PSP Supporting Healthy Relationships @ 7:00pm


Couples

From the early transition to parenthood to managing teens and beyond, parents raising children together wear many hats: parent, mother, father, co-parent, protector, employee, nourisher, teacher, model, etc. Making space for relationship maintenance (let alone growth) tends to fall to the wayside amongst parenting trials and tribulations. We put our relationship second to sleep training, potty training, preschool decisions, middle school, college.  If we  don’t make space for connection, the relationship suffers. Kids model their relationships on what they see--a healthy relationship between you and your partner will help them in their future relationships.  

During this workshop, you’ll learn about the common challenges that couples face as parents, and best ways to navigate them, including:
  • Understanding how we were parented impacts our parenting choices.
  • Creating a sound relationship house
  • (Re-) Establishing a friendship foundation in order to prioritize your relationship
  • Building your emotional bank account
  • Enhancing your relationship toolkit with resources (bids, love styles, building love maps, rituals of connection, etc)
  • Recognizing warning signs and getting back on track
  • Developing concrete skills for navigating conflict together
  • Having more FUN (including sex)

You will receive a unique Zoom Link the day before the event. This workshop will be recorded. Please register to receive the video link.
