What a treat it was to see @jonbatiste perform. ( I was so excited I forgot to wear pants.) His musical presence isn’t like anything I’ve seen before. He is unguarded and playful, and he bridges the feelings from his heart to yours with a magical rainbow of sounds. He is all at once: in his own world, and yet intimately present alongside you while you listen. His authenticity is impossible ignore. He is truly enchanting.

I can’t believe I JUST learned (thanks to @realzachthinkshare ) about decision fatigue and mental load. For years I struggled to articulate this “feeling” I had, as if my brain needed a nap. Not my body, just my mind. I’d become practically paralyzed with brain fatigue when I had to make the teeniest most inconsequential decisions. Even fun ones! I used the word “overwhelmed” to describe this, but it wasn’t specific enough.
Prior to my discovery of @realzachthinkshare , when someone in my house asked me where the ketchup was, I wanted to scream (at the very top of my lungs)… “YOU HAVE EYES! USE THEM!” …Which, logically I know is a bit intense. But I reeeaallly felt like doing it.
Watching Zach explain mental load and decision fatigue had me feeling SO SEEN! I realized that important decision making, like … whether and when to get the flu shot, mentally adjusting my whole day to allow for a sick child staying home, how to make a quirky family schedule work (so we still had a lot of time to snuggle together)… was taking A LOT out of me. I struggled with “overthinking”… but I was doing the right amount of thinking, because they were important, right? I’d then find myself no longer having the capacity to think about some of the smaller things. I wanted someone to make some decisions for ME. Queue mental load and decision fatigue! Once I understood this, it made SUCH a difference in my ability to be kind to myself when I’m overloaded, and not wonder if I’m unhinged and inadequate for being stressed about one too many choices.
I was then able to identify and put into words (🤯) to those around me how I was feeling and WHY, and it got a whole lot better!…
If you are the default caregiver, or ANYONE who makes a lot of choices each day, please know hitting a capacity point is totally normal and YOU are absolutely normal. Check out @realzachthinkshare for alternate ways to talk about mental load, decision fatigue, and the invisible domestic labor in our homes.
Someone pls tell me what it means

It’s International Women’s Day!! I can’t think of a better time to amplify the voices of local women leaders.
Women in countries affected by conflict are the HEART and SOUL of their communities, and when they come together as local organizations, that’s when the magic happens!
The Women’s Peace and Humanitarian Fund is raising much-needed support for women building peace across the globe. I’m talking about the REAL DEAL: WOMEN creating LOCAL solutions to URGENT challenges and building a more PEACEFUL world for ALL.
Check out the link in my bio to watch and share the stories of 25 incredible women leaders who inspire me EVERY SINGLE DAY.
And join me and my friends at WPHF as we call on the world to #InvestInWomen and their transformational work on the front lines. #globalgoals
Happy International Women’s Day!
