Recent Thoughts from Our Participants

“It was excellent to have so much therapeutic support available so we didn’t just end up in a fight.”

-2025 Participant

“We learned there is hope, reason for optimism. The highlight was admitting to my deepest fears, and not being rejected, critiqued, ridiculed. My wife really knows me and loves me, just the way I am. It was helpful to hear Kim and Dennis provide examples from their own relationship”.

-2024 Participant

“The highlight of this weekend was me actually discovering how I felt and how my past experiences were shaping my interactions with my spouse. I want to have more of me discovering my emotions, reasons, and motivations while I’m sharing with my wife. Delving deeper into my locked away emotions and experiences to contribute more.”

-2024 Participant

“Working with both Kim and Dennis was transformational.”

-2024 Participant

“I learned how to apply real empathy to responding to my partner’s hurts, instead of trying to make those hurts go away. I learned that I can respond empathetically to the impact of my actions even if the intent was good and the impact is not my fault. I tuned in more to the underlying causes of what I fear in our relationship.”
-2024 Participant

“I very much enjoyed the dynamic between Kim and Dennis. It provided insights and inspiration.”

Resolve To Be Intentional Pursuing your Partner

“People who are lonely… are less happy, their health declines earlier in mid-life, their brain functioning declines sooner, and they live shorter lives,” says Harvard researcher Robert Waldinger, based on an 85-year study.
