Over time, that can affect their careers, relationships, confidence, and sense of identity.New York Times bestselling author Eve Rodsky joins Tamsen to explain Fair Play, a system that makes invisible work visible and gives one person complete ownership of each responsibility, from noticing that it needs to happen through planning and execution. Eve shares the “blueberries breakdown” that led her to create it, why “Just tell me what to do” still leaves women managing the work, and how boundaries, systems, and communication can change the way a family runs.If you are the person who remembers every appointment, manages an aging parent’s care, or follows up when no one else does, this episode offers a practical way to stop carrying everyone else’s responsibilities in your head and start treating your own time as equally valuable.They get into:- How Fair Play applies beyond marriage and motherhood- How to tell whether the problem requires a boundary, a system, or a conversation- When guilt is really a response to someone else’s discomfort- Why fairness does not always mean a 50-50 split- What it takes to build an identity beyond being neededFor everything mentioned in this episode, click this linkIf you liked this episode, you'll love Israa Nasir: Why You Always Feel Behind (And How to Break Free)If you want a say on our upcoming guests, fill out this formStay connected with Tamsen:Get Tamsen's newsletter filled with free tools to living better, feeling stronger, and knowing you’re never aloneGet Tamsen’s NYT instant bestselling book, How To MenopauseFree Resources from Tamsen Watch all the episodes on YouTubeFollow Tamsen on Instagram The Tamsen Show on InstagramFollow Tamsen on TikTok Follow Eve on InstagramGet Eve's book, Fair Play: A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do (and More Life to Live)Sponsors:Your symptoms have answers.
