My partner has always taken a step back to support me. In one of our biggest decisions it was my turn to support him and be there for him. I felt that.
Valentine Caporale
It can be difficult to accept not achieving the same successes as one’s partner, but at the end of the day, we are on the same team and support the same cause.
Jérémy Desplanches
At the RealTalk in Lausanne, hosted by Margaux Habert, Valentine and Jérémy talked about what they take into account when making major decisions. How do they discuss their next life steps with their partners? Which decisions were the most difficult? When do they compromise?
We do so many different things, but every Sunday, we come together for family time and to plan ahead. Organization is essential to manage everything.
Valentine Caporale
It is important to get started. Take the steps one by one, work as a team, delegate, trust, take the lead or step aside. And move forward little by little.
