OUR STORY
Sailu was 20 years old when she walked into her friend’s apartment, only to see his roommate Ravi hanging around. That night, they spent 8 hours straight talking, watching TV & just hanging out.
That night turned into 2 more that week, then planning for the future during their senior year of college.
2014 : A girl met a boy
2014 - 2016 : The past caught up with them
Like with every relationship, the past started catching up.
The different ways they grew up coupled with years of various insecurities, pressures from South Asian culture on who to be, and a lack of being taught how to be in a relationship all led to a point where they struggled to connect.
They went to friends, but all they really heard was to leave the other person because they were young, what do they have to lose…they could easily find someone else.
That was not an option for them. They both saw something in the other & knew that no matter what, this was who they wanted to spend their life with.
So, they needed to figure out a better solution.
2016 - Now : When love + skill combine
Coming from a business background, they realized when they didn’t know something at work, they drilled down on building skills.
So why not test this at home?
They both started using relevant business / leadership skills used at work with each other.
It worked miracles.
They were able to use Emotional Intelligence to work on themselves & how they interacted with each other.
They used pay negotiation tactics during difficult conversations, psychological safety to ensure they could open up to the other, and so many more!
Why we do what we do:
None of us are taught how to love. We watch movies, TV shows, then go out into the world & hope that we find someone to share our lives with.
We knew that there had to be more than luck when it came to finding your partner.
We’ve spent the last few years of our relationship bringing research from all different domains into our relationship to continuously improve it. And now, we want to share it with you!
Follow our journey.
