Coaching

Some couples can find household parity alone, but like everything in life, most people need a little help.

Enter a coach! My process is simple:

  1. I listen. I listen to you together, and I listen to you separately. I want to understand your life, your challenges, your strengths, and your questions.

  2. I help you to better understand the underlying gender norms affecting your relationship. What expectations and assumptions did you bring to your relationship? We state these out loud, and talk through them in a judgement-free space.

  3. Together we explore a variety of tools and actions that you can take to bring you closer to parity, and you choose the one(s) that you think will work best for you.

Please know I am not anti-man. I am not here to vilify anyone, nor jump to conclusions based on gender stereotypes. Listen to one of my podcasts to get a feel for my approach and my style. I think you’ll see that I work hard to create judgement-free spaces, that I am an empathetic listener, and that I focus my attention on practical actions and behaviors.

Equity feels different for every couple! I’ll work to help you figure out what equity feels like for you—and help you get there.

Ideally, couples will come together. But if you are an individual and your partner is not interested in joining, but YOU need to process gender roles in your home, there are still things we can do! You may not have as many tools & approaches to pull from, but you still have options—and I’d love to work with you.
