Scenario

When couples lose themselves in the pursuit of shared dreams

My wife and I have been trying to conceive for three years and the process has taken over our entire relationship in ways that feel toxic but we can't seem to step back without giving up on what we want most. Every month is a cycle of hope and devastation that we're living through together but also completely alone.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A shared goal has become a compulsive pattern that consumes the very relationship it was meant to serve.
