English term or phrase: get back on track with each other
"It’s been hard for us to kind of get back on track with each other after his motorcycle crash."
Son mari fait des courses de motos, ce qui ne lui plait pas du tout. Et il a fini par avoir un accident sur un circuit.
Comment pourrait-on traduire "get back on track with each other" ?
