About Us – NYC Trailing Spouse

Finding Your Own Path in the City That Never Sleeps

Welcome to NYC Trailing Spouse, a community created for partners and spouses who’ve relocated to New York City for love, family, or opportunity — and are now navigating the city’s energy, ambition, and chaos while finding their own identity and purpose.

We know that moving to New York as a trailing spouse can feel both exhilarating and overwhelming. Whether you came here from across the country or across the world, it’s a transition that blends excitement with uncertainty. Your partner might have arrived with a clear professional path, but for you, the journey might feel more undefined. NYC Trailing Spouse exists to help you find meaning, connection, and joy in this vibrant, ever-changing city — on your own terms.
