Future alignment often fails because couples discuss goals without discussing timelines and tradeoffs.

Ask these first

  • What matters most in the next 12 months?
  • What does stability mean for each of us?
  • What risk are we willing to take together?

Clarify constraints

  • What is non-negotiable for you?
  • What is flexible if needed?
  • What resources do we need to reach our goal?

Turn each answer into one monthly checkpoint.
