In simplistic terms, anyone that has or desires to have a thriving, healthy relationship.

Singles: You may not be in a relationship currently but want to learn successful skills to be prepared to start any relationship on the right path.

New relationships: You want to create a successful relationship with your partner and avoid possible pitfalls and problems by building a firm foundation.

Relationship Fix: You may have been together for years and are now experiencing problems and need help to repair and prevent a relationship failure. Learning and practicing new skills that work can help relationships rebuild.   

Good relationships: You may have a good relationship but want to continue growing and working towards creating a great one. Renewing the skills and principles of a great relationship regularly (even when you are an expert) keeps the relationship alive.

The sales pitch is yes, absolutely; however, the honest answer is maybe; it depends on you and your partner. 

Over the last twenty-plus years, we have found that if you apply the skills, techniques, and principles presented in this series and practice them daily, making them a part of your lifestyle, you will have a healthy relationship.  

If you only practice the skills for a short time or only on weekends, then it might not work. If what you’ve been doing doesn’t work well; then you have to stop doing it that way, start doing it the better way, and then stick to the better way. This series is the better way, but it only works if you apply it to your daily life.  It takes consistency and time to make real changes. 

In other words, this program gives you the tools to be successful and have a great relationship or marriage, but it’s up to you to put in the effort and be consistent to make it work.

A few couples discover that they should never have been together in the first place. Learning these skills allowed them to separate on good terms and move on.

We highly recommend this course even when you aren't in a relationship.

This course is suitable for anyone in a current relationship or who plans to have one in the future. Everyone will benefit from having the knowledge and skills for a healthy relationship.

If you develop these skills before you start a relationship, you will most likely be able to avoid the pitfalls and pain that so many go through.

A relationship doesn't have to be difficult, full of conflict, or pain.  Knowing how to have a healthy relationship gives you a great start.

How long it takes depends on you, your partner, how much time you spend practicing the skills, and how motivated and open you are to improving your relationship. Human behavior usually takes time to make positive lasting change; it is not a quick fix.

Some couples see positive results within a few days; others may take a few months. On average, positive changes will happen within 30 days. Of course, every individual and couple has different circumstances and challenges. The bottom line is it depends on how much effort you put into learning and applying the skills taught in the workshop.

To be a great piano player, you need to practice every day. You'll never be a professional if you only practice once a week. It is the same with a relationship; the more effort and practice you put in, the quicker you will see results.

The research shows that if one party in the relationship seeks help. Learns and applies better skills, the other party usually improves as well. In marriage counseling, we see that when one spouse starts therapy and makes positive changes, the other spouse gets interested and starts attending therapy also.

We highly suggest that if your partner doesn’t participate, you still do it to learn better skills and become a stronger individual and a positive example. At worst, you will learn how to have a successful relationship, and if, in the end, your partner refuses to make positive changes, you will be better prepared to accept your partner’s behavior or to move on.

The honest answer is maybe.  

We have found that most relationship problems can be solved by applying the concepts and skills presented in the workshop, thus avoiding the need for a therapist. 

If you still struggle to move forward after attending the workshop and applying the concepts and skills to your daily life, you may need a therapist to help you.

Sometimes, trauma from the past keeps us stuck in moving forward. Some couples need individual therapy before couples treatment can be effective. Every individual and couple is different. 

When there are abuse and/or substance use issues, you may need a therapist to help. In general, abuse and substance use issues need to be addressed before any real positive changes can happen in a relationship. A couple can work on both simultaneously, but it greatly depends on the intensity and desire for change. If there are any potential safety issues, seek a professional to assist.

Everyone needs additional help at some time. It is nothing to be ashamed of. The strongest people are willing to get help from experts when needed. The most successful people in the world got there by finding help along the way and learning new skills that work better than the old ones.

This program provides concrete principles, skills, and techniques that work long-term when applied. There are no fluff or feel-good exercises to fill up time, just solid useable information that works for every couple that makes it a part of their relationship.  

