MENTAL LOAD
A free 4-day challenge to figure out why the mental load ended up with you,
and OFFLOAD it...
without your family falling apart!
March 11-14, 2024 at 12:00pm ET
In this free 4-Day Challenge, you’ll:
So that you’re not drowning in a to-do list that never seems to get done.
*How did all this wind up with me?
*Why should I have to fix the problem, too?
*Isn’t that just more work for ME?
"It's easier if I just do it." Right?
WRONG!
You’ll create new beliefs about what’s possible & why you DO have time to shift the domestic duties at home.
Learn how to show up differently so that your family takes this new system seriously.
Learn a loving way to get your partner on board without threats, passive-aggressive comments, resentment, or… needing to fall apart just to get noticed.
listen. i know...
… your partner is an amaaazing parent to your kids. And a wonderful partner to you.
Most days, you feel so lucky.
BUT ALSO… the pressures of daily life are intense.
Your mental to-do list never gets any shorter, no matter how much you do.
The KNOWING, the REMEMBERING + the REMINDING all sit with you.
But you just can’t figure out how to make things change.
Most days you hesitate to bring it up with your partner because…you don’t want to seem ungrateful and you don’t want to make them feel like a bad husband or bad father.
It seems "easier" for everyone that you keep being the Taskmaster. (Even though you know deep down that burnout city is close.)
do any of these sound like you?
01
“I’m tired of carrying the mental load at home”.
➡ My kids always come to ME, even if my partner's standing right there! I wish I wasn't the only one who knew the exact location of their favorite sweatshirt or the minutiae of every birthday party.
02
"My partner does a decent amount around the house...."
➡but I’m the only one who packs everything for trips, remembers camp registration & birthday gifts. And the mental gymnastics to plan our schedule (in excruciating detail!) around naps + family events.
03
“It's easier to just do it myself.”
➡ I don’t have the patience to explain things. By that time... I could just get it done! (Plus, I hate nagging.) How can I even find the time to make a change?
If any of these sound like you, you won't want to miss this challenge!
Hi! I'm Catherine....
Gender roles have always bugged me.
Back in college, I did a research paper on Halloween costumes for children and was floored. For boys? Scary, violent & tough costumes, like ninjas + ghouls. For girls? Lots of pretty princesses + caring professions.
So many of the disparities for adults come from outdated gender roles. And it starts so early…
So I founded Think or Blue, a movement to support children to thrive in a world free from gender stereotypes. Now I coach caregivers to unravel old gender roles so that children can be proud of who they are.
But, as adults, we struggle, too. Even with a super supportive spouse at home, there were days that I juggled the breast pump, daycare drop-offs + late hours at work, feeling like it could all come crashing down if one thing went wrong.
After seeing so many moms in my community struggle with burnout & resentment, I became a certified Fair Play Facilitator. With these tools, I help drained parents implement systems that truly work to balance out the mental load & rediscover their passions and purpose.
Will you wake up one day & barely recognize yourself? I know you want your family to be proud of you… not just for being a good mom or a good wife, but for being an interesting person who goes for her dreams!
Are you ready? Can’t wait to see you there!
FAQ
Q: How much does this cost?
A: It’s free! Come on in and share it with a burned out friend who could use a boost.
Q: What if I can't attend live?
A: Showing up live will get you the best experience. Plus, we’ll have some cool prizes for people who show up live & do each day’s assignment. (Yippee!) BUT, if this time doesn’t work for your schedule or time zone, sign up anyway and you’ll get access to all the replays.
Q: Is this only for women?
A: No. While we will talk about socialization of women and girls, this challenge is open to any person who feels like the default household manager. This challenge is not intended for couples to come together. (I have other trainings for couples.)
Q: Do I have to be on social media?
A: All the live trainings will happen in a private Facebook group. I’ll send you 2 emails each day: one reminder to come join us + one recap of the assignment and replay.
Q: How long is each day of the challenge?
A: About 20 minutes! (30 max.) I'm packing in the info to be short + sweet, with your busy schedule in mind. Stay tuned for a possible bonus training and Q&A.
Q: I'm busy. How am I supposed to find the time for this?
A: You probably wouldn't be reading this page if you had all the free time in the world. If you feel flooded by the to-dos, that's the very reason why you should come. I'm going to help you find a different way of doing things - - one that will minimize the hectic, busy lifestyle.
