Lighten the Load: Digital Guide (PDF)
A workbook for the mental load you carry
$3.99
The planning, remembering and noticing that keeps a home, a family or a team running is real work, and most of it is invisible. Lighten the Load helps you put that hidden work on paper, shrink it, and hand over whole jobs instead of single errands.
Based on our Journal article on the mental load, this workbook adds a self-check, a load inventory worksheet (who notices, who plans, who does), handover scripts you can adapt, answers to the usual obstacles, and a seven-day plan.
It is written for different lives: partners and parents, women caring for a parent, and women who carry the load at work.
