Communication is key to a good marriage. However, many couples struggle in this area. Why? We have trouble with conflict, we often don’t know how to express our ideas, or maybe we just don’t know what to talk about. Our weekly meeting agenda helps you talk about the things that matter in your family. It encourages you to discuss successes, goals, to-dos, weekly calendar/schedules and even meal planning! By meeting consistently over time, you’ll find that you and your spouse are better aligned, communicating better, and looking forward to this time together.
Change can be difficult, I get it. However, if something provides value and eliminates conflict- it is well worth the effort to learn a new thing. In addition to helping you and your spouse grow personally, it creates unity by encouraging you to plan and solve issues together.
PRO TIP: Tell your spouse how much they (and your marriage) mean to you. Then, convey how important their perspective and ideas are in making it all succeed. Lastly, give PlanWise a try!
100%
Conflict is inevitable- if you’re married, you know this to be true. How do we address and resolve conflict? Firstly, be proactive and patient! Talk through issues before they become bigger problems, work together to find a solution. Your spouse can offer insights and ideas that are extremely valuable. The more you practice the art of conflict resolution, the better you’ll get at it. In the meantime, love your spouse, be patient and forgiving- and try PlanWise!

Life is going to happen regardless of whether you plan for it or not. But, I promise you- without good planning, you’re just inviting failure, conflict, and frustration into your marriage. Who wants that? You want to be successful, you want to find meaning, you want a marriage that is healthy and thriving. A little planning helps achieve all of that. PlanWise was built to help couples do this very thing and make it as easy as possible. Give it a try– we know you’ll love it!
Hi! We are Rob and Aimee and we’ve been married for over 25 years. We have 5 kids and lead VERY busy lives- lives that often feel chaotic, messy, and out-of-control. Feel familiar?
In the beginning, we simply created PlanWise as a way to help our marriage and put all our planning in one place. In the years that followed, we created a simple agenda, found ways to improve our discussions, and document our progress.
As our system found success for us, we started telling a few people about it. The response was pretty consistent: “How does it work?”, “I can’t believe I’ve never thought of that!”, “Can you send me your process?”, “Can you tell us how we can do what you’re doing?”, “How do we start?”
We realized immediately that there was a big need for better communication in marriage. Shocking, right? We wanted to help people, so we put a goal in place to make PlanWise accessible for anyone who could benefit from it. A few years later we had a product ready to help couples just like you.

We’d be honored if you gave it a try. Happy planning!
