The most thought-provoking section is:

"The mental load is the fact that you have 500 tabs open in your head simultaneously while you’re doing the dishes. The mental load is the engine under the hood that makes the whole ‘car’ move forward. It’s not something that you can just clock out of."

This perfectly describes the relentless mental juggling that so many of us do daily.

It’s not just about physical tasks, but the constant cognitive strain of keeping everything running.

Your metaphor of having 500 tabs open is so relatable, there’s always something to remember, track, or prepare for, and it can feel overwhelming.

It’s a powerful reminder that taking steps to share the load and delegate isn't just practical, it’s necessary for our mental well-being.
