It takes 15 minutes a day to start finding your way back.Most relationship advice for parents assumes you have time and energy you don't have. 'Plan a weekly date night.' 'Take a weekend away.' 'Have deep conversations every evening.' Great advice, if you have a babysitter, a budget, and energy left at the end of the day.Still Us is built on a research-backed premise: small, frequent moments of genuine connection do more for a relationship than occasional grand gestures.
