Scenario

When couples can't agree on major life changes after children leave

My husband wants to downsize immediately now that our daughter is at college, but I'm not ready to let go of the house where we raised her, and we're having the same fight every few weeks where he calls me sentimental and I call him cold. We both know this house is too big for us now but we can't seem to find a way through the decision that honors what we each need.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Partners discover they process letting go at fundamentally different speeds, creating conflict around decisions that require them to move forward together.
