In this thought-provoking video, we explore the hidden reasons why modern marriages are struggling, both in the bedroom and beyond. The core issue? For women ages 20-49 it's most likely due from the overwhelming mental load that women carry while trying to "have it all."

From balancing demanding careers and motherhood to maintaining relationships and navigating societal pressures, women are stretched thin, leading to stress, high cortisol, and strained intimacy. We break down the concept of mental load — the constant mental juggling of responsibilities, tasks, and micro-tasks that women manage daily, like a computer with countless open tabs that never truly close.

Key points discussed: The Myth of "Having It All": Why women are told they can juggle careers, family, and social lives, but the reality of finite time creates a hyper-stressed, hyper-masculinized state.

Work and Financial Independence: How women’s desire for financial security and personal fulfillment through work can shift family priorities, sometimes leading to financial division or resentment.

Motherhood’s Impact: The activation of "mom mode" and how it biologically wires women to prioritize children, often at the expense of intimacy and personal well-being.

Social Media’s Role: How curated highlight reels on social platforms distort perceptions of a "normal" life, fueling unrealistic expectations and self-induced pressure.

Practical Insights: Understanding the toll of mental load on relationships and why phrases like "I’m too tired" or "I don’t have time" reflect genuine exhaustion, not excuses.

This video is a must-watch for anyone seeking to understand the challenges of modern relationships and how to navigate them with empathy and awareness. Whether you’re a spouse, partner, or simply curious about the dynamics of marriage today, this discussion offers valuable insights into fostering healthier connections.
