EP72 How To Renovate Without A Divorce
Hi my lovely renovators!
Today, we're diving into something I don’t talk about often but is absolutely crucial—how to survive a renovation with your relationship intact. It’s a little tongue-in-cheek, sure, but the emotional strain of renovating with a partner is very real, and after years of navigating this both personally and professionally, I’ve got a lot to say.
From design and budget disagreements to decision fatigue, today I’m sharing some strategies I use to help couples make it through the chaos—still liking each other at the end.
Listen solo or together, and let’s set your renovation (and relationship) up for success.
What You'll Learn:
- Why design disagreements don’t mean relationship doom
- How to create a shared renovation vision that reflects both your personalities
- Avoiding “renovation resentment” and the mental load imbalance
- Smart strategies for making design compromises (without giving in completely!)
- How to emotionally prepare for what’s coming—dust, delays, and all
Resources Mentioned:
