"To save your marriage, you have to leave the kids at home."

We’ve all heard that advice. We are told we need to book a week in Paris—just the two of us—to remember who we are. But what if you aren't ready for that? Or honestly... what if you don't want to?

In this episode, I challenge the idea that you have to leave your baby behind to find romance.

I’m getting honest about the transition from "Lovers" to "Logistics Managers" and sharing exactly how my husband and I keep the spark alive, even when there is a car seat in the rental car and a crib in the hotel room.

In this episode, I share:

* The "Lunch is the New Dinner" Rule: Why 8 PM dates set parents up for failure, and how to master the "Stroller Date" instead.

* My #1 Travel Hack for Parents: Why I never book a standard room if I want a connection with my husband (The "Balcony Upgrade").

* The "Transition" Ritual: The 30-second physical trigger I use to switch my brain from "Mom Mode" to "Wife Mode."

* The 60-Second Hug: A simple tool to sync your nervous systems when you feel like ships passing in the night.

If you love your baby but miss your partner, this episode is your permission slip to bring the "Third Wheel" along for the ride.
