More Episodes
The record-screech moment in this podcast is in the title: The definition of self-care is "creating a life that you don't regularly need to escape from." My guest Tami Hackbarth is back to drop some knowledge bombs for our home life and that can help your organizing clients live better as well. 
 
Today we are talking about a fabulous resource called Fair Play--and I am excited to have you have this for yourselves and for clients. It works for all types of family systems and structures and I am hopeful it will help lots of people live better. 
 
In part 2 of my discussion with Tami, we get into a range of topics from the often-overlooked reasons behind relationship breakdowns, such as the failure to share household responsibilities, to the broader implications of self-care. We talk about 'weaponized incompetence,' generational shifts in domestic roles, and how maintaining a functional, rather than perfect, home can contribute to better relationships. The conversation weaves through the impact of childhood responsibilities on adult capabilities, co-parenting challenges, and practical steps for teaching children essential life skills. The episode emphasizes the importance of creating a life that doesn't necessitate escape and the value of communal support in achieving balanced and equitable family dynamics.
