Constantly Exhausted and Can't Switch Off?
A psychologist's guide to reducing mental load for working mums.
If you’re constantly thinking, planning, remembering, and managing, even when others help, this free guide is for you.
The mental load isn’t about doing more.
It’s about carrying too much.
Why This Matters
Many working mums feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, and quietly resentful, even though they’re capable and doing their best.
This isn’t because you’re failing.
It’s because you’re holding an invisible load that rarely gets shared.
This guide was created to help you feel:
less overwhelmed
less guilty
more supported
Without adding another thing to your to-do list.
What You’ll Find Inside
In The Constantly Exhausted and Can't Switch Off resource, you’ll be gently guided to:
✨ understand what the mental load really is (and why it’s so heavy)
✨ see where your energy is going without judgement
✨ reduce overwhelm without doing more or trying harder
✨use gentle, psychologist-written scripts to share responsibility
✨ set boundaries without drowning in guilt
✨choose “good enough” and stop there
Everything inside is practical, compassionate, and realistic for real family life.
This Guide is for you if …
your mind rarely switches off
you’re often the one who notices, remembers, and plans
you feel guilty when you stop helping or step back
you’re tired of “coping” and want something to genuinely shift
You don’t need to be at breaking point.
You just need to feel like the load has become too heavy.
What This Isn’t
This guide is not:
a productivity system
a time-management checklist
advice that asks you to do more
a judgement on how you mother
It’s a supportive reset, not a demand.
Dr Kelly Young
I’m a psychologist who supports working mums who are carrying too much.
In my work, I see how often the mental load falls quietly on mothers, and how overwhelming and isolating that can feel.
My approach is gentle, evidence-based, and grounded in real life.
There’s no pressure here, just understanding and support.
When I am not in my clinic, you will find me working towards my own work / life balance by spending time with my family, enjoying the seaside, eating out with friends, or at a Pilates class. I am looking forward to getting to know you too.
