Christina welcomes Lori, a coach, speaker and author to discuss the unpaid labor of women, mothers and stepmoms. Lori is an advocate for amplifying the value of unpaid labor and influencing how families share the workloads in their homes. Through her children's book, " Our Home: The Love, Work, and Heart of Family" Lori breaks down the invisible labor that occurs in our homes and encourages children to take notice, appreciation and action into contributing to their family flow. Christina shares the stepmom perspective of how hard it is to carry the family load, especially when you don't always know "your role". How can the tasks and duties in the home be shifted? How can the kids become more involved? To the stepmoms who carry the invisible load and need some validation and conversation starters... listen in!
