In this blog, we share why we believe PRIORITISTING TIME away together, without the kids, is actually one of the best gifts you can give THEM, and yourselves.
In the hustle and bustle of modern life, where work deadlines, kids' schedules, and the endless to-do lists demand your energy, it’s easy for your relationship to fall to the bottom of your priorities. You might catch glimpses of the love and connection you once shared—a laugh here, and a quickie here & there—but they’re often fleeting as the chaos of daily life pulls you apart.
The kids seem to interrupt whenever you're having an important conversation, and as much as you love them; you'd just like to be able to have time together without them climbing all over you. Sound familiar?
When you think back to the early days of your relationship, chances are there was more space for spontaneity, joy, and closeness. That spark, that magic, often gets buried under the weight of responsibilities and routines. But here’s the truth: relationships don’t thrive on autopilot. In fact, if left to 'hoping' that things will slow down; your relationship will naturally distance. You'll be living as team mates, tagging between the kids, feeling frustrated that you don't have space to connect, yet when those windows do open, find yourselves having "meetings" or spending an evening watching an "ok" but ultimately unsatisfying movie or tv series together rather than REALLY being present with one another & moving towards your bigger dreams & vision for not just your life or business goals, but your relationship. Thriving relationship require intention, attention, and yes, time.
Why QUALITY Time Together Matters
Taking intentional time for your relationship isn’t selfish; it’s essential. A thriving partnership is the foundation of a happy, balanced life, and when you nurture your connection, it benefits not only you but everyone around you—your kids, your friends, even your work.
Think of your relationship as a garden. Without regular care—watering, pruning, planting—it begins to wither. Taking time out together is like giving your garden the sunshine and nourishment it needs to bloom again. It’s a chance to step back from the daily grind, to reconnect with yourselves and each other, and to remember why you fell in love in the first place.
The Power of Stepping Away
Stepping out of your usual environment gives you perspective. It’s like hitting the reset button on your relationship, allowing you to shed the stress and rediscover the joy of simply being together. Whether it’s through shared experiences, quiet moments, or guided practices, taking time away can create a deeper bond and reignite your passion.
