i don't think it's possible to maintain a spark per-se when raising kids because it's monotonous by default. if you've been with someone a decade, you're not going to elicit a wild spark, it shifts to a different thing.
i think probably the most realistic thing is to do something like a date night (maybe a spontaneous one) and just have time doing simple things, without the kids. send them
to grandma, then go get a coffee etc. then you can just interact as people, not parents.
keeping it simple. now, if you were rich af, then it might be easier because you could just spend your time doing fulfilling things and doing all kinds of experiences, without the grind of work and worrying about bills etc
monotonous by default
Oh my goodness, you are my kind of guy.
How has your career pivoting been going since last year?
reply
I haven't really done a pivot as such yet, still doing what I was doing, looking for clients, but trying to research things I could also do that can work remotely and not get outsourced OR replaced by GPT. I've found some courses that supposedly offer help with employment placement, but they cost like 8 grand.
I've ordered a cheap 3d printer so will learn about that , I don't know it it's anything i could make money from, seems like it will maybe be a fun hobby though.
honestly, if i was in the UK, i would find some apprenticeship and become a heat pump engineer or something, since the gov is shoving them down everyone's throat lol
