Relationship expert Dr. Morgan Cutlip is back to break down one of the most common sources of tension in modern partnerships: the mental load. We get into why women often carry more of it, how it impacts connection, and what couples can do to finally feel like a team.
We also talk about the emotional weight of invisible labor, how to communicate needs without defensiveness, and simple ways to keep the spark alive. Plus, Morgan shares insights from her new book, A Better Share—out now!
