Are Moms and Dads Just Built Differently?

Are Moms and Dads Just Built Differently?

Do mom brains just work differently than dad brains? This is obviously not the case in every family, but in a lot of families - the mother bears the brunt of the mental load. The mother is the one making sure the kids have everything for school, they do all the groceries and list making, they note the things that need fixing and mending and cleaning. So why is that? Do their brains just work differently? Are they just born able to hold everything and multitask endlessly? Or are these dynamics created by society and how family members behave and move throughout their day?


In today’s episode, Rachel unpacks and tries to answer these questions using examples from her own life and family. It’s a big topic, and it can be a controversial one, but maybe there is a way we can share the mental load and rest more. What would happen if moms put it all down? Tune in to explore the intricacies and possibilities.
