  • Feels like a friend chat

    Absolutely adore this podcast! I have followed KC since 2020 and have missed her raw chats. This feels so much like the old times of insta but even better. I love listening and feeling like I am chatting with a friend about all the things. My favorite part “whatever it doesn’t matter” 😂 because it’s literally how we talk to friends while telling a story. We get sidetracked and try to stay on the same story. Keep this up KC! Can’t wait to hear all the episodes to come!

  • 100% worth the follow and listen

    I am NOT a podcast person (seriously, can’t ever get into them) but I’ve followed KC on instagram for a few years and wanted to give this a listen because of much of her story I can relate too. Let me tell you, it’s so validating and real.

  • Easy to listen to one of my best friends

    KC has such a sweet voice, but her knowledge, insights and vulnerability add tremendous strength. KC doesn’t know me, but I feel like she is one of my best friends, during this very challenging and lonely journey of motherhood; she gets it and she is sharing so that no one feels alone. I feel seen. Keep up the lovely work you do KC.

11. Motherhood, Marriage, and the Invisible Load: Dr. Morgan Cutlip on Sharing the Weight
Q: Why is it that or why do you feel the mental load falls primarily on women so often?
The mental load is perceived as a collective burden, and while it's common to have tasks divided, women typically find themselves managing the emotional aspects of family life, leading to feelings of guilt and resentment when expectations aren't met.