Most relationship “experts” or “coaches” have no training or professional experience in human behavior and relationships. Instead, they are based on personal experience and often include manipulation techniques and “feel good” exercises rather than solid principles and skills that work long-term.

Some of their information may be good, but it is also mixed with things that can help destroy your relationship. Many of our clients came to us after trying these popular relationship programs and seminars; they reported that these programs caused more damage to their relationship; some ended in divorce because of bad advice. 

Dr. Roberts designed our program based on years of experience as a therapist and solid research. He has over 25 years of experience providing relationship/marriage therapy and has conducted thousands of workshops for couples, businesses, and government agencies. In addition, he has advanced training in relationships and communication and is professionally licensed.

We will note that there are a few good programs out there based on solid techniques, skills, and research created by licensed professional experts. But, unfortunately, most are not. 

After years of providing therapy and workshops to couples, the core reasons relationships have problems and fail became clear. Problems like communication issues, infidelity, lying, resentments, abuse, trust issues, intimacy, stress, money, etc., are all symptoms of a more significant problem. Unfortunately, most programs and therapists focus on the symptoms rather than the real problem.

The underlying problem is that couples were never taught successful relationship skills and techniques built on a firm foundation of principles and skills. If you were never taught successful, healthy relationship skills, you most likely will have relationship problems.

Clients and colleagues have pushed us to create this workshop series; we see the value in couples learning how to prevent problems and live their relationships on purpose.

Relationship issues can be prevented and solved when the concepts and skills from the workshop are applied to their lives.  

This program is based on solid, time-tested core principles and skills that are true and work when applied. Whether you are religious or not, these skills are based on how to create a healthy relationship or marriage. No matter what kind of couple you are or what type of relationship you are in, these concepts are true and work when applied.  

While this program is not specific to any religion or spiritual practice, it does not violate or contradict any religious teachings.  

The actual cost of this program varies depending on the sponsors and the location of the workshop ($150 - $800). However, this investment in your relationship is priceless compared to the alternative.

Couples Therapy typically costs $200 - $600 a session; it usually takes 4-6 sessions to start making real progress. Most couples attend couples therapy for 6+ months. You’ll have to arrange your schedule and drive to an office with a scheduled appointment. Unless you take great notes, you will not have anything to review that was covered in therapy, relying only on your memory.  [$800-$5000]

The cost of a simple divorce averages $15,000 - $20,000, more when kids and assets are involved. The emotional cost and additional non-divorce costs are even greater. You’ll have to arrange your schedule and drive to an office with a scheduled appointment. It may also require a few court appearances.  [$15,000 - $50,000]

When you apply the knowledge in this course to your relationship, you will:

• Gain a better understanding and respect for yourself and your partner.
• Learn effective communication skills that help prevent problems and be able to solve problems as a team.
• Learn to avoid the poisons that destroy relationships.
• Be able to stop the fighting and conflicts and move into solving and supporting each other.
• Be able to create and build a strong foundation of values and principles to guide your relationship to success: on purpose.
• Learn proven strategies to nourish and strengthen your relationship that keep it healthy and happy.
• Have the knowledge and skills to repair and build a healthy relationship.
• Increase the love, connection, and passion that keeps the fire alive.

Overall, you will develop a happy, healthy relationship that will weather the storms and become stronger as a couple.

We know the concepts, principles, skills, and techniques presented in this series work and can help you create a healthy relationship. But it only works when you apply them, make them a part of your lifestyle, and practice them daily. It takes consistent practice to create new positive behaviors. It does not happen overnight. Some couples see results within a week; others may take a few months.   

To offer a money-back guarantee, you would have to prove that you and your partner applied all the concepts and practiced daily with intent. However, because humans are complicated, this would be impossible to prove. Therefore it would be dishonest to suggest that you could.  

Other programs that offer these kinds of guarantees make it impossible to get that refund (so that they can attest to a high success rate). Many require you to spend additional thousands talking to their coaches before considering the refund.
