No More Mediocre: A Call to Reimagine Our Relationships | Laura Danger (Bonus Episode)
About this episode
Diane Boden and Laura Danger discuss the invisible labor in households and how to create equitable partnerships.
Why do so many moms still feel like they're carrying the weight of the household - even in relationships that strive to be equal? In this episode, Diane sits down with licensed educator and author Laura Danger to unpack the invisible labor that keeps so many families overwhelmed. From managing schedules and anticipating everyone's needs to carrying the mental and emotional load of a household, Laura explains why domestic inequality persists - even in modern, well-intentioned partnerships. Drawing from her upcoming book, No More Mediocre , Laura challenges common assumptions about fairness at home and offers practical ways couples can create healthier, more sustainable partnerships. Together, they discuss why care work is real work, how hidden relationship dynamics fuel resentment, and what it looks like to move from keeping score to sharing responsibility.
