NOTE

Discuss Values to Navigate Differences

Couples must engage in discussions about their values, as these can be pivotal in navigating challenges within a relationship. Values are not necessarily permanent; they can evolve over time and influence expectations of the partnership. The way couples react to significant life issues, such as infertility, often reveals deeper philosophical questions about agency, fate, and individual beliefs. In situations where one partner leans towards scientific intervention while the other prioritizes acceptance of natural outcomes, deeper values and beliefs are at play. It is essential for couples to articulate and understand these underlying philosophical differences rather than merely addressing logistical concerns.
