The Mental Load of Modern Motherhood
Modern motherhood rarely looks like a serene cup of coffee in a spotless kitchen. It looks more like a browser with 27 tabs open—school updates, doctor appointments, WhatsApp groups, homework reminders, health checklists, work deadlines, and somewhere in there a whisper: ‘Am I doing enough?’ Or worse—'Am I a bad mom?’ We don’t talk enough about the mental load of moms today.
The pressure to be a present parent, an efficient worker, an understanding partner, a homemaker, a scheduler, a planner—sometimes all in the same hour—is overwhelming. You pack the school tiffin, but forget your own breakfast. You ace the PTA meeting, while mentally prepping for a work call. You remind your child to drink water… and realize you haven’t all day.
The truth? You don’t have to close every tab. But maybe—just
for today—you can mute the one labeled ‘guilt.’ Because you're already doing
more than enough. You are enough. Motherhood isn’t about perfect routines. It’s
about small wins, quiet strength and the courage to keep showing up—for your
kids, and for yourself.
What’s the one mental tab you wish you could shut off today?
Let’s open up the conversation. You never know who needs to hear that they’re
not alone.
