89: Why Women MUST Do Habits Differently with Monica Packer

Struggle Care

NOTE

The Unseen Labor of Women

Invisible labor, transcending cultures and roles, involves mental, emotional, and physical work to uphold homes, communities, and institutions. This labor is often undervalued and unseen, impacting women's time, energy, and support. It extends beyond caregiving to encompass tasks in various settings like workplaces, churches, and neighborhoods. Even single women without children experience this labor in maintaining their homes and communities. The societal impact of this unseen labor is immense, with estimates suggesting it amounts to a $10.9 trillion industry annually, undervalued at $7.25 per hour. Women contribute significantly to these tasks, juggling responsibilities that go beyond traditional family structures and into broader community and societal roles.
