In this episode, Amanda Goetz sits down with Eve Rodsky—the New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play and Find Your Unicorn Space—to unpack one of the most important (and under-discussed) topics for ambitious women today: the invisible labor that keeps households running and the systems needed to make ambition sustainable. In a world where the lines between home, work, and personal ambition are constantly blurred, understanding the dynamics of domestic labor has never been more vital. Eve gets real about: 💭 The unseen emotional labor women carry every day—and why it drains ambition 💡 How to redefine success through systems, boundaries, and honest conversations 🔥 Why “having it all” isn’t the goal—and what fulfillment actually looks like 🦄 The power of “unicorn space” and how to carve out time for joy and creativity ❤️ How to reset relationship dynamics using the Fair Play Framework Let’s dive into what happens when ambition collides with expectation—and how to tactfully rewrite those rules for yourself.
