Offered by the Health and Wellness Program 

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of household chores, work, and family life? In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore practical strategies from Fair Play by Eve Rodsky, a groundbreaking approach to redistributing the invisible load of domestic work. Designed for couples, families, and anyone seeking to create more balance at home, this session introduces Rodsky’s method for dividing responsibilities based on fairness, clear communication, and mutual respect.

You’ll learn and apply the following concepts through interactive discussions:

  1. Establish Basic Ground Rules
  2. Build Your Deck (less is more)
  3. CPE and Minimum Standards of Care
  4. Reclaim Time for Personal Pursuits, Well-being, and Self-care
  5. Develop strategies to sustain these changes long-term.

Whether you're in a partnership, living in a shared household, or simply want tools to manage your domestic life more efficiently, this workshop will empower you to shift the dynamic at home and improve your relationships. Come ready to engage in thoughtful discussions, participate in hands-on activities, and leave with actionable steps to create a more balanced and harmonious life.
