86- Does EFM= Exhaustion, Burden & Sacrifice while the DH gets to have all the fun?
A personal EFM discussion for all of us in the trailing spouse community. When we sign on for this lifestyle and work- there is a designated role for the direct hire spouse. The role of the eligible family member is less clear and often carries an unexpected Mental Load...and that can get heavy.

Let's start associating EFM with Expansive Freedom in Movement or Exceptionally Fantastic Mindset.
