Emotional labor is the invisible, unrecognized, and often unspoken work that keeps households, relationships, and workplaces functioning. It is the constant mental effort of remembering, planning, anticipating needs, managing emotions, and holding everything together-work that is rarely acknowledged, yet never-ending.
In Emotional Labor: Why a Woman's Work Is Never Done and What to Do About It - Second Edition, Dr. Regina F. Lark, a feminist historian and Certified Professional Organizer, joins forces with industry thought leader Judith Kolberg to bring clarity and visibility to this hidden labor. Together, they reframe emotional labor as essential work driven by executive function, not gender-work that is critical to the well-being, organization, and harmony of daily life.
This fully updated second edition expands the conversation to reflect today's realities, including the growing demands of the "triple day," the evolving workplace, caregiving across the lifespan, and the lasting effects of emotional labor on mental and physical health. It explores how emotional labor appears across different identities, relationships, and stages of life, offering a deeper and more inclusive perspective.
More than defining the problem, Lark and Kolberg provide actionable tools and practical frameworks for creating meaningful change. Through deliberate dialogues, exercises, and strategies such as Radical Delegation(TM), readers are empowered to redistribute responsibilities, reduce overwhelm, and build more equitable systems at home and in the workplace.
Emotional Labor invites readers to recognize the unseen work they carry and offers a path toward sharing it more fairly-so no one has to carry the invisible load alone.
