"When it comes to household responsibilities, women perform far more cognitive and emotional labour than men. Why is this, and is there anything we can do about it?"

Also, notice the Facebook banner ad ... why does Facebook need to advertise? 🤷‍♂️

Todo

• [x] Create persona using https://github.com/dwyl/process-handbook/tree/master/personas
• [x] Create a high resolution screenshot of the resulting persona
• [x] Print the persona for the wall in the office @home to serve as a reminder.

@seaneady this could be a good exercise for you in your Product Owner / UX Research journey. https://github.com/dwyl/hq/issues/577 💭 If you want to pair on it at some point, I can speed run it with you, 🧑‍💻 record my screen on Zoom, upload the video and you can do the next one solo. 📺

Obvs the irony of @iteles, a busy working mum of "Two Under Two!" having this assigned to her is not lost on any of us. 😞 Inês is literally the person who would immediately benefit from our App if it was already working as needed. 💭

I'd definitely like to take a shot at this. Happy with your suggestion above for the first iteration, thanks! @iteles will definitely serve as valued inspiration and I'd be happy to take this off her hands.

Let's take a look at this tomorrow morning after standup. 👌

Tidy screenshot: (the trailing 3 on the next line was bugging me...)

Also Updated my own persona while I had it open:

Ironically our "busy working mum of 2" is too busy with her work to look at this. Closing. ✅

[iteles]

Your ' busy working mother of two' has been on maternity leave and only looking at priority 1 issues 😅

I would just add to the pain points: no way to understand which of her tasks are the highest value or are critical.

And might suggest using a more universally understood name?

Looking great though. Short and sweet. Like the format you guys ended up with too.
