In today’s fast-paced world, women often find themselves juggling a multitude of responsibilities, both at home and in the workplace which often goes unnoticed and unappreciated. From planning family events to managing office morale, this invisible labor often falls disproportionately on women, leading to feelings of burnout and resentment. The term “invisible workload” highlights the emotional and mental tasks that keep our lives and workplaces running smoothly, yet rarely receive acknowledgment.
But in today’s episode I address this pressing issue. I encourage you to start by recognizing your own contributions, keeping a journal of daily tasks to highlight the invisible labor you perform. This practice not only fosters self-awareness but also creates opportunities for open conversations about sharing responsibilities in both personal and professional relationships. Tune in today to listen to this eye opening episode.
