When couples transform dream trips into pressure-filled performances

My husband and I booked this amazing trip to Japan that we've been planning for years, but now that it's happening we're both so anxious about doing it 'right' and not wasting the opportunity that we've lost any sense of excitement or playfulness about it. We've turned our dream destination into a performance pressure situation and I can feel us both dreading something we should be thrilled about.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The weight of expectation and fear of squandering opportunity has replaced anticipation and joy with anxiety and obligation.
