One of the things I’m hoping to do with The On Purpose Marriage is help couples deal with problems BEFORE they become a problem. Part of an On Purpose Marriage means looking at the calendar and asking each other, “Is there something we fight about every year? Is there a way to avoid certain topics becoming a ‘thing’ every. single. time. they come up?”
The holidays.
They are coming.
And so is that fight about Thanksgiving/Christmas/who to invite to dinner/where to stay when you go to Memphis/whether your mom should have used that tone with your spouse.
Let’s deal with it today so that y’all can actually enjoy the holidays this year, ok?
Great.
We’re doing an online webinar thing on Thursday, November 12th at 9pm CST. We are going to help you do 2 things:
- Have healthy and constructive conversations about what to do/who to see/how to deal with your father-in-law’s obsession with political puns.
- Come up with a game plan so that you two stay on the same team instead of turning into sworn enemies by the time New Year’s rolls around.
Marie! We need this! How do we sign up? How much does it cost?
I want you to have some financial skin in the game. In order to get in on this Holiday + In-law goodness you’re gonna have to go over to Technology Access Center of Nashville and donate $50 to their organization (you can use this link to go straight to the donation page).
Technology Access Center does the little talked about work of re-engineering technology so that it works better for those with disabilities and functional limitations. The mission of the corporation’s board and staff members is to promote the independence and participation of individuals of all ages with disabilities in school, work, play and everyday activities through their use of assistive technology.
They recently adapted battery operated toys to provide access to kids with disabilities through special switches. So cool, right?
Once you donate $50 to TAC forward a copy of your receipt/screenshot of your donation to marie.mckinney@gmail.com. I’ll add your email address to the list and you’ll get a link to the webinar. Receipts/screenshots will need to be submitted by November 11th.
We’re going to record the webinar so that you can have it to watch at your own time/pace so don’t worry about ‘missing’ it, but be warned that there are no refunds.
