Description

Host Danielle Moss sits down with Paige Connell of @sheisapaigeturner. The two working moms dive into the complexities of the mental load, motherhood, and what equitable partnership really looks like.

Paige shares her personal journey, from experiencing infertility and IVF, to fostering and adopting her two oldest children, and balancing life as a working mom to four. She opens up about the moment she reached her breaking point with the mental load, how she and her husband learned to divide domestic responsibilities in a way that works for them, and the realities of going viral online.

The conversation highlights the expectations placed on women, navigating hate on the internet, and practical steps for couples who want to create a more balanced home life.

Whether you’re struggling with the invisible labor of running a household, curious about foster care and adoption, or just need reassurance that you’re not alone in feeling overwhelmed, this episode is a reminder that everyone is figuring it out as they go.
