Listen to each other as you thoughtfully discuss all that it takes to run a home.

  1. Consider tone, brevity, and word choice as you share information and individual perspectives.
  2. Explore a new way to collaboratively work together as a team to create more efficiency and fairness in your domestic ecosystem.
  3. Value each other’s time equally.
  4. Keep phones off the table and focus on each other.

Daily Grind - 1st tab - There 30 Daily Grinds cards ☕. Review and mark those that are essential to your home. The fewer cards the better!

Nonnegotiable - 2nd tab - Review the remaining task cards one by one in all five categories and determine which are essential to your entire family. Perhaps not time sensitive but you and your partner agree they must get done.

You don’t have to do it all. Zero in on the cards that are important and throw out the cards that don’t serve you.

Valued by both Partners - If a card has been left out because it is not essential to the functioning of your home, but both of you value having them in your life; regard this step as an important value-setting exercise where you thoughtfully discuss the aspects of domestic life that are meaningful to your family and assign value.

Valued by One Partner - The hours of my life are as valuable as yours. Determine which are valuable to one partner. It doesn’t matter who at this stage.
