In this episode I share when my partner and I went to couples counselling after the birth of our first child. From my post-partum anxiety I was experiencing resentment and contempt and didn’t want this to be the theme of our relationship. 

In this episode I cover:


  •  04:05 Why I hated admitting they needed help
  •  06:12 Why everything wasn’t all my partners fault (much as I wanted it to be)
  •  08:11 Why stress was the root of all our challenges
  • 14:45 And why couples counselling wasn’t going to bring our sex life back after kids


Whether you are in the trenches of early baby and toddler hood or seasoned parents, this episode is a must listen.
