12 monthly check ups: <p>Today in episode 12 of Couple Things with Shawn and Andrew, we walk you through what we do each month with each other - check ups. We think it's really important for a relationship to constantly be checking up and providing a safe space for each other to speak about what they did well that month, and what you think they could work on. We even give you an example of what one of our monthly check ups looks like. Now before you go shooting down this idea, we challenge you guys to just give it a try for one month. See if it has an affect on your relationship. We'd love to hear what you guys think of it. </p><p>If you haven't yet, please rate and subscribe to the show to hear more!
