About this episode

What would happen if you treated your home as your most important organization?

From dishes to garbage to managing your kids’ activities, Eve and Aditi discuss how to share household responsibilities without resentment or doubling up on efforts—and they hear from a man who claims the ‘system’ forever changed his perception of the mental load.
