Nearly 80% of divorces are filed by women. If she’s college-educated, that number jumps to nine out of ten. Why? It’s not usually because of money, affairs, or abuse anymore. Women are walking away because they’re working full-time, often as the breadwinner, and still carrying the weight of home, kids, and emotional labor.
In this episode of The Supported Wife Society, Lemon breaks down:
The double burden of being both provider and homemaker
How the mental load quietly erodes intimacy and desire
Why women reach a breaking point and feel like “married single moms”
The exact reset path to shift your marriage before you become another statistic
If you’ve ever felt like the default parent, the household CEO, or the one keeping everything afloat, this conversation will hit home. You are not broken. Your marriage dynamic probably is, and that’s fixable.
