Time Out: A Fair Play Podcast

Eve Rodsky authored “Fair Play,” a book and card deck designed to help people dive deeper into essential conversations around household equity. After a powerful discussion with Eve in a recent episode, Simone and Daniel take the opportunity to play the “Fair Play” card game, exploring personal stories about gift-giving and breakfast traditions that reveal the unseen emotional labor in family dynamics. Eve shares her insights on how the game not only helps redistribute household tasks but also fosters deeper understanding between partners!

We chronically undervalue the invisible domestic tasks that women disproportionately own. Eve Rodsky took this imbalance head on by authoring “Fair Play” and creating the corresponding card deck. She shares how we often view women’s time like sand, and men’s like diamonds. Plus, she reveals insights from her latest research — relevant whether you're a parent, a partner, or just interested in playing a little bit more fair.

What scares you about pursuing your dreams? And what’s waiting on the ‘other side’ of your fear? Whether it’s the classic fear of failure, or of climbing your own personal Mount Everest, Eve and Aditi share strategies for combating the perfectionist self-talk that often gets in our way. They are joined by Dr. Brad Johnson and Dr. David Smith, co-authors of ‘Good Guys: How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace’, on how to take risks and change our personal narrative.
