Fair Play & the Triple Shift: Why It Matters for Families | B3Inspire w/ Rachel Burton

Why does work end at 5pm, but the second job at home never does? In this B3Inspire series premiere, host Betty Johnson and Fair Play expert Rachel Burton unpack the invisible workload burning out families everywhere—the mental load, cognitive labour, and the "triple shift" that's affecting women's wellbeing, relationships, and career advancement.

What You'll Learn: ✅ What Fair Play is and why traditional "chore charts" fail

✅ The C-P-E model: Conception, Planning, Execution ✅ Understanding the triple shift (paid work + domestic work + mental/emotional labour) ✅ Research showing 73% of cognitive load falls to mothers ✅ How mental load affects stress, depression, and relationship satisfaction ✅ Why this matters for family wellbeing and women's leadership opportunities ✅ Intersectionality: How race, class, and immigration status compound the mental load

Key Concepts: 🧠 Mental Load – The invisible cognitive work of planning, remembering, and coordinating household tasks 📊 The Triple Shift – Paid employment + unpaid domestic work + emotional/mental labour ⚖️ Fair Play Principle – End-to-end ownership, not "helping" 🎯 C-P-E Framework – Conception → Planning → Execution (all three owned by one person)

This Week's Challenge: 📝 Audit one week of invisible tasks. Every time you think of something that needs doing—from "we need milk" to "check in with mum about Sunday dinner"—write it down. Don't change anything yet, just notice. We'll use this audit in Episode 3 when discussing how to start the Fair Play conversation with your partner.
