Totally agree and feel the same way. Running a business is an emotional roller coaster. I stress from my business a lot to and I can be a wreck sometimes. The stress puts a wear on my relationship with my girlfriend, and in fact we do couples therapy to work through some of the times when I am in a high stress mode. If I had a cofounder, I'd imagine the same stresses would put a strain on the relationship and couples therapy would benefit us all the same.
People are really negative about therapy, but it's actually a really powerful tool for helping with all kinds of issues every human deals with. Ignore those comments already suggesting this is a weird thing, couples therapy for cofounders is a brilliant idea.

Should have been submitted to r/cringe. Seriously, can a PR puff-piece try to be more hip?

I mean to say I am happy they are putting an emphasis on each others emotions or relationship or something close to it.
I myself worry and get sad when the business/company seems to be ignoring emotions and relationships.
This was me sharing my emotions. I hope that is appropriate and useful and not derailing the conversation.
