In this episode, we spoke with Suzie Booth, a counsellor, psychotherapist, and couples therapist specialising in relationships and the transition into parenthood.

We explore why the couple relationship is often overlooked after having a baby, and how modern pressures, including social media, can impact connection. Suzie shares practical advice on how couples can stay connected during early parenthood, from communication and emotional needs to navigating common challenges like resentment and the “roommate phase.”

We also discuss early warning signs of disconnection, when therapy might help, and what breakup counseling looks like.

This conversation is honest, practical, and reassuring for anyone navigating relationships alongside parenthood.
