• 350: How to Not Resent Your Partner (Even When You’re Drowning in Dishes and To-Do Lists) with Mary Catherine Starr

  Ever feel like you’re the only one who knows when the kids need new shoes, what’s in the fridge, and that the toilet paper supply is dangerously low? That’s the mental load of motherhood, and if you’re drowning in invisible tasks while your partner somehow doesn’t notice, you’re not alone. Today, we’re joined by Mary Catherine Starr—artist, feminist, and creator of Mom Life Comics—who’s back for her second time on the podcast to share hilarious and painfully relatable truths about motherhood, marriage, and mental overload. Her new book, Mama Needs a Minute, puts all those unspoken frustrations into words (and comics), making moms everywhere feel seen. In this episode, we break down the mental load of motherhood and how to balance it without feeling like a nag or giving up altogether. Mary Catherine shares why household tasks slowly shift onto moms, how to set boundaries (without guilt), and why sometimes the best move is just… doing nothing. If you’ve ever gritted your teeth at a sink full of dishes or wondered why no one else seems stressed about school picture day, this episode is for you!
