#151: How Patriarchy & Capitalism Shape Self-Worth - interview with Graeme Seabrook

I’m with Graeme Seabrook, certified life coach and founder of The Mom Center talking about how capitalism and the patriarchy shape the way we view motherhood, how this impacts our self-worth and how to start advocating for your wants. We discuss:

- The personal story that inspired Graeme to become a coach for moms,

- How capitalism and patriarchy is in EVERYTHING and particularly how it shapes motherhood,
- How we are gendering our kids from birth and the implications this has on how we show up as parents,
- What “the motherload” is and the burden it puts in our well-being,
- How to identify the mental, emotional, physical and financial labor you put into your partnership and how to start to shift it,
- The importance of making your “motherload” visible in order to shift the balance,
- How “the motherload” impacts our sense of self-worth,
- Why it’s so hard to identify and advocate for our wants and how to start doing that,
Plus, so much more!
