Connected
Revive connections: One task at a time

"My biggest struggle with chores in our relationship is the unequal division of labor. My husband and I both work full-time, but it feels like I'm doing most of the household tasks. It's frustrating because I end up feeling like a maid rather than a partner."

"Communication is a real issue for us. We have different expectations when it comes to cleanliness, and it's challenging to discuss without it turning into an argument. It often feels like we're not on the same page, which makes chores even more of a headache."

"Time constraints are a major struggle. Both my partner and I have demanding jobs, and finding the energy to do chores after a long day is tough. It's tough to find a balance between work, social life, and chores."

"Our struggle is appreciation. We both do our fair share of chores, but it sometimes feels like we take each other for granted. We forget to thank each other for the little things we do, and it can make us feel undervalued."
The problem
At the beginning, relationships kick off with this amazing feeling - love is blooming, and you can practically feel the excitement. As time goes by, relationships change and grow, and suddenly there's this extra responsibility of keeping up with household chores. And as the list of things to do gets longer, the romantic part kind of fades away. Here is where the 'Connected' app steps in: Connected gets rid of that never-ending to-do list from your everyday talks. Plus, it helps you coordinate your schedules and shopping lists in a way that's really enjoyable. So, when you come back home, you can focus on having more meaningful conversations with your life partner.

Challenges

He often forgets important school events and struggles to keep track of grocery lists and other household responsibilities. This has led to tension in his relationship with his partner, Sarah, who feels overwhelmed by handling most of the household duties and childcare on her own.
​
Goals
Alex's primary goal is to improve his time management and organizational skills. He wants to be a more present and supportive partner and father by effectively coordinating schedules and sharing household responsibilities.
