Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage


Lao Tzu

Building strong parental partnerships

Working together

Working together

As you transition into parenthood, you are plunged into an unknown landscape with no clear map and often conflicting guidance or expectations about how to navigate it. 


Research shows that within three years after the birth of a baby, approximately two thirds of couples will experience a significant drop in relationship quality and a dramatic increase in conflict and hostility. 


Taking time to connect as couples before you become parents is a springboard for strengthening the foundations of your relationship and navigating the early years of parenthood.

Expectant parent workshop

Additional Information

This workshop is designed for expectant and new parents to help prioritise conversations that build a strong foundation for your transition to parenthood.

It is one that brings so much joy while also testing a relationship in many new ways.


This is your opportunity to start positively, supportive and connected. To have the confidence to open conversations that will help you when you’re tired and overwhelmed and align on the important things now before you need to start making decisions that will impact the family. 


What to expect

  • Connect with other expectant parents 
  • Half day in person or three 90-minute virtual sessions

What you'll get 

  • Clarity on how to be a supportive and strong parenting partnership
  • Alignment on important topics you might not have known you needed to discuss 
  • Tools to help navigate the early years of parenthood as a stronger couple 

How do we do this?!

If you're feeling increasingly disconnected from your partner now you're parents, this relationship coaching programme is for you. Maybe you're arguing more, or you're feeling increasingly misunderstood. Perhaps you're just not talking to each other any more, or feeling like you're not being heard. 


Imagine if your conversations had more affection than criticism. Where you could enjoy more of your time together, as a family. Where you are supporting each others dreams - and the daily grind. 


Imagine how it would feel to be a true partnership. In it together. 


Join the one-month virtual programme to reconnect and strengthen your partnership, and feel better equipped to tackle parenting as a dual-career couple. 


What to expect:

  • Connection with couples navigating the same challenges 
  • Four 90-minute evening zoom group couples coaching sessions 
  • Reflection exercises to practice as a couple 


What you'll get:

  • Clarity on how to be dual-career parents 
  • Alignment on your family values and what's important to you now 
  • Confidence to relinquish control and ask for support 
  • Tools to replace frustration with friendship
