Seven Transforming Conversations:

Recognizing Demon Dialogues—identify destructive remarks in order to get to the root of the problem and figure out what each is really trying to say.

Finding the Raw Spots—look beyond immediate, impulsive reactions to figure out what raw spots are being hit.

Revisiting a Rocky Moment—a platform for de-escalating conflict and repairing rifts to build emotional safety.

Hold Me Tight—The heart of the program: how to be more accessible, emotionally responsive, and deeply engaged with each other.

Forgiving Injuries—Injuries may be forgiven but they never disappear: how to find and offer forgiveness

Bonding Through Sex and Touch—how emotional connection creates great sex, and good sex creates deeper emotional connection.

Keeping Your Love Alive—love is a continual process of losing and finding emotional connection; be deliberate and mindful about maintaining connection.

"[An] appealing....honest, no-holds-barred approach. By creating complete emotional safety and by willing to be fearless about it, it seems to me, not only can real love be kept alive, it can flourish."  - Boston Globe
