Us, again.
Re-connecting with your partner after becoming parents.
The hardest thing about parenting isn’t the kids; it’s each other.
Couples who were so connected can lose each other in early parenthood, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
In this live free webinar, Psychologist Markella Kaplani and Jason Seeman teach methods and lessons from working with hundreds of parents to bring you back together, and to feel like “us”, again.
What happened to us?
-
"I wish I could give him feedback without him taking it personally."
"He's too hard on the kids. I don't want him yelling at them."
"He's not present, even when we're right next to each other."
"He tries to get involved, but he doesn’t do it right and then I end up instructing him and becoming his mum..."
"He doesn’t really understand my day and then comes home and says he’s tired”
-
"I feel like a third wheel in my own relationship."
"She thinks I’m incompetent."
"I feel judged…like I'm not as good as her at this."
"We never make time for intimacy. And honestly, I'm not sure she'd even want it.”
"We feel like completely different people."
You didn't just become parents.
You became someone new.
The distance that grew between you is not a sign that the love is gone. It's an identity shift; one that has a name, and one you can navigate together.
