On the surface, it may seem you and your partner put in equal parts effort when it comes to the home, relationship, and parenting. But underneath all the tangible to-dos lives an invisible emotional layer of emotional labor. There’s a level of exhaustion brought on by the constant, unrelenting consideration of others that women are so familiar with. It’s thanks to Eve Rodsky that I’m even aware of this phenomenon, let alone have the vocabulary to express it. She’s out on a mission to change 21st-century relationships by giving a solution to an age-old problem: The uneven domestic and childcare burden carried mostly by women. She turned a personal breakdown into the catalyst for change that led to one profound question: What if we treated our homes as our most important organization? Her NYT bestselling book Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live) is a system to help couples rebalance the burden and reimagine their relationships. She gives us the magic formula for “fair play” in the home and learning to see the undervalued thought work that goes behind the obvious execution.
