Description

Emotional labor is the unnoticed, unwaged, unwritten work women do in the home and in the paid workforce. It includes everything from assuring socks match to coping with a virus, schooling, a job and family life all under one roof. Largely invisible, the mental load of emotional labor weighs heavily on the shoulders of women. Dr. Regina Lark is a feminist historian with years of professional organizing experience in homes, offices and storage spaces. This book examines women’s relationship to emotional labor from early American history to the COVID-19 era. Emotional labor is generally thought to be women’s work, whether at home or in the office, but it is actually not gender specific. It’s just, well, work! Judith Kolberg, a thought-leader in the organizing industry, collaborates with Lark to disrupt the narrative. Lark and Kolberg give emotional labor the respect it deserves as work that is essential to a well-functioning home, family coherence, order, organization and happiness. Emotional Labor: Why A Woman’s Work is Never Done and What to Do About It advocates for a more equitable sharing of emotional labor. The book offers tools and exercises to promote equity including on-going dynamic dialogues, a brand of delegating that directly eases emotional labor, and a ground-breaking reference tool called The Emotional Labor Lifecycle. It also calls for support of social action that addresses women’s rights and equality.
