When couples discover their devices are sharing personal data

My partner and I both work from home and use the same wifi network for everything and now we're seeing each other's targeted ads on social media and realizing how much our devices are sharing data between us without our consent. We keep saying we should figure out how to separate our digital lives but we don't even know where to start and it feels overwhelming to untangle everything.
