If you're gridlocked on an issue in your marriage, big or small, you need to identify the dreams that aren't being met.

Whenever the dream or hope or aspiration for the relationship is ignored, problems arise. But when those dreams are revealed and understood and respected, it creates space for the relationship to become more meaningful than the problem.

Become a dream detective. Ask open-ended questions like "What does this mean for you" and "Is there a story behind your position on this issue?"

Acknowledging and respecting each other’s deepest, most personal hopes and dreams is the key to enriching your marriage.

Question: What is one of your partner's dreams?

Is it Time to Clean your Heat Pump Filters?

Mickey from Busy Bees Cleaning Wellington

TO BE HONEST WE PROBABLY DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.

Busy Bees do come across many heat pumps that have not had filters cleaned regularly. This may be due to the fact they are hard to reach, you don’t see the filter so we simply do not remember to check it.
