Most couples wait until they’re already drowning to ask for help. The strongest couples are the ones who choose support before disconnection becomes the norm.

We’ve heard it so many times from couples after coaching:
“I wish we’d done this sooner.”

Don’t get me wrong, if you’re already feeling distance, it’s not too late. We’ve helped plenty of parents repair before that gap becomes unmanageable. But the earlier you lean in, the more space you give yourselves to enjoy this season instead of just surviving it.

That’s why we’re opening up our next group of couples starting October 6. Whether you’re expecting your first or knee-deep in the newborn trenches, this is your chance to build (or rebuild) the connection you need.

ReaderThis week, Mike and I sat down with the mic and I asked him one question: What are you most afraid of as a parent and partner? That one question opened up a really honest, powerful conversation about fatherhood, inadequacy, presence, and what it actually looks like to lead with calm instead of control. It’s a great listen for both moms and dads — maybe even one to play together. I’ve got some exciting things coming your way in tomorrow’s newsletter, but I didn’t want to wait to share...
