The Relationship Check-In Guide is a gentle, supportive resource created for parents who want to stay emotionally connected while navigating the realities of life after kids. Because I only have to scroll on the mum Facebook pages to know what a common topic this is and how much we all find the changes of our relationship post children pretty bloody huge!
It’s designed to help couples slow down, check in with each other, and create space for conversations that often get lost in the busyness of parenting. The guide acknowledges how much shifts once children enter the picture and offers reassurance that feeling disconnected doesn’t mean your relationship is failing, it usually means you’re in a demanding season and there are ways to communicate that.
Inside, you’ll be guided through how to approach regular check-ins in a way that feels safe, realistic, and doable for parents with limited time and energy. There is a strong focus on lowering expectations, reducing defensiveness, and learning how to talk when things aren’t already at breaking point.
The guide gently holds space for topics that commonly sit under the surface for parents, including support, mental load, resentment, emotional safety, and intimacy after children. Rather than pushing for solutions, it encourages understanding, curiosity, and shared responsibility.
You’ll also find thoughtful prompts to help open conversations when words feel hard to find, with the intention of helping couples feel more like a team again, not just co-parents managing logistics.
This is not a clinical or expert-led resource, however it’s grounded in lived experience, honesty, and a mum who values working on my marriage in the midst of kids. It’s a guide you can return to during hard seasons and good ones, using it at your own pace, in a way that suits your family.
Created with love, for tired parents who still want to choose each other.
