The Marriage Shutdown Checklist
Children add real, systemic stress to a marriage. This checklist won't tell you your relationship is broken. It will help you see clearly what's actually happening in it, and what to do next.
I created this checklist because it's what I needed when I was struggling in my marriage after kids.
Marriage Shutdown is the learned helplessness loop couples fall into after kids because of the systemic stress that is placed on marriages, and no one teaches you how to deal with it.
This checklist will help you get clarity on what's keeping you stuck in your marriage and learn the first steps to rebuilding the love and care that might be missing, even if that feels impossible right now.
The questions are simple, but they're designed to help you reflect honestly on your relationship so you can intervene in the right way with the right tools. So be as honest as you can.
