Motherhood changes you because it literally alters a woman’s brain—structurally, functionally, and in many ways, irreversibly. - Louann Brizendine, The Female Brain

Summary

Women are gifted in a way that men are not. Women can hold many different tasks in their mind at the same time, see the needs of others, and know the needs of the household and balance them all. Sometimes this can feel empowering, but sometimes it's overwhelming, especially in times of great stress. In some circles, there is a call for men to share the “mental load”, but is that even possible? What is the appropriate role of fathers and husbands and how can they support their wives in this burden that they carry? Listen in as we tackle this tricky topic giving both perspective and advice on rejoicing in our differences.
