About

Description

Pairship is centred around the relationship of a couple:

that they are both responsible for the relationship they are in
and for the course that their relation "ship" will take

The name

The name comes from:

"pair"
- two people
and "ship"
- as of boat or
- of relation "ship".

Value

Bringing value

Pairship brings value to couples, for those:

who want to stay together
- but are fighting each other,
who are missing
- the "we" feeling,
who have the feeling that the relationship
- is boring,
- is stale,
that the other
- is doing "their thing",
who are unsatisfied
- with the status quo.
where one is thinking
- of leaving.

Playful

Metaphor of a ship travelling on the high sees
Everything is put on the map.
Phases of:
- excite - communicate,
- discovery - needs, wishes,
- transform - behaviour,
- boosters - long term growth.
