  "account": "Psychologist and couples therapist Gesche Nietfeld discusses the challenges couples face when one partner considers a career change. She notes that while the initial desire for change is personal, it becomes a joint decision when it affects shared resources, income, or childcare. Nietfeld advises couples to consider not only the opportunities of a career change but also the costs and risks, and to have an open conversation about their values, boundaries, and concerns. She suggests that couples can navigate these decisions by practically exploring how their daily lives will change and by regularly reviewing the impact of the decision.",
