  • “....right on TARGET for what we were looking for!”

  • "Thanks for the very informative session. I learned new 'tools' I can use to be a better communicator and partner."

  • “ A guide map for communication, how to strengthen and love and address conflicts/past.”

  • "The Love Maps and the antidotes to The Four Horsemen will be very helpful."

  • "The content was great, but the personal examples definitely made it relatable."

  • "Overall, this is a 5 out of 5 stars! Thanks!"

  • "I enjoyed experiencing this seminar with couples in all stages of life."

  • "A highlight for me was learning about conflict resolution in a safe, fair, and supportive way."

  • (I'm now) "...able to identify what the argument is really about, and identify how the other is processing things."

  • "This has been a roadmap to get our relationship back on track."

  • "My eyes have been opened more fully to the perpetual vs. solvable problems in any relationship."

  • “Giving language to conflict.  Very helpful when navigating arguments.”

  • "I feel less doomed about our conflict; it's a validation that although we need help resolving it, we are not broken because we have it."

  • “The methodical approach to relationships. What helped me the most was the scientific reasoning and physiological explanations of how we go through the different emotions.”

  • “Knowing and seeing all couples have similar issues AND there are ways to reverse bad patterns….HOPE!”

  • “Finding the words to verbalize some feelings/views that I had…up until this session, I had not been able to articulate.”

  • “The most valuable (tool)  was how to repair….the language to repair.”

  • “Hearing what is normal….what we are going through is not a deal breaker.”

  • "The best marriage seminar we've attended!"

  • “....how to BETTER recognize things within myself and the antidotes to overcome them.”

  • “....(We valued) the time and opportunity to deliberately focus on our marriage for a weekend.”

  • “I found all of the information given valuable.  Having the resources and tools to fall back on and practice together seems priceless to me.”

  • (I valued the terms) “help me understand” and “protecting each other”

  • “It’s great to have a common language to set the table for future healthy conversations.”

  • “It’s valuable to be reminded that marriage is a commitment that takes effort. Everyone deals with challenges and being reminded of that and working through strategies to improve is very valuable.”

  • “Remembering it’s not about me…..but WE!”
