A weekly podcast series asking newsworthy experts and leaders the tricky questions about the politics of everything that matters to mankind in the 21st century. Host Amber Daines is a former journalist turned media trainer, speaker, and author who is also devoted to raising her young family.
The mental load is a term for the invisible labour involved in managing a household and family, which typically falls on women’s shoulders. It seems to have become something we can debate and dissect but what does it mean for feminism and equality between genders? Enter my guest Mia Northrop who regularly shares insights and inspiration on life admin and the mental load. Her work explores how to use everyday digital tools and principles from time management, productivity and behavioural science to streamline, automate and reduce paperwork and optimise our approach to household organisation. Mia is cohost of the top-rated how-to podcast Life Admin Life Hacks, coauthor of Life Admin Hacks (we have had her co-author Dinah Rowe-Roberts on this show) and co-creator of The Art of Adulting online course, resources dedicated to helping people win back time, save money, reclaim their headspace and nurture household harmony. Mia is a former researcher who worked in the tech and digital sectors. With a background in human-centered design and design thinking, and a passion for social justice, Mia is a trained coach who is passionate about equipping working mothers with tools, strategies, and processes to give them the time, energy and presence they deserve.
Hear from Mia on:
· How do you define the term “mental load” and how did it become something largely associated with women?
· How can we create a mental load measurement to make sense of the time and energy we spend as women and carers?
· What is the best way to redistribute a mental load if you want to avoid burn out AND not drop the ball?
· For single-working mothers how does that load change and shift in your experience?
