About this listen

We explore how marriage shifts when kids arrive, from mental load and the default parent dynamic to finding time and energy to stay close as partners. We share simple, low-cost ways to reconnect, use love languages, and keep conversations from becoming kid logistics.

• how roles shift and the default parent emerges
• the mental load behind activities, clothes, and schedules
• moving from household managers back to partners
• low-lift date ideas and novelty to spark connection
• prompts and card decks for better conversations
• sharing tasks with clear ownership and systems
• using love languages to make care land
• planning future goals to restore a shared horizon
