Relationships Need

The real work of relationships isn’t occasional, it’s minute-to-minute. And this workshop will teach you those critical minute-to-minute skills that build and sustain true intimacy.
At the end of two days, you'll have the skills to:
- Override your knee-jerk reactions in heated moments to navigate conflict calmly.
- Break free from the losing strategies that block you from enjoying true intimacy.
- Complain without blame and get more of what you want from your relationship.
- Encourage, not discourage, your partner’s efforts, and celebrate progress.
- Let go of the battle of who’s right and work together to find a solution.
