What are the signature techniques Katy Huie Harrison recommends for managing the mental load in parenting?

I recommend a few key strategies to manage the mental load of parenting. One of them is the Fair Play system, developed by Eve Rodsky, which is a game-changing approach to balance domestic responsibilities. It involves negotiating tasks, balancing physical and mental load, and transforming delegation into a supportive process.

Another technique is to encourage all family members to be aware of their surroundings, identify what needs to be done, and take action to complete tasks. This helps to share the mental load and prevent burnout.

Lastly, it's important to have open conversations with your partner about the mental load. It's okay to ask for help and to seek a more equitable division of labor at home.
