Discover the Real Work of Relationships

We all know that relationships take work, but few of us

know what that work is.

 

This is your opportunity to learn what it is and how to do it. 
 

Our Essential Skills for Cultivating Relationship Success Bootcamp attendees will learn the minute-to-minute practices to:

​Shift out of the automatic, raw, knee-jerk reactions that make conflicts impossible to navigate.

 

Recognize why our attempts to connect and communicate with the people we love often drive us further apart.

 

Learn how to maintain the healthy self-esteem needed to develop boundaries and set the limits that allow us to be protected and connected in our relationships.

 

Learn how to respond respectfully and lovingly, share their feelings, and advocate for their wants and needs.

 

Develop strategies for cherishing and appreciating the people they love.

“I have found that most couples really want a relationship that works for both people and they have no idea how to make that happen. Once they learn that implementing a set of learned skills can achieve their goal, the majority of couples are willing to do things differently. They become empowered to change!”
