Loved this framing - “Because of my personality, I am the executive function-er at home and the reality is that I tend to notice action items/things that need to be done more readily than he does, so I am working on being OK with delegating.”
Sending kudos and high-fives to the sharer of this. You sound like you're staying grounded and focused in a challenging season of life, while caring for yourself and your partner as well as the kids. I really enjoyed reading your approach.
This is very helpful to read as another working mom in the medical field! I’m curious what the meal delivery service is called if the subject is able to share. Meals/cooking are one of my biggest stressors so outsourcing that sounds awesome.
Did this sharer happen to do an episode of the day in her life podcast last year? If so, it is interesting to hear how things are now that she has had her baby.
love the reminder that “having a defensive disposition towards life is so mentally taxing.” great read!!!
Agreed! Loved that point.

We section off a child food area in our fridge too which is a small but impactful hack. Love the idea of scheduling cup filler activities!
Thanks to the sharer and our guru KN!
I loved that idea too! Going to try it!
I love the tidy up challenge idea, I’m going to try that!

The sharer generously responded: “We use Cook Unity. There’s lots of variety and overall the meals have been delicious.”
Thank you!

Electronic medical record :) what physicians use to chart.

This was so relatable to me!!! Purchasing my sanity = exactly!!! Also, love to see a fellow nightly Jeopardy watcher :)

I was just thinking it could be the woman from that episode! It was fun to read because I felt like I already kind of knew her :)
Yes - disclosed with the sharer’s permission!
