
- the trouble with the nuclear family ideal
- Math vs. drama around the mental load
- Transferring team-building skills at work to team-building at home
