As parents, we can get so caught up in the day-to-day tasks of caring for our kids, managing the household, and juggling work responsibilities, that we forget about our partner. We don't think or don't have time to think about how to truly connect and enjoy spending time together.

On the surface, you want more help around the house and to share more of the mental load because you have too much on your plate. And if you could get some help, you could have the space and capacity for more. More connection, more romance, more conversations, more being partners, and less being roommates. So yes, it is about who takes out the trash, who goes to the grocery store, and who picks up and drops off at daycare. But it's also about so much more than that.

If you have been thinking about how to stop resenting and start loving your partner too, you're not alone. What if you started evaluating all of the other things that you do in a day? You can decide that asking for help and delegating is the fastest way to get what you ultimately want - more time and space in your days.
