On this episode of Double A Chattery, we reflect on the emotional cost of being informed, the impact of negative feeds, and why humans simply aren’t equipped to absorb this much distress on repeat.

It’s the first episode of the year and Amanda and Anita are diving headfirst into one of the biggest invisible jobs of all: the mental load.
