It is one of the most common complaints I hear in my coaching practice, particularly from women: "I feel like I’m running the entire house by myself. I don't feel like a partner anymore, I feel like a mother to my husband." Despite living in modern times, society still largely pushes domestic chores into the woman’s domain. Let's be completely raw and real about this: it is exhausting. You both work, you both run the house, and maybe you are both parents.

In my coaching practice, I often talk about creating intentional containers for connection. But recently, my husband Darren and I decided to take things a step further. We were approached to share a raw, unfiltered look into our intimate life, so we set ourselves a challenge: could we have sex every single day for seven days straight? Usually, as busy parents juggling work, yoga classes, and family life, we have sex about three times a week.
