40 days · 10 minutes a day · read together

Nobody’s engine dies from one bad day.

It dies quietly, over months, for want of a litre of oil that cost almost nothing. Marriages go the same way — not in the shouting, in the small unsaid things.

This is not counselling and it is not a course. It is a ten-minute daily check, done out loud with your wife or your husband, for forty days.

Start with Day 1 — free
Days 1–3 free. $30 for the full journey.

What forty days actually looks like

One Refuel a day. You cannot skip ahead and you cannot binge it — the next day opens tomorrow. That is the point.

Days 1–10
Hearing each other

Communication, appreciation, unforgiveness, money, intimacy, in-laws, anger, trust.

Days 11–25
The harder rooms

Loneliness inside marriage, comparison, phones, sending money home, sex without bargaining, small lies.

Days 26–40
Building the habit

Repair, temptation, respect in public, what our children will copy, saying the vows again, continuing.

Who wrote it

Tarisai & Nyasha Mutasa

Nineteen years married, two of them bad. They have spent the last eleven sitting with couples in Harare and Bulawayo — in church halls, in living rooms, and twice in a car park at midnight.

“Almost nobody came to us with a crisis they could not have seen coming. They came with three years of not checking.”

If you were sent this link

Somebody in your house thinks something is worth ten minutes. That is all this is asking for. Not a retreat, not a weekend, not a stranger’s office.

There is no group. Nobody reads your answers. There is nothing to write down and nothing to hand in. You read a page, you ask each other one question, you go to bed.

Read Day 1 tonight. If it is not worth the ten minutes, you have lost ten minutes.

One price, then it is yours

Days 1–3 are free. No subscription that quietly renews.
