When couples struggle to protect shared time despite wanting the same thing

My partner and I both want to live more slowly but we keep agreeing to things that speed us up - dinner plans, weekend commitments, work projects - and then we're frustrated with each other for saying yes when we both wanted space. We can't seem to protect the time we say we value together.

What we've seen

Two people can share the same values about time yet remain trapped in patterns that betray those values.
