Scenario

When couples struggle to preserve family knowledge together

My partner and I are trying to preserve her grandmother's traditional cooking methods before we lose them, but every time we cook together it becomes this tense thing where I ask too many questions and she gets frustrated that she doesn't know the 'why' behind what her grandmother taught her, just the movements and timing.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The urgency of preserving disappearing knowledge creates pressure that interferes with the natural transmission process between intimate partners.
