Who Holds You When You’re Holding Everyone Else with Fi Mims
You’re the one everyone brings their problems to, and by the end of the day there’s rarely anyone left to ask how you’re going. Therapist Marie Vakakis talks with business coach and photographer Fi Mims about life in the sandwich generation, juggling teenagers, ageing parents, a business and a marriage all at once, on the latest episode of This Complex Life. This episode covers: What life looks like in the sandwich generation, with 17 year old twins and two parents in aged care Why the health messaging aimed at women over 40 can leave you feeling like nothing you do is ever enough The unspoken expectations about who carries the mental load, and why workplaces and schools haven’t caught up with families where both partners work Who Fi talks to when things get heavy, and why sharing the load with the right people matters What Fi has learnt about listening in her marriage and with her teens Why planning ahead and slowing down before you’re forced to is worth the discomfort Choosing deeper connection over the easy win of the couch marievakakis.com.au askmarie@marievakakis.com.au
