Description

On the podcast today, I have the most interesting conversation with <a href= "https://www.everodsky.com/">Eve Rodsky</a>. We talk about the different tasks involved in running a home and keeping a family functioning. Eve spent several months capturing many of the tasks that people (women especially) take on in their families, and she focused on the ones that are especially invisible or “unnecessary.” Eve Rodsky has recently written a book (with a card game) that captures 100 tasks involved in running a home. Her book is called <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0525541934?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creativeASIN=0525541934&linkCode=xm2&tag=warrmama-20"> Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live)</a>. She helps the adults in the house identify their values and to make sure that the division of labor works for them (and EVERY family needs to find their unique balance). When dividing up the tasks, Eve explains the different parts of “owning” the task from start to finish: conception, planning, and execution. Spoiler: this explains why your husband brings home the “wrong” mustard and feels like he “can’t get anything right.” There is a system to help build trust and skills to support the home and family. As part of these concepts, Eve also explains different models that women use to understand their roles and which tasks they should have ownership of in order to have a fair division of labor at home, especially when considering gender.
