Robin and her husband, Alex, sat across the room from one another in the early minutes of their third marriage counseling session. Alex is a first-year business litigation partner at a firm downtown and really starting to hit his career stride. Robin was a financial analyst until they had their first child, and they have just had their second. By mutual agreement, she stays at home as a full-time mother.
