"The Light Switch": This One's for the Women Overwhelmed by the Mental Load

Michelle takes a deep breath and checks in on the three pillars of her life: self, relationships, and motherhood. From taking Calm pills for morning anxiety to shutting down Josh's romantic attempts because she couldn't stop thinking about the messy basement rec room and house repairs, Michelle is unpacking why turning off the female brain is easier said than done. Plus, she shares a tearful morning realization about connecting with her 13-year-old son Ben, and the simple car-ride trick that's helping her bridge the gap.
