Women’s empowerment has made significant progress in recent decades. More and more women attend school, get jobs, and participate in decision-making. However, there is still much work to be done to achieve gender equality. Independent women are often exhausted for a number of reasons, including:
They Have a Lot on Their Plates
Independent women often have to balance multiple roles, such as being a breadwinner, a caregiver, and a homemaker. This can be a lot to handle, especially if they don’t have much support. Women perform the majority of unpaid care work, such as childcare and housework. This can make it difficult for women to participate in the workforce and to achieve their goals.
They Face Social Pressure
Women may face social pressure to be perfect. They may be expected to be successful in their careers, maintain a perfect household, and be the perfect partner and mother. This pressure can be exhausting, and it can lead to feelings of guilt and inadequacy. It is important to set realistic expectations for yourself and not try to be perfect, but this is easier for men to achieve than women.
They May Not Have Enough Help
Women may not have enough help from their partners, families, or communities. This can make it difficult to manage all of their responsibilities. Women are often expected to be self-sufficient and not need help. This can make it difficult for women to ask for help when needed.
They May Be Afraid to Ask For Help
Some independent women may be afraid to ask for help because they don’t want to be seen as weak or incompetent. They may be afraid of being judged or criticized for asking for help. They may worry that people will think they are weak, incompetent, or needy. It is important to set realistic expectations for yourself and not try to be perfect.
They May Be Dealing With Discrimination and Sexism
Discrimination and sexism can have a negative impact on women’s lives in many ways. It can lead to financial hardship, physical and emotional harm, and social isolation. It can also prevent women from reaching their full potential. One example of discrimination women face is that they may be harassed or assaulted on the street simply because they are women.
They May Be Dealing With Mental Health Challenges
Women are more likely than men to experience certain mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety. This is due to several factors, including hormonal fluctuations, brain chemistry, and genetics. They also face more social and cultural stressors than men, such as sexism, gender-based violence, and caregiver responsibilities. These stressors can contribute to mental health problems.
They May Be Struggling to Find Balance
Independent women may struggle to balance their work, personal, and social lives. This can lead to feelings of exhaustion and burnout and is something that men may experience but not to the degree that women do. The person carrying most of the mental load may feel overwhelmed by the number of tasks that need to be done. This can lead to a feeling of being constantly stressed and on edge.
They May Be Dealing With Difficult Relationships
Women may have difficult relationships with their partners, family members, or friends. Women are more likely than men to be victims of domestic violence. Additionally, women may be in relationships with controlling and manipulative partners. This can make it difficult for women to make their own decisions and to live their lives freely.
They May Be Dealing With Financial Difficulties
Women are paid less than men for doing the same work. The global gender pay gap is 16%, meaning that women earn 16% less than men on average for the same work. In addition, women are underrepresented in leadership positions in the workplace. This means that they are less likely to be promoted to high-paying jobs.
They May Be Dealing With Health Problems
Women may be dealing with their health problems or the health problems of their loved ones. One example is that women in developing countries are at a much higher risk of dying from pregnancy and childbirth complications than those in developed countries.
They May Be Dealing With Racism or Other Forms of Discrimination
Women of color and other marginalized groups may face racism and other forms of discrimination. This can be exhausting and emotionally draining. Black women face intersectional oppression, meaning they experience the combined effects of racism and sexism. This can lead to even greater levels of discrimination and inequality.
They May Be Dealing With the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted women, particularly women of color and working mothers. The pandemic has increased women’s time and energy demands, leading to exhaustion and burnout.
By working together, we can create a world where all women and girls have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
